Kerala Story 2 Film's Title Controversy: PIL Moved in High Court Seeking Removal of Kerala from Film Title A public interest litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Kerala High Court seeking removal of the word "Kerala" from the title of a yet-to-be-released film, 'केरल स्टोरी 2' (Kerala Story 2). The petition claims that the use of the state's name in the title is an attempt to mislead and exploit the goodwill of the people of Kerala. The PIL has been filed by a local resident who argues that the inclusion of "Kerala" in the title is violative of the rights of the people and is an infringement on their intellectual property. The petition alleges that the film, which is produced by a private company, does not have any connection with Kerala or its culture. The petitioner claims that the use of the state's name is an attempt to create a false impression that the film has some connection with Kerala and its people. The PIL further argues that the inclusion of "Kerala" in the title is violative of the rights of the people and is an infringement on their intellectual property. The petition seeks a direction from the court to remove the word "Kerala" from the title of the film and also seeks compensation for the harm caused to the petitioner. The PIL has been filed under Article 226 of the Constitution, which provides for the power of the High Court to issue directions, orders or writs for the enforcement of fundamental rights. The court is yet to take a decision on the petition and it remains to be seen how the producers of the film will respond to these allegations. The controversy surrounding the title of the film has sparked off a heated debate in Kerala with many people questioning the use of the state's name without any connection to the state or its culture.#PIL #Kerala_High_Court #Article_226_Constitution #Kerala_Story_2_Film #Private_Company
