The Hindi drama film The Kerala Story 2, which has recently been in the news for its portrayal of alleged forced conversions in the state, ran into legal trouble on Thursday, February 26, 2026, when the Kerala High Court stayed its release for 15 days.
After hearing a petition challenging the order, the Division Bench directed the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to review the film again. For the unversed, the movie was scheduled for release on Friday, February 27, 2026. However, viewers were left confused as tickets were still available on online booking platform (at the time of writing).
