The movie is good and everyone else has written about the movie. What I wish to raise is an ethical question here. The movie is an adaptation of Chetan Bhagat's - "Five Point Someone" and we all know this. If you see Chetan's book - "The three mistakes of my life" then in the acknowledgment section, you can find that Chetan had the professional honesty and work ethics to give acknowledgment to Raju Hirani because at that time, Raju was working on his book for this movie.


What is ridiculous and a really noteworthy thing, is that a person who has passed out from FTII which I believe is the most elite institute for film making can fall so low in his work ethics that he has the guts to copy someone's published work and then have no courtesy to give any sort of credit to Chetan Bhagat for his story. This was nothing compared to the fact that Aamir Khan who is the self-proclaimed perfectionist has the courtesy to claim that there is no correlation between the book and the movie and this is just a publicity stunt.


The movie is 80% copy of this book and most of the punch lines are scene by scene copy from this book. I can say this because I have read this book. At least the movie "Hello" starring Salman Khan which was not much of a hit HAD GIVEN the due credits to Chetan on their movie and even on their hoardings.


Does Aamir Khan and his gang think that they can get away with this kind of stealth of an Intellectual Property? Seems arrogance has crossed the threshold for these people. What do we say in Sanskrit for this kind of activities? Yes - Vinaash Kaale Vipreet Buddhi.


I sincerely hope that Chetan Bhagat should take a stand on this copyright violation and IP stealth and sue the producers and director of this movie and really screw these "IDIOTS". The best wishes of all IIT and IIM community lies with him.
