L2 Empuraan controversy

L2 Empuraan has already stirred controversy for its portrayal of sensitive political issues, particularly references to the 2002 Gujarat riots. Hindutva groups argue that the film undermines their ideology and promotes an "anti-national" agenda.

The backlash has been especially strong on right-wing social media and among Hindu organizations in Kerala, with accusations of misrepresenting their faith and calls for a boycott.

Reports suggest that 17 scenes— including those depicting riot sequences and violence against women— will be edited out in response to the controversy.

The reduced earnings of the Mohanlal starrer movie also reflected in the footfalls. While the L2: Empuraan's occupancy rates for Tuesday are yet to trickle in, Monday's occupancy was significantly low.

On Monday, L2: Empuraan had an overall 66.48 per cent Malayalam occupancy on Monday, while it was 15.53 per cent in Telugu, 20.77 per cent in Tamil and 9.21 per cent in Hindi.

For the 2D version of L2: Empuraan's Malayalam version, the maximum occupancy was recorded at Kollam (90.33%), followed by Kottayam (88%), Thrissur (87%), Alappuzha (86.33%) and Kozhikode (78.67%).
