While nothing much has been revealed about the film, Shah's upcoming film is said to be another shocker and eye-opener film that is said to be inspired by another true incident.   'The Kerala Story' polarised the political discourse in the country over its portrayal of how women from Kerala were forced to convert and recruited by the terror group Islamic State (IS). Directed by Sen and produced by Shah, it was released on May 5.  The movie, which emerged as one of 2023's most successful films at the box office with over Rs 200 crore in reported earnings, was banned by the West Bengal government, fearing tensions among communities. Theatres in Tamil Nadu decided to stop the screening, citing the law-and-order situation and a poor audience turnout.  It also received tax-free status in BJP-ruled states, including Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Haryana.  'The Kerala Story' starred Adah Sharma, Yogita Bihani, Sonia Balani and Siddhi Idnani.  Vipul Amrutlal Shah, is popularly known for his filmography with films like ‘Aankhen’, 'Holiday', 'Force', 'Commando', ‘Waqt’, ‘Namastey London’, ‘Singh Is King’ , 'The Kerala Story', Sanak, amongst many others.
