The case of the pilot in the film is based on a real-life incident that was reported in the newspapers about 6-7 years ago. These issues have come up from time to time, like many other malpractices and their resulting debacles, and made headlines for a couple of days. But that is about it. It makes me sad to say that in a country of teeming millions, the life of the average citizen is hardly a matter of concern for the powers that be, whether they belong to the left or the right.
