Finally Kerala Story all set for OTT streaming

Finally Kerala Story all set for OTT streaming. The Kerala Story, starring Adah Sharma, is set to make its digital debut on ZEE5 on February 16, 2024. The film, directed by Sudipto Sen and produced by Vipul Amrutlal Shah and Aashin A Shah, garnered significant attention during its theatrical run and is now poised to captivate audiences on the streaming platform.

Adah Sharma took to Instagram to share the news, posting a video with the caption, "FINALLY !!!!! SURPRISE !! The most anticipated film is dropping soon on ZEE5! #TheKeralaStory premieres on 16th February, only on #ZEE5." Fans expressed their excitement in the comments section, eagerly anticipating the film's release.

The Kerala Story, a compelling narrative that resonated with audiences, emerged as the top profit-making and successful Hindi film in terms of ROI in 2023. Vipul Amrutlal Shah's cinematic gem touched the hearts of millions, grossing 288.04 crores in India and 15.64 crores overseas, for a worldwide gross collection of ₹303.97 crores.

The film's premise centers around the alleged risk of young women in Kerala being influenced and brainwashed into joining terrorist organizations. The initial portrayal of the story, involving over 32,000 Kerala women allegedly influenced by Islamic fundamentalists, sparked online backlash and controversy. In response, the number was later revised down to three women.

Amidst the controversy, producer Vipul Amrutlal Shah defended the film's intent, stating, "When we present our facts and figures, people will get the answers. Whether they choose to accept them or not is their choice. Director Sudipto Sen has researched extensively for four years before starting the film. We are making a film on a big tragedy. If I feel that I want to tell this story as a filmmaker, then, discussion on whether I am pro-establishment or not will only reflect an individual's point of view."

The Kerala Story features a talented cast, including Yogita Bihani, Sonia Balani, and Siddhi Idnani, alongside Adah Sharma in key roles. The film's OTT release on ZEE5 promises to provide viewers with an immersive and thought-provoking cinematic experience.
