The discussion surrounding the possibility of girls in Kerala being converted to Islam and then sent to join ISIS is a prevalent topic since the release of The Kerala Story trailer. There are conflicting views on the matter, with some people believing it to be factual and others claiming it to be a propaganda campaign. The question of how many girls have been affected by this phenomenon remains unclear.
Numerous reports and incidents have surfaced in recent times related to the soon-to-be-released movie "The Kerala Story," starring Adah Sharma. The film's plot revolves around the story of Shalini Unnikrishnan, a nursing college student from Kerala. The movie portrays how young Muslim men trap Shalini and her friend in a love affair, abandon her after getting pregnant, and eventually take her to Syria. The story raises questions about the fate of Shalini's family. The movie presents this narrative in a captivating manner. However, the trailer has faced criticism, and a Muslim organization has offered a reward of Rs 1 crore for evidence to support the claims made in the film. The film is set to release on May 5.
