Anna M.M. Vetticad The Quint Mar 13
For women who back Hindutva, Kerala Story 2 is an unwitting reminder of the subordination awaiting them in a Hindu Rashtra. It’s also a horrifyingly hate-filled film, with loud and tacky presentation to boot. Go to Full Review

The overcooked cinematic harangue proves that while it may be easy to profit monetarily from alarmist postulations, agenda-driven filmmaking can sink quickly and completely into inanity when not backed by solid research and rigour. Go to Full Review

Whether one agrees with its politics or not, what is undeniable is that nuance is sacrificed at the altar of impact. And when outrage becomes the aim, the medium suffers as much as the message. Go to Full Review
Nandini Ramnath Scroll.in Mar 3
...the movie states its agenda plainly, forcefully and without inhibition: to portray an entire community as unfeeling villains whose only goal is to expand their flock by any means possible... Go to Full Review

It could have genuinely been a gripping and jolting film had the makers relied more on coherence than cacophony. Go to Full Review
Abhishek Srivastava The Times of India Mar 3
1.5/5
The film lives up to its title by going to extremes in its depiction of women trapped in forced marriages and conversions. Though it claims to be based on real events, its strong and one-sided tone clearly shows a fixed narrative. Go to Full Review

Devesh B @RT69289867 5d Cinema was used as a tool by Nazis to create hate against a particular community. We see the same happening here in India. Both were Right wing extreme perspective. As a cinema, the direction is below average and the actors , Poor acting at their best. I watched the movie knowing its a propaganda movie, but the movie quality so low it turned up to be a waste of my time. Actors like these are parasites who cant live on their own skill, rather they wait for any given opportunity even if it means selling their soul and morals. India has amazing cinema and movies, this is just another entertainment for people who feed on hate and carry the burden to hate everyone who are not them. See more Shanto 9 @RT85129082 Mar 13 Every non Muslim girls and their family should be must watch It's based on true stories and i can relate this . It's not only happening in India it's happening all over the world. In the name of love they will convert you Their mission is to convert you and increase their population It's a part of gazwa e hind . They are terrorists Don't make and frindship with Muslims See more Smitha N @User211 Mar 8 This movie is a must watch for all young girls to understand that a simple mistake of youth ends up as a costly mistake in life. There are enough cases to look up...learn from a movie to avoid real life mistakes. Also a lesson to parents to keep your kids close...the moment we let go someone is ready to snatch them away. Movie is brilliant and actors have done well. Unlike Kerala story 1 it's a smooth watch. Ending is powerful. See more viola R @ViolaRod Mar 3 A fantastic movie. One of the best i have seen especially when it is based on true stories. It doesn't matter the religion but the way the men manipulate lie and deceive these young girls. Ruining their lives. Women get raped and go into depression. Secluded from their families. All this happens in India. And nobody wants to talk about it and hats off to this film producer for depicting the truth. Yes it is harsh reality that we need to face and stand against men who treat their partner like this regardless of the religion. The worst part is Muslim men don't respect their women. Women are objects items and are used just to reproduce Thank you for such an amazing film See more AKSHAY C @Akshay747 Mar 1 Another national award for best film upcoming , padma shri and bharat ratna for director and producer and dada phalke award for both too and jnanapith for writer and parma shri for all actors (only for hindu actors obviously) and padma vibushan for all who gave a 5 star review for this filmn See more indian S @Arvind1957 Mar 1 हिंदू धर्म के अतिशय लचीलेपन और उदार खुलेपन को धर्मांतरण की एक वजह बताई गई है जिसके चलते लड़कियां आसानी से लव जिहादियों की चंगुल में फंस जाती हैं। लव जिहाद की तीन कहानियाँ समांतर चलती हैं। एक संगठित गिरोह धर्मांतरण में जुटा हुआ है जिसमें लड़कियों को फांसने के लिये अच्छी खासी, लाखों में फंडिंग का इंतजाम है। दलित और उंची जातियों की लड़कियों को फंसाने के अलग अलग रेट हैं। एक बार इस धर्मांतरण के गिरोह में फंसने के बाद लड़कियों की सारी आजाद खयाली जहन्नुम की भेंट हो जाती है। शरीयत के कड़े प्रतिबंध उन पर लागू हो जाते हैं। जिनमें शुद्धिकरण के नाम पर मुल्ला मौलवी और शौहर से अलग लोग भी फंसायी गयी लड़की के साथ बलात्कार करते हैं। आखिरी टार्गेट तो डेमोग्रैफी बदलाव से 2047 तक गजवाये हिंद के मंसूबे को सफल बनाना है। फिल्म के कई दृश्यों को और भी रियलिस्टिक बनाया जा सकता! निर्देशन की चूक कहीं कहीं खटकती है। बेहद तीखे और संवेदनशील संवाद जैसे "काफिर लड़की एक पोटेंशियल फैमिली ट्री होती है उसे तोड़कर जोड़ लो तो नस्ल बदल जाती है"। या "अगले 25 वर्षों में भारत एक इस्लामी राज्य बन जायेगा।" #keralastory2review See more Read all reviews
