Still disturbed after watching #BastarTheNaxalStory. It is a gut-wrenching, soul-searing film that lays bare the anatomy of Maoist violence. Every incident of violence shown in the movie has happened in real life, in a much more brutal way, including the brutal slaughter of Salwa… pic.twitter.com/IKk7udo6wT

Saw preview of #BastarTheNaxalStory – relentless, grim, mind numbing – as brutal as the Maoists, as determined as the police & CRPF forces. Haunting music & songs. @adah_sharma lives the role of IPS officer. Great support by the local cast. Watch with stout heart & feel the evil. pic.twitter.com/i2o9QZnPVw

The movie has made a significant impact on the audience and has garnered high praise. At some screenings, it even received a standing ovation, and Adah Sharma’s portrayal of IPS Neerja Madhavan has been particularly lauded by the viewers.
The audiences have given their acceptance to the film made by the creators of ‘The Kerala Story’. The story, characterizations, music, and factual information have all been executed perfectly by the makers, resulting in the presentation of the most impactful story to the audiences.
The content of the movie is quite alarming, and it is bound to leave a lasting impression on everyone who watches it. It appears to be loosely based on the tragic event that occurred in 2010 when 76 CRPF Jawans lost their lives in the Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh. However, the film doesn’t just focus on this event, it also sheds light on a group of ‘INU’ students who are seen rejoicing over the death of ’76 dogs’, as one of the students refers to them. Additionally, it also touches upon the year 2013 when the Salwa Judum chief was killed.
Produced by Vipul Amrutlal Shah’s Sunshine Pictures and co-produced by Aashin A. Shah, ‘Bastar: The Naxal Story’ is directed by Sudipto Sen and will have Adah Sharma in the lead. The film is now released in cinemas worldwide.
