Is Undekhi series a true story?

Undekhi is taken from a real-life incident in which a dancer was shot by a drunk man during a marriage as she rejected his advances. Everyone witnesses the shooting, but no one comes forward to speak the truth. The only remaining documentation is on the camera of a journalist who was there. His relaxed capture of the group takes a serious turn as the rolling camera turns to the sound of the gunshot. The makers have however not mentioned which particular incident the much-acclaimed series is based on.

According to the daily guardian, creator Sidharth Sengupta said that the show is inspired by a true event and sheds light on the dark realities of human existence. He also said that this story is what one needs to see, believe, and act accordingly. Sidharth has revealed that Undekhi also makes an impactful comment about the dynamics of power in our society and our helplessness and obedience to it.
