Career Timeline
Controversial movie The Kerala Story
Kerala police have sought legal advice on a complaint regarding the movie of The Kerala Story teaser that has sparked controversy in the southern Indian state. The actress Adah Sharma claims in the teaser for the upcoming film The Kerala Story that her character is one of 32 000 women from the state who were ‘converted’ into Islamic terrorists.
The Kerala Story is at the centre of a political storm in Kerala with the CPI(M) and Congress opposing it and the BJP supporting filmmaker Sudipto Sen’s work. According to the trailer up to 32 000 Kerala women were ‘converted’ to Islam and forced to join the terrorist organisation Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS).
The Quint investigates the people behind The Kerala Story. The trailer release of Adah Sharma’s new film The Kerala Story has enraged both the director Sudipto Sen and the actress. According to reports the Kerala Police Chief has directed that a FIR be registered against the film after a complaint was filed; there are also calls to halt the film’s release.
Controversial Tweet
Furthermore netizens are criticising actress Adah Sharma for portraying the film as a ‘true story’ and fueling the fire that is Islamophobia in the country.
The controversy began when Adah shared the trailer on her Twitter account with the hashtag #True Story leading people to believe that mass conversions are currently taking place in the state of Kerala.
Furthermore the video went viral on the internet with many users sharing it and claiming it was a true story.
Because none of the claims were supported by evidence netizens were quick to point out that the film was an attempt to spread propaganda and islamophobia in the country. They stated as follows:
Net Worth and Income
The amount of assets that exceed liabilities is referred to as net worth. Cash real estate and anything else of value are examples of assets. It is the value of everything you own less everything you own. Net worth is not calculated on a yearly basis. So how much is Amyra Dastur currently worth? Adah Sharma has a net worth of $1.1 million dollars. The aforementioned details about Amyra Dastur’s net worth were taken from a number of websites and news articles. The figures on the website are not guaranteed to be entirely accurate.
Struggles
Adah Sharma rose to prominence in Vikram Bhatt’s supernatural horror film ‘1920 ‘ in which she co-starred with Rajneesh Duggal. The actress went on to appear in several classic films including Hasee Toh Phasee Commando 2 and Bypass Road. Adah has also been in a number of music videos and short films. Adha’s journey on the other hand was far from easy. In a recent interview the actress discussed her rocky start in the industry and how difficult it was to establish her name.
‘People believe you are that character in your first film. However casting someone in another film for those who wear blinders is extremely difficult. We didn’t know anyone when I first started in the industry. But I pretended I could act and dance. Of course I’ll get some movies. But then you realise there were no rules to follow. ‘You realise that if you’re not from the industry it’s difficult to get opportunities ‘ the actress told Hindustan Times.
Adah also recalled an incident in which she was replaced in a film by another actress without being informed. ‘Of course I wept. I remember signing a contract for a film and then reading in the paper that someone else had gotten the film. And I asked ‘How?’ I was devastated and disappointed. It feels like the end of the world at that moment. But you can only dwell for so long. ‘You must be comfortable with rejection ‘ she added.
Meanwhile Adah Sharma made headlines in 2020 when she discussed the casting couch in another interview. Back then the actress stated that the casting couch is a reality that is found in all film industries not just South India or Bollywood. ‘It’s entirely up to you whether you want to sit stand or sleep on the couch ‘ she explained.
