“Audiences Proved The People Wrong Who Called It A Propaganda Film,” Says Vipul Amrutlal Shah On The Kerala Story 2 Success
Vipul Amrutlal Shah is one of the most fearless filmmakers in the Indian film industry, known for bringing bold, hard-hitting, and thought-provoking stories to the big screen. After the massive success of The Kerala Story, which sparked nationwide conversations, he recently returned with The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond, which also turned out to be a major box office success. The film recently began streaming on ZEE5 and has become a massive hit on OTT as well, trending at the No.1 spot with huge viewership.
Celebrating the overwhelming response, Shah shared a special video thanking audiences for supporting the film despite criticism and propaganda allegations. In the video, he mentioned that many people attempted to stop audiences from watching the film, but viewers made it a huge success and proved everyone wrong.
Referring to the recent TCS Nashik incident, Shah stated that events similar to those shown in the film coming to light have made more people believe in the relevance of the story and sparked greater curiosity around the film. He also thanked audiences for exposing misinformation and showering immense love on both The Kerala Story films.
Sharing the video, he wrote, “Vipul Amrutlal Shah & Sunshine Pictures continue to tell stories that spark conversations and leave an impact. Thank you for supporting #TheKeralaStory2 and making its theatrical journey so memorable. Now streaming on ZEE5.
The Kerala Story 2 – Goes Beyond stars Ulka Gupta, Aditi Bhatia, and Aishwarya Ojha in pivotal roles and revolves around the heartbreaking journey of three young women whose lives are shattered by betrayal, forced conversion, manipulative marriages, and the loss of personal freedom. Directed by Kamakhya Narayan Singh, the film is produced by Vipul Amrutlal Shah and co-produced by Aashin A Shah under the banner of Sunshine Pictures.
On the other hand, Vipul Amrutlal Shah is set to bring compelling stories to the big screen with his upcoming projects. His next, The Silent Saviour: GOVERNOR, starring Manoj Bajpayee, is inspired by true events and explores India’s biggest economic crisis of the 1990s. The film is slated for release on June 12, 2026. Apart from this, he also has Hisaab, a gripping heist thriller directed by him, featuring acclaimed actors Jaideep Ahlawat and Shefali Shah in pivotal roles.
