The Kerala Story continued to remain absent from Bengal’s movie halls for a second day in a row on May 20 as theatre-owners remained aloof from screening the controversial film.
The Supreme Court had overturned a West Bengal government ban on the movie on May 18 and its distributors had tried to interest theatre owners in picking it up, without much success till now.
Satadeep Saha, distributor of the film in Bengal, told PTI, "There is no change in the situation … no theatre owner has said yes as yet (to showing the film)".
