The almost two-minute clip, reported by independent digital platform The News Minute, shows a Hindu couple tying the knot in a mosque in Kerala’s Alappuzha city. According to the video, the bride’s mother who was struggling financially had approached the mosque’s committee for help with her daughter’s wedding. Rahman’s tweet comes amid the ongoing controversy surrounding ‘The Kerala Story’.
Filmmaker Vipul Amrutlal Shah’s The Kerala Story has been creating headlines ever since its trailer was released. It revolves around the stories of Hindu women of Kerala who were converted to Islam and trafficked to ISIS and other Islamic war zones in 2018-2019. It reportedly unearths the events behind approximately 32,000 women allegedly going missing in Kerala and are said to have been radicalised and deployed in terror missions in India and the world. The trailer of the film triggered protests in Kerala and some parts of the country along with some political parties calling for a ban on the screening of the film.
In an exclusive chat with News18, Vipul Shah recently addressed the controversies surrounding the film, owing to its subject. Although he believes that they are simply portraying the “truth” through the movie, he feels that political parties have the right to express their dissent as it’s “a sign of a healthy democracy.”
