Following the massive commercial success and polarizing reception of the 2023 original, the makers are back with a sequel titled The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond.

- Digital Purchase: It will likely be available to rent on the Prime Video Store or Apple TV shortly before its subscription release.

- The Controversy: The trailer has faced a massive “social media roast” from Kerala locals, particularly targeting a scene where a character refuses to eat beef. Additionally, a writ petition was filed in the Kerala High Court today (Feb 19) challenging the film’s certification.+1
