'India's Daughter' was originally sold as Delhi, the rape capital of the world

When the documentary India's Daughter was sold, it was marketed as Delhi- the rape capital of the world. A documentary which was not meant to be commercialized is alleged to have raised funds by giving a sensational title, investigations have found. There are more discrepancies that have cropped up while investigating the Nirbhaya documentary shot by Leslee Udwin. There was a huge outrage over the documentary which showed a death row convict justify the rape and murder and this led to the Home Ministry banning the documentary. A full fledged investigation into the shooting of the documentary has been launched and the ongoing probe show that several norms were violated.
