In The Name Of Tai - Tai Ke Naam' is inspired by a factual tragedy of slain activist Navleen Kumar's heroic, short yet audacious life. Ujjwal Thengdi is adamant to keep her precious life in a cherished memory through his film Tai.
The film is a female orientated story inspired by a true story of a dedicated well educated village woman (lawyer), respectfully known as Tai (Tai means elder sister) who chooses a valiant but a perilous avenue. She unfortunately suffers sexually (not rape!) as well as psychologically in her personal life, yet altruistically battles for a common cause of protecting acres of land owned by the village farmers and deprived poverty-stricken village community from the clutches of the corridor of Power, Builders, (The land sharks) and of course not forgetting the voracious politicians.
This story is inspired by a real story - that of an ordinary woman who struggled for 20 years against the powerful lobby of land mafia.
