Few things from the Idiot box

Dec 24
The Union cabinet on thursday approved amendments to the copyright act of 1957 for introduction in parliament. one amendment will give "independent rights to authors of literary and musical works in cinematographic films, whichwere hitherto denied and wrongfully exploited by producers and music companies" said information and technology minister Ambika Soni

Dec 25
The most awaited movie of the year '3 Idiots' based on the novel of India's best selling writer Chetan Bhagat , is released grossing 9 crores on the first day itself!

Dec 30
Chetan Bhagat is upset that he has not been given due credit as a writer

To this the team of '3 Idiots' stands united against Chetan chaiming that the script is etirely the genius of writer Abhijat Joshi and Chetan has been given due credit both monetaily and by mentioning his name towards the end of the movie

Chetan Bhagat says that the truth need not be explained, both the book and the movie are in front of the audience, he is only hurt because of not giving credit and thats about it

Case 1: Chetan is given the credit
Then the two biggest benefits will be he will no longer be hurt and he will have a chance to amass more wealth...but does he want it?

Case 2: Chetan is denied the credit
Then Chetan will continue to be hurt and he will not have a chance to amass more wealth.
Probably Vidhu Vinod, Raju and Aamir will be happy...should they really be?

Case 3: In any case
There is always a chance for some budding writer to write a book named
'Chetan and the 3 Idiots'

It is so true...'life is a race',
hey...wait a sec...was this satement from movie, or a book...
well...I think I should end this blog right here before 'I' get into any controversy myself.
