Controversy and Criticism Surround 'The Kerala Story' Film

"The Kerala Story" is a film that tackles the controversial topic of the conversion of Hindu and Christian girls to Islam in Kerala and their involvement with extremist groups like ISIS. The movie is divided into two parts, with the first half portraying the girls' conversion process and the second half showing one girl's journey as a member of ISIS and her eventual escape. Adah Sharma delivers a compelling performance as the lead character, but the film's runtime can be problematic, and some scenes come across as heavy-handed and overtly dramatic. Overall, it is a bold attempt to present a sensitive and controversial subject.
