Is there any real kidnapping case in India of an Ambassador's daughter?

The answer is no. There is no reported case that says that an Ambassador's daughter was kidnapped. Hence, it can be said that the element of adding an Ambassador's daughter getting kidnapped is to just add some curiosity in the movie.

However, there are separate reports of missing girls. For example, a report was published in 2025 by NDTV in which it stated that 145 children, including 93 girls have gone missing In Mumbai in 7 months.

The report stated that between June and December, a total of 145 children went missing from Mumbai, including 93 girls.

Of the 82 cases registered between November 1 and December 6, older teenagers were the most affected, accounting for more than half of the missing persons. This includes 41 girls and 13 boys up to the age of 18.
