Najeem Koya is one of the famous screenwriters in Malayalam. Najeem Koya wrote the script for the movie Friday. Chera is Najeem Koya’s next scripted film. The film is directed by Lijin Jose. The film is produced by Arun. The first look poster of the movie was released last day.
The film stars Nimisha Sajayan and Roshan Mathew in the lead roles. The first look poster of the movie which was released last day is now causing controversy on social media. Nimisha Sajayan appears as the Virgin Mary in the poster. Roshan Mathew appears as Jesus Christ. This has now become the subject of much controversy.
Interestingly, the entire critique is against the screenwriter of the film. As usual it is clear that the problem here is not the idea of the film, but the religion of the person writing it. Some people claim that Chera spreads anti-Christianity. They also allege that anti-Christian propaganda has been on the rise in Malayalam cinema recently.
Meanwhile, an old Facebook post by Najeem Koya is noticed. Najeem Koya shared this post when the movie Malik was released. Najeem Koya claimed that the film portrays Islam badly. “Malik, who has wisely avoided the Left and the BJP, is Islam but smuggling, guns and hiding life in Lakshadweep,” Najeem Koya shared on Facebook. This post has now become remarkable again. It is alleged that this reveals the author’s double standards. At the same time, some claim that Najeem Koya is portraying Malik as anti-Islamic while at the same time spreading anti-Christian propaganda through another film. But a large section of people are of the opinion that there is no basis for this and that we should wait until the film is released.
