The Division Bench of the Kerala High Court has lifted the stay on the release of Kerala Story 2, clearing the way for the film to hit theatres as scheduled.

The Bench comprising Justices SA Dharmadhikari and PV Balakrishnan set aside the interim order passed by Justice Bechu Kurian Thomas, which had earlier stayed the film’s release for 15 days.

With the Division Bench vacating the interim stay, the film is now free to be released as originally planned.
