    Honest and ethical movie about 1921 mapila lahala

    Firstly👌a big salute DIRECTOR Ali Akbar, done a fantastic job and honestly portrayed about 1921 lahala according to madavan nairs book written on mapila lahala. The author was a member of khilafath. So one time to watch and must show our teenagers also.

    . The history is written by the winners. As some of our text books and politicians says it is a freedom struggle. Actually itbwas not. If it was a freedom struggle why 8t is happened in malappuram district only. Not happened in other dustricts. When we see this film we will be realiswd about that. It is not against islam or Muslim people. But it is against communalists and terrorists.

    A real story

    Movie This was a horrific incident that happened in our area. I have had first hand information from many grandparents and their friends when I was a kid. For years due to politics and fake secularism they were twisting and hiding about this. Finally now, at least some relief to the countless Hindus who were brutally murdered for trusting some. There are so many documented evidences from British records in spite of many evidences burnt away! This is a must watch for all people of India. Forgive but not forget the history. Truth has finally made its way to people. Thanks to the director and team.

    Great acting by the crew. Of course, VFX in certain places could have been better but with the political pressure, gundaism, lack of producers, lack of actors willing to act being scared and so many other struggles. This team has brought the truth to the people. Hats off to the whole crew. The souls of those people who died in this mapla lahla will thank this team that finally their voice came out to the public. I sincerely hope people are matured enough to watch history as it is. It is what it is. No need to hide anything what happened.

    Must watch to realise our history

    Helped me to understand the reality, unfortunately our education system doesn't depicts anything about this incident.

    One should watch this to understand real struggle faced by majority of people on basis of religion , and how false narrative by our historian who mixed it with freedom fighters/fighting to call this movement as freedom fight.

    Director tried his level best to capture the history very well and story and crew justifies his efforts.

    Thanks for making such a beautiful movie and hope it will be released in OTT sooner and no political party or politicians will Stop screening this movie.

    Truth finally comes out, time couldn't steal it

    The film is an actualistic picturisation of the reality behind Mopila Riots.

    The same had been twisted, tweeked and historically distorted by many with evil, devilish intensions.

    Even though the film doesn't have a Hero, the director Rama Simhan turns out to be the real Hero of the Hindu revival by leading from the front against all odds thrown on him in every steps, by anti human elements.

    This could be the first time in the history of cinema that a film was produced via public funding and this includes myself as well.

    The director and the actors of which almost all are new faces did a good job under the tuff situations they faced all over during the shooting, production and release process of this historic film.

    This film which started as a small water stream have turned out into a river and will soon merge to be part of Ocean.

    Sunamis are sure to hit the Societies marking the begining of the end of the demonic, evil creatures.

    The film no doubt will be remembered as a historic mirroring which created decisive turn around in the though process of millions, towards the betterment of the society.
