'''''Miss Tanakpur Haazir Ho''''' ({{translationefn|Although the official translation is "Miss Tanakpur, be present", the actual connotations of this phrase are far more subtle. In the Indian system, when a witness is required in the court, the peon of the court, comes at the door of the court, and announces loudly, "''Witness X Haazir Ho''". The literal translates of this indeed is "Witness X, be present". However, the call is more in the tone of a court order rather than a request. In this story, a buffalo called Miss Tanakpur is supposed to be a survivor of rape. It is rare for a survivor of rape [formerly called "victim of rape" in India], to be called like this for several reasons. One, a rape survivor is never called by her name or even by an allusion to her. Furthermore, there is no such clarion call for the victim in any case - let alone a rape survivor; the call is only for witnesses. The name is actually a very powerful satire on the Indian Judicial system, where such kinds of absurd cases are entertained}}) is a 2015 Indian [[Hindi film|Hindi]] [[political satire]] film directed by [[Vinod Kapri]].
