Presently famous writer Chetan Bhagat, who wrote novel “Five Point Someone” is accusing production team of movie “3 Idiots” for not giving him full credit for story of film which is based on his book; however, film production has denied his claim by saying that they own copy right of his work (which permits them to use story from book and give credit to Chetan Bhagat at the end of film) plus they have made significant changes to script of film; therefore, no credits can be given to Chetan. While Chetan Bhagat believes that most of film is based on his book; therefore, he should be given due credit for this film like a saying in the beginning of film “This film is based on Chetan Bhagat’s Novel “Five points Someone”.
Even Amir Khan has written against Chetan Bhagat in his blog that he is trying to take credit of film script away from “3 idiots” script writer Abhijat Joshi. However, anybody who has watched this film and read book “Five points Someone” already known that movie “3 Idiots” is mostly based on Chetan Bhagat’s novel; therefore, Chetan Bhagat is right if he is asking for small credit; however, it is also important to verify that Chetan Bhagat has signed any agreement with film production team as stated by them or not. Movie “3 Idiots” has taken many parts exactly as written in book and many others by making small changes.
It is wrong on the part of producer/director Rajkumar Hirani and Amir Khan, if they deny Chetan Bhagat due credit. Similarly, it is important for Chetan Bhagat to tell only truth. Hopefully, this controversy will die soon and both parties will resolve this issue amicably.
