Manish Gupta Who Directed A Film Based On The Talwar Case, Feels Many Questions Remain Unanswered

While a  majority is pleased with  the court’s verdict to acquit theTalwars in their child’s murder case , filmmaker Manish  Gupta who made a  film  Rahasya inspired by  the case, feels there are many unanswered questions.

Says  Gupta, “In my view, till the Supreme Court passes a judgement, the case will remain open to debate. There still is ambiguity surrounding the case. It has not been proven as to who the actual murderer   or  murderers  are. The servants have not been proven guilty. The defence has been putting forward the narco analysis test of Krishna, the compounder, but a narco analysis test is not considered conclusive or irrefutable evidence in court. Also, there have been 2 murders not one. There are so many people involved. The exact truth and exact sequence of events is not yet clear.”

Manish  is  clearly unconvinced  about the Talwars’ innocence. “There have been two murders,  not one. There are so many people involved. The exact truth and exact sequence of events is not yet clear.Who killed whom? And in what sequence? Did one person kill both Arushi and Hemraj?This is   avery difficult case to crack. Kissne kya kiya? Kuch pataa nahin.”

In fact Manish  Gupta’s film had been legally stopped by the  Talwars from release in 2015. Manish  and  his producers Viacom 18 Motion Pictures had to go through a long and arduous  legal process and  add a disclaimer that his film Rahasya was  not about the Talwar  murder case.
