These news may be believable or not, it doesn't change either the state-demeaning movie title nor the content focussing on further targetting o n e religion the current politics want to demonize. In the contrary, the 16 year old ones allowed and with the (forced?) disclaimer it seems to get made like an 'educational' movie... I won't be surprised to get to know that school classes would attend it.

Kerala State name changed to Keralam

Even government-backed movies can't escape that (social) media spin their own narratives

People on both sides are obsessed with the Kerala part of it. But the main issue is the story part. There is no story, is there ? Or all there is is a story. However you want to look at it. When they say it's a pan India problem nobody is asking " WHAT is ?" Islamic radicalisation is nothing new. But if you're gonna link it to a medieval fantasy if thousands of women being kidnapped by terrorists and forced into slavery you have to explain why law enforcement has no clue about this. They have a better shot at claiming there are monsters living under the bed 😆

This 'MeerraChopraa' (pro Modi media personality) is already a willful 'victim'... actually, like BavitaSarbie, I also would like to question the government, what exactly they did since all the years since they had started their concerted anti-Muslim campaign against the alleged 'real' existing crimes of 'mass-love-jihad'...

The same Twitter person reposts the (alleged?) testimonies of women forced into Islam with the comment "People will still say that its a propaganda movie. Himmat is what u need to accept the reality, and very few have that."

As "himmat" was a new word to me, I asked AI and got:

"Himmat is a word of Persian and Hindi-Urdu origin meaning: courage, bravery, determination, and strength of character. It refers to emotional fortitude, the resolve to face adversity without despair, and audacity. It is commonly used in South Asia to describe grit, guts, and high-spiritedness." (Persian! Urdu!)

To be honest, now, in view of making shoot a movie about the military retaliation to the Pahalgam murders (eventually leading nowhere except to flexing muscles) makes me wonder, what kind of "himmat" really had been shown in almost 12 years (apart from the determination to use the filmindustry and media to spread a certain thinking).

Honestly, I can relate to this verdict... already for the preceeding movie, it was - to me - a no-go to name a specific Indian state...and I accuse(d) the current government to further dividing in a country they VOWED to work for... in their 12 years, I came across a lot of anything else than care for the COUNTRY. (Maybe with a view from the distance, I'm less influenced by the narrative this government spreads since 12 years already and get to know more about how they loot the people and only focus on THEIR PERSONAL INTERESTS)

Please excuse the big letters... I'm so angry what is done to a country and people I love... always I'll damn what the British (and other Western countries) and Indian people with extreme power and greed do/did...

Gosh, I felt so much 'at home' (my inner home) every time I was there before 2014...
