We are excited as Taapsee Pannu and Bhumi Pednekar have released the trailer of biopic Saand Ki Aankh, which is based on the lives of world’s oldest sharpshooters, Chandro Tomar, and Prakashi Tomar.
50 years old, Chandro Tomar and Prakashi Tomar, who are sisters-in-law, picked up guns for the sake of their daughters in the hope of encouraging them towards a bright future.
They did not want their daughters to share the same fate as them and lead a life of suppression. But, during this time they discovered their own skill of being exceptional shooters.
Despite all the odds, they won 352 medals each in the course of their veteran professional life as a shooter.
The movie, placed in Johri village in the interiors of Uttar Pradesh, chronicles this inspiring journey of Chandro and Prakashi. From discovering their innate talent for sharpshooting to fighting gender bias in the village, and ultimately, winning medals for their skills.
