Vinod Kapri (1972) is a film director and writer born in Mumbai. Having worked for over 20 years as a journalist on various Indian TV channels, his films are also marked by sharp social criticism. Vinod Kapri entered the film industry in 2014 with the documentary “Can't Take This Shit Anymore”, which boldly addressed the issue of the lack of toilets in India. This was followed a year later by Kapri's first feature film, the political satire “Miss Tanakpur Haazir Ho”, based on real events, which attracted over a million viewers in cinemas. The director’s second feature film, the social thriller “Pihu” (2018), was also inspired by real life, telling the story of a two-year-old girl trapped alone at home. In 2021, Vinod Kapri made the documentary “1232 KMS”, about the lives of India’s migrant workers during the COVID-19 lockdown.
