New Delhi, Jun 12 (PTI) After chasing fugitives with his crime-busting reality show 'India's Most Wanted', Suhaib Ilyasi is now turning director with a film on the alleged "misuse" of section 498A of the Indian Penal Code.
Titled '498A', Ilyasi says the film is inspired by various cases from real life where women have used the section wrongly resulting in much chagrin for men.
"The section came into being in 1961 to empower women to fight against oppression incurred on them by men. But it has turned out to be a tool misused by the fairer sex, leading to gross violation of the basic human rights of men," Ilyasi told PTI.
His film tells the story of a NRI family, which comes to India looking for a bride for the son but their peace is disrupted after the marriage turns into a sour affair.
