Was and based on a true story?

The movie "Hotel Mumbai" is based on the real-life terrorist attacks that took place at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai, India, on November 26, 2008. The film follows the stories of the hotel staff and guests who were caught up in the siege and their efforts to survive. The movie stays fairly close to the actual events, but there are some dramatizations and fictionalized elements for the sake of storytelling.
