The Kerala Story 2 Director Hits Back at Anurag Kashyap’s ‘Bull***t Propaganda’ Remark: ‘He's Become Mentally Weak’

Director Kamakhya Narayan Singh defends The Kerala Story 2 against Anurag Kashyap's propaganda claim, emphasizing scenes depict forced conversions based on real incidents, ahead of Feb 27 release.

  • Director Kamakhya Narayan Singh responded after Anurag Kashyap called the film `bull**** propaganda` and questioned a viral forced-beef scene, publicly rebutting him.
  • Produced by Vipul Amrutlal Shah, the film The Kerala Story 2 explores alleged forced conversions across Kerala, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh and releases on February 27, 2026.
  • Taking to social media, Kamakhya Narayan Singh said Kashyap has become `maansik roop se durbal hogaye hai` and insisted `Every scene of our film is based on true incidents`, offering to send research materials to Kashyap.
  • Just days before release, the exchange intensified debate over the film's politics and portrayal, with polarising visuals prompting online audiences to debate creative freedom, communal sensitivity, and cinematic responsibility, while supporters defended the depiction of forced conversions.
  • Producer Vipul Shah defended the film, saying it does not target Kerala and addressed criticism of the 32,000 figure with a YouTube video documenting names and figures amid critics alleging profit and division.
