‘The Kerala Story’ released nationwide on 6 May. The film is also doing consistently well at the box office, but on May 8, the West Bengal government banned the film, fearing that the law and order situation in the state would worsen. Describing the state government’s claim as baseless on Thursday (May 18), the Supreme Court lifted the ban.

Hearing the petitions, the CJI said that the film is running in other parts of the country, why can’t it be released in West Bengal? The court said, “West Bengal is no different from other parts of the country.”
