What Is Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hai About? On Which Case Is It Based?
Inspired by actual events, the film is the story of an ordinary session court lawyer who fights for the truth and his five-year struggle to seek justice for the girls who were wronged by a godman. Manoj Bajpayee plays a lawyer, who fights for justice and the truth over all barriers, as is evident from the movie’s teaser and trailer. It is a remarkable story about one man’s fight for truth and justice in the face of extreme odds.
The movie is reportedly based on the 2013 rape case of a minor fought by Adv. P. C. Solanki against Asaram Bapu. As per asianage.com, Poonam Chand Solanki’s nerves of steel did not bend once while arguing against bail petitions by Asaram who tried 30 different lawyers including Ram Jethmalani, Salman Khursheed, Subramanian Swamy, and KTS Tulsi for his defence.
Solanki mostly argued the case in the trial court but there were times when he had to argue in the high court and Supreme Court as well. On one such occasion, he called the bluff of former union minister Salman Khursheed who, while seeking bail for Asaram, claimed that he was suffering from a serious illness. But, Solanki convinced the court to constitute a medical board to ascertain Asaram’s medical condition. The court agreed and the medical board nailed Asaram’s lie and the bail petition was rejected,” Poonam Chand revealed.
