A still L2: Empuran
Thiruvananthapuram Report of manufacturers of Mohanlal-Starr L2: Imapuran, directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, led a full-political dispute on Sunday (March 30, 2025) after a large-scale online backlash from right-wing supporters, considering “voluntary cut” in the film. With manufacturers.
Meanwhile, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) state president Rajiv Chandrashekhar, who had earlier enhanced his wishes to the actor and director, vowed not to watch the film. Baiklash was on what appears to be in the context of 2002 Gujarat Pogrome in the film.
Mr. Vijayan, who said that he went to watch the film on Saturday (March 29) on Saturday (March 29) amidst an elite campaign against the film and his actors, called for a joint stand to make films, watch and protect the right to disagree or disagree.
“The fact is that the film has referred to one of the most cruel massacres in the country, which has ever angered the Sangh Parivar, its planners. Not only the saffron party workers, but also the leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party. [BJP] And the Rashtur Swamsevak Sangh [RSS] Public threats are increasing. Even there have been reports that the producers are being forced to re -edit the film under this pressure. This atmosphere of fear created by the Sangh Parivar is worrying. It does not grow well to destroy a work of art for democracy for communal elements and to attack artists viciously, as it has taken a stand against communalism and shows its terror, “CM said in a Facebook post.
He further said that the freedom of expression of a citizen should be preserved in a democratic society. Violent calls to destroy and restrict artists are the latest manifestations of fascist approaches to destroy and restrict artists. He is a violation of democratic rights, he said.
‘A sign of cowardice’
Mr. Satheson accused the Sangh’s Parvar of cowardice and accused the threat and forcibly replacing the contents of art work.
“The Sangh Parivar does not have much understanding of history. They are also in the habit of distorting history. The Sangh Parivar feels that freedom of expression means that freedom for the work made in their favor. Their agenda is to celebrate such perverted works. No matter how much you try to cover it, the historical truth can never be erased.
Chandrasekhar gets backlash from BJP
Mr. Chandrashekhar, whose earlier post in support of the film before his release, received a backlash from BJP workers, said that any film that tries to make a story by distorting the truth is ruined to fail.
“I saw Lucifer and liked it. I said that I would watch the film Ampuran when I heard that this is Lucifer’s sequel. But now I know that the film’s producers themselves have made 17 improvements in the film and the film had such topics in the film.
The manufacturers of Impuran are considering seventeen cuts, including Baba Bajrangi’s name, which leads to the opposition crowd, which appears to be a reference to Bajrang Dal leader Babur Bajrangi for the punishment of life imprisonment for Naroda Patia massacre during the 2002 Pogrome.
