Directed by award-winning filmmaker Sudipto Sen, The Kerala Story will take on the journey of 4 women from being regular college students in Kerala to being part of one the most dreaded terror organizations in the world.
Adah Sharma leads the cast along with Yogita Bihani, Sonia Balani and Siddhi Idnani. The Kerala Story is based on a human tragedy as it unearths the events behind approximately 32,000 women going missing in the Indian southern state of Kerala who are brainwashed, converted, radicalised and deployed in terror missions in India and the world.
A few months back, the makers had released an explosive teaser featuring the lead actress Adah Sharma in her character of a converted Muslim woman Fatima Ba. The teaser took the nation by storm with strong reactions coming for both support and boycott.
The Kerala Story sparked controversies when its teaser was released. It created an international storm with its explosive content aking on the Islamic State (ISIS) with a story of non-Islamic women of Kerala who were converted and trafficked to ISIS and other Islamic war zones in 2018-2019.
The film will be releasing in theaters worldwide on 5th May and the much-anticipated trailer will be released tomorrow on Sunshine Pictures Youtube Channel.
