Based on real incident, 'Miss Tanakpur...' is a very intriguing subject

Journalist-turned-director Vinod Kapri says he decided to make "Miss Tanakpur Haazir Ho", a social satire based on real incidents, as he felt he could not do justice with it as a scribe. "There are some stories which you cannot say in two columns, or in half-an-hour time slot, some stories you need to tell with more detailing. And the incident which inspired me to work on 'Miss Tanakpur...' was one such story," Kapri told reporters. "It was a news about a boy who was sentenced five years of jail for raping a buffalo. I got intrigued by the story and visited the village in Rajasthan, met the boy, his family, the accusers, doctors, lawyers, veterinary doctors and interesting stories started to unfold," he said.
