Nawazuddin Siddiqui Comes in Support of The Kerala Story Ban

The Kerala Story, starring Adah Sharma and others, has been an unexpected movie office hit of the season in India.

The Kerala Story has gained a lot of attention in Bollywood this year, similar to how The Kashmir Files did last year. The movie, which also stars Adah Sharma, has been a surprise box office success of the year after grossing over 200 crores in India. Nawazuddin Siddiqui has spoke out against the movie’s recent prohibition in a few Indian states.

The audience has been split into two groups ever since the release of TKS, with one group embracing the movie and the other labelling it “propaganda.” The movie has been outlawed in Indian states like Tamil Nadu and West Bengal to prevent intercommunal strife. Despite the fact that many actors and filmmakers disagree with the idea of TKS, they do not advocate a ban. Here is what Nawaz has to say about it at this time.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui said, “I agree with him. But if a film or a novel is hurting someone, then that’s wrong. We don’t make films to hurt the audience or their sentiments.”

“We make films to foster social harmony and love among people. It’s our responsibility to propagate the same. But if a film has the power to break people and social harmony, it’s extremely wrong. Humein isse duniya ko jodna hai, todna nahi hai.”

At the Indian box office, The Kerala Story has made a staggering 206.97 crores nett in just 19 days.
