Initially, there were speculations in June 2023 regarding the film's readiness for online streaming, with director Sudipto Sen mentioning that they hadn't received any suitable offers from OTT platforms. The team behind "The Kerala Story" even claimed that the film industry seemed to be against them due to their success at the box office. Sen expressed, "It seems the film industry has ganged up to punish us."
The movie revolves around the lives of three girls: Shalini, Nimah, and Geetanjali, who are manipulated into converting to another religion by their roommate, Asifa. Divided into two parts, the film depicts the girls' journey into conversion and Shalini's subsequent involvement with a terrorist group and her imprisonment in Afghanistan.

Director Sudipto Sen expressed his thoughts on the OTT release, stating, "Tackling such a sensitive topic and translating it into a film is no small feat. But for those who haven't watched the film yet, I urge them to watch 'The Kerala Story' on ZEE5 for a transformational experience."
However, the film faced scrutiny right from its trailer release, with claims of exaggerated figures regarding missing women in Kerala. Despite objections, it emerged as one of the most successful films at the box office in 2023.
So mark your calendars for February 16th and get ready to embark on a gripping cinematic journey with "The Kerala Story" on Zee5!
