Is Kareena Kapoor's Daayra Inspired By 2019 Hyderabad Rape-Murder Case? Meghna Gulzar Says Film Draws From 'Many Cases'

Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran are teaming up for a new film called Daayra, directed by Meghna Gulzar. At the film's trailer launch in Mumbai on August 31, Meghna was questioned about whether Daayra is based on the 2019 Hyderabad rape and murder case. When asked, Meghna clarified that the film does not draw its inspiration from a single incident.

She explained that the team explored various cases to develop the story. Meghna stated, "We are touching on so many delicate subjects that having just one perspective, or just one case's facts, would have been very restrictive." She further added, "Because the issues we are discussing happen all over the country. It's not just one country, one state, or one region where these things occur; they happen frequently everywhere."
