Controversy swirls around the teaser of ‘The Kerala Story 2’, but India’s revered saints are standing firm in its defense. Helmed by director Kamakhya Narayan Singh, the clip masterfully weaves a tragic narrative of Hindu girls lured into love jihad and coerced into changing faiths.
While critics mobilize, voices from the saint society ring loud with approval. Ayodhya’s Jagatguru Parmhans Acharya pulled no punches. ‘Jihad through love is rampant. No Hindu girl escapes the crosshairs from birth. Delhi’s recent child rape case involving three from that community is a wake-up call. Those against the film seek national downfall with their woman-hating ideology. Time for ironclad anti-love jihad legislation.’
Fellow Ayodhya saint Sitaram Das Maharaj fired back at opponents. ‘This is raw truth on screen. Crime in honesty? Our girls’ dreams of medicine, engineering, judiciary are shattered in these snares. Foes are traitorous terrorists unworthy of Indian soil.’
Ravindra Puri from Nashik’s Akhil Bharatiya Akhada Parishad called for action. ‘The original exposed jihadists’ savagery against Hindu kin. They’ve peddled jihads endlessly. Sanatanis, defend your own – they’re aliens. The Kerala Story 2 rips off their veil.’
Swami Narayan Das in Rishikesh commended the exposure. ‘Forced faith change is profound sin. Though I shun cinema, reports confirm it depicts jihadists targeting our youth. Endorsing this is complicity in evil.’
The clash highlights fault lines in India’s social fabric, pitting truth-tellers against deniers. With saints amplifying the message, ‘The Kerala Story 2’ could catalyze real change in combating hidden threats to society.
