Wishing the LAOT readers a very happy and prosperous New Year, nay, a New Decade. Right on the N.Y.Day, we have a very interesting controversy amidst us on Chetan Bhagat’s Five Point Someone being adapted for Aamir Khan’s new film, 3 Idiots without giving him due credit. I have not read FPS yet, but I would like to hear from IP experts like Shamnad and his colleagues at Spicy IP about the merits of Chetan’s claims. Chetan’s blog is here.
I saw the movie yesterday. and inspite of minor similarities. Mr. Bhagat's claim holds no water.
