Footnotes
[edit]- ^ Although the official translation is "Miss Tanakpur, be present", the actual connotations of this phrase are far more subtle. In the Indian system, when a witness is required in the court, the peon of the court, comes at the door of the court, and announces loudly, "Witness X Haazir Ho". This indeed translates literally as "Witness X, be present in the court". However, the call is more in the tone of a court order rather than a request. In this story, a buffalo called Miss Tanakpur is supposed to be a survivor of rape. It is rare for a survivor of rape [formerly called "victim of rape" in India], to be called like this for several reasons. One, a rape survivor is never called by her name or even by an allusion to her. Furthermore, there is no such clarion call for the victim in any case - let alone a rape survivor; the call is only for witnesses. The name is actually a very powerful satire on the Indian Judicial system, where such kinds of absurd cases are entertained. The absurdity of the entire case is reflected very powerfully in the absurd name of the movie.
