“The Kerala Story” polarised the political discourse in the country as it depicted how women from Kerala were forced to convert and recruited by the terror group Islamic State (IS).
Directed by Sen and produced by Shah, it was released on May 5.
The movie, which emerged as one of the most successful films at the box office with over Rs 200 crore in reported earnings, was banned by the West Bengal government, fearing tensions among communities.
Theatres in Tamil Nadu had decided to stop the screening, citing the law-and-order situation and a poor audience turnout.
It also received tax-free status in BJP-ruled states such as Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Haryana.
“The Kerala Story” starred Adah Sharma, Yogita Bihani, Sonia Balani and Siddhi Idnani.
