The movie is quite controversial as it twists reality to target and tarnish specific castes.

The perpetrators in real life were Christians but portrayed as Hindus.

The Hindu villagers who in real life helped the victim seek justice are portrayed as casteists who hinder justice.

A lot of literature, news articles and movies are made to exacerbate the problem and create problems where none exist.

I don't doubt you, at all. Most of this catholic priest are from the upper caste community.

The leadership of Churches in India remains in the hands of upper-caste Christians, and they are as bad as their Hindu counterparts.

No the police and state apparatus was upper caste hindu. One of the police officers was Christian - no one else.

Two of the main perpetrators were christians, the movie deliberately substituted it with names and symbolism connected to a specific caste with the intent of falsely sowing discord between the communities while whitewashing the Christian angle.

Thanks to social media, this deliberate twisting of facts has come to light, but much of these stories manufactured by the evangelical groups as equally ridiculous as with Christian persecution or Caste atrocities.

^ India is like 3 different countries when sliced by caste. The highest castes are about as privileged as the typical Chinese. The middle are at sub saharan Africa levels. The bottom 25% constitute probably the most deprived population in the world. Better off than the Rohingyas but not by too much.

Not true, at all. It depends on your state of birth and the caste. A Dalit from a poor state like Bihar is underprivileged than a Dalit of Kerala or Tamil Nadu.

^ typical Chinese

Is it not racist?

I don't know how you see it as racist. He meant they have the same material standards as the average Chinese person (from the PRC)

If you check his comment history he has been trying to pin caste discrimination on the tiny Indian Christian community - 1% of the population. Indian right wing is focused on promoting Hindu exceptionalism.

As my comments go against the Hindu exceptionalism narrative, he is trying to discredit my comments in whichever way possible.

No.
