KOZHIKODE: Bringing clarity to the picture, P T Kunju Muhammed has said his movie 'Veeraputran' was a story taken from history and not a documentary film. Talking to the media here on Friday, the filmmaker said the controversy spreaders were looking at the movie through a small eyepiece and neglecting the big picture.“Mohammed Abdu Rahman Sahib was a dangerously honest man in real life. That was the factor that inspired me to make a movie about his life and work. I have based my movie on the novel, Muhammed Abdu Rahman, Oru Novel, by N P Muhammed, in which there is an idea of death following Abdu Rahman Sahib in the end. It is that idea I have tried to explain in the movie,” said the director.Soon after the movie was released there were allegations from many corners of society that history had been twisted and defamed many members of Indian independence struggle by depicting them as a part of conspiracy to murder Abdu Rahman Sahib.“My movie is completely based on the novel and is not a documentary. There are elements of fiction in the movie without doubt,” he said.
