As the Adah Sharma-starrer 'The Kerala Story' is set for the OTT release, director Sudipto Sen shared that tackling such a sensitive topic and translating it into a film is no small feat.
As per the makers, the film is inspired by "incident". They also unveiled the poster which read, "hidden truth that will take the nation by a storm."
The apex court asked film producer to carry disclaimer that the film is a fictionalised version.
Following the release of 'The Kerala Story' in the UK, the team behind the film addressed the media to celebrate the success of the film. The film, according to its makers, is likely to cross the Rs 190-crore-mark in India today.
The movie's actress Ada Sharma, producer-director Vipul Shah and other crew members also watched the movie along with the CM, his wife and cabinet colleagues.
State government says multiplexes withdrew the film due to poor response.
Former Nagar Palika President of Naugaon Abhilasha Shivhare was the main person behind the free screening event for girls. She said the purpose was to connect the young girls to their culture and traditions.
After watching the movie, the chief minister tweeted, “Hearty congratulations and best wishes to all the people associated with this film."
The protestors demanded the State government to withdraw its order and lift the state-wide ban.
