I watched the movie after seeing positive reviews.
Sadly disappointed. As a Keralite it was pushing the limits of my intelligence and sense to watch the pathetic screenplay. Nursing students molested in a Mall in full public view, in Kerala?? No one reacts, not even mobile phone and online media warriors? Come on.
Nursing students seen taking pills given to them just as if it was the most normal thing to do. Even kids would be wary. Whoever wrote the screenplay needs to get a reality check.
A mother whose daughter is missing for long, gets a surprise call from her later from Afghanistan, and she has for her mushy dialogues, like how does it feel to be a mother.
I saw the Hindi version, for some inexplicable reason all actors speak Hindi with a Malayalam accent and Malyalam with a Hindi accent. You can't be both.
At the end, they say they have filed an RTI to verify their own claims of numbers. It's your own claim! You have to provide proof.
Some good cinematography. Other than that, the movie was a torture to watch.

Many hidden facts which was hidden from people and society. We always think that somethings is going upfront but behind there are many things took place to our own faiths. Many real and eye opening truth which was not revealed hats off to director and actor who worked on and made this movie a masterpiece with blockbuster. I really keep this movie to show to my kids now they are too small but once they get maturity i will show them every year so that they don't forget and always learn. Every one is superstar who worked on this movie. We don't need big names we need eye opening story. . . . . . .
Sometimes the truth is so ugly that you refuse to accept the facts because your conscious is not ready to digest it, but the fact is fact & facts never lies.
A progressive society will always prefer to showcase the dirty truth is... So we must insure to extend the reach of this story to every single girl of our country & the world in order to protect them from this trap by at least informing them to the realities of the society we live in.
No doubt it's one of those story which will surely open your eyes, it'll give you a goosebumps while showing the mirror to the society.
Apart from the story it's fantastic movie with outstanding direction and acting.

'The Kerala Story' narrates the tales of three young girls from various regions of Kerala, with the primary focus on the story of Shalini, who is abducted and subsequently converted to Islam. Shalini is then radicalized. And compelled to join ISIS as a terrorist.
'The Kerala Story' is centered around the alleged radicalization and conversion of young Hindu women to Islam in Kerala, after which they are forced to join ISIS. The film states that it's a true story of three young girls from different parts of Kerala.
Riveting story telling method combined with great performances, tight screenplay and crisp editing made it a master piece. What's disturbing is that it's all happened really in the country.
An eye opener for every girls and their families. Must watch.

I was skeptic to head out to watch this movie at first
So I went on the Internet to look for reality as depicted in the trailer and to my surprise a lot of what is in the trailer is in the news at many places
We already have an idea of love jihad but jihad being used in this form was totally different.
Now to the movie Movie is good Will push you emotionally to the edge Acting is good by all the characters Direction could be a little more realistic if it's based on true events without softening the blows Recommend to watch at least once Will leave a impression on you after you exit the hall Stay safe be aware and spread awareness.
