I loved 3 idiots, ...pretty late in reading this. :)<br />I loved 3 idiots, I thought it was brillaintly made and I agree to the fact that the movie is pretty loosely based on the book by Chetan. But honestly if I ever wrote a book that was a best seller (and that had nothing to do with the movie, more people might have read it later but the book was already a milestone of sorts when it was being considered for a movie) and someone made something even loosely inspired by it, I would go crazy if I wasn't given proper credit for it. And Chetan's name was defintiely blink and miss sorts. But I guess Chetan should have been more careful. You can't even trust your own shadow nowadays.. What was he thinking??!! :)athihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10894748673333657169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-11240055355271388112010-02-02T23:07:50.941+05:302010-02-02T23:07:50.941+05:30http://sharathnandinidesai.blogspot.com/http://sharathnandinidesai.blogspot.com/Sharath Nandini Desaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17381782053774388655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-26519439429667872602010-01-27T20:39:40.884+05:302010-01-27T20:39:40.884+05:30Personally, I liked 'Rocket Singh-Salesman of ...Personally, I liked 'Rocket Singh-Salesman of the Year,' than 3 idiots.Safe ePayments Motivatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00231088508595762949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-16645453119327788722010-01-24T15:08:50.267+05:302010-01-24T15:08:50.267+05:30its "five point someone" not " five...its "five point someone" not " five point something"atulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09894864749807485849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-42312836399095873742010-01-19T14:02:59.083+05:302010-01-19T14:02:59.083+05:30Hi Shobha,
I think we are getting to conclusions ...Hi Shobha,<br /><br />I think we are getting to conclusions without knowing the full picture. The same applies to me as well. :) interesting naa.<br /><br />As per the 3 idiots team http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/articleshow/5435595.cms, chetan has got what he agreed in the contract. I think its a strong claim and if it was wrong then chetan could/would have objected immediately saying that he has not got as per the contract. His silence on this issue proves a point that he has got the credit as per the agreement but may be what was orally committed he has not got it.<br /><br />I think one needs to simply go by the agreement and contract. If Chetan has a point then he should talk about whats in the contract. If he is not getting the credit as per the contract then we all should get into the act and do all it take to give chetan his due.<br /><br />My message to both chetan and 3 idiots team is <br /><br />Message for Chetan- <br /><br />Are we becoming greedy after seeing the success of the movie: The picture may be exact copy of the book, but if you have been paid a price for that and you are getting the credit the way its mentioned in the contract, then now why sudden twist after seeing that the movie has done good business<br /><br />Take it through right channel/way: If you are not getting what you were expecting then communicating through media may only reduce your chance of getting what you deserve. <br /><br />Message for the Three idiots team- <br /><br />Be little more generous in sharing your success: At the same time i also feel that the three idiots team could have been little more generous and should have shared their success little more with all those who were part of the film, I mean agreeing to give more credit to the author (not exactly the way he is demanding but definitely more than what is in the agreement). Giving more money to the artists who gave their best. Giving credit doesn’t cost you guys anyt money. Chetan is not asking for money.<br /><br />I may be wrong but this is what is my opinion.<br /><br />MukeshMKMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06993213884919645840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-36088855057350621172010-01-19T02:29:23.402+05:302010-01-19T02:29:23.402+05:30This comment has been removed by the author.MKMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06993213884919645840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-58750876403093036302010-01-16T10:52:27.475+05:302010-01-16T10:52:27.475+05:30yea preeti what u said is right but the very comme...yea preeti what u said is right but the very comments of shobhaa could actually be disturbing at times..Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10089611604684955223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-37639443494493666512010-01-16T03:39:05.757+05:302010-01-16T03:39:05.757+05:30Is this the same Shobhaa de who once said that Aam...Is this the same Shobhaa de who once said that Aamir Kha nwas most over rated actor in Bollywood?sasidharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06179281897371440090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-52586889318781899992010-01-15T22:42:09.636+05:302010-01-15T22:42:09.636+05:30YEAH...i love the way u get on the subject bang on...YEAH...i love the way u get on the subject bang on........no beating around the bush....but please don't change ur view on this later!Preeti and Ritwikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11285765288975111573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-15677124054788455622010-01-15T04:04:17.951+05:302010-01-15T04:04:17.951+05:30http://sudhishkamath.com/

Just like Chetan Baghat she needs Bollywood to stay in the news. I mean come on, a director who is so low profile even though his 2 previous movies have been blockbusters and a producer who has won an oscar during his rookie years surely do not have to steal the credit from a writer who was so desperate to jump onto the bandwagon once the movie was a blockbuster.

The lady has spoken. I was waiting with ...Finally!! The lady has spoken. I was waiting with bated breath for your take...and was finally begining to wonder that you just might shy away.<br />But good to see that shying away from controversial topics is not in your dictionary.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Back to 3i and FPS:</b> I totally agree with your take. How much of the book the story is based on is not the issue at all. <b>The point is that the movie <i>IS</i> based on the book.</b> Story is Bhagats, screenplay is Joshis. VVC may be legally correct in what he did, but frankly, when your movie is "based on" someone's book, you should have been generous enough to suggest that his credit would go up in the opening frames. <b>That you would negotiate it down in a contract to rolling credits at the end, shows how miserly VVC as a person is.</b><br />Secondly, VVC keeps saying that Abhijat has worked on the story himself for 2+ years. I have read the contract that VVC put up on their website. <b>It clearly states that Bhagat will be paid a sum of 1lakh only for the story AFTER the first moving media form of the story is COMPLETED!!</b> How hawkish is that. You BUY someone's story, lock it down for your exclusive use, your writer takes a go at it and beats it out of shape until it is bollywoodic enough for profit, then you go through pre-production drills, then you sign actors, pay them advance fees, then the movie hits the floors, you shoot, then post-production, and then first cut/editing - <b>NOW</b> you <b>FINALLY</b> pay the person who was the starting point for the whole formula. What crap is that?? Its like buying a brand new designer Kurti, altering it from your local darzi, wearing it till it grows on you, maybe even to a posh event, take some snaps in it, catches your deoderant stains, then give it to the dry cleaner, and when the snaps come out THEN FINALLY, pay the designer for his maal. <br /><b>WOW, if that is not blood-sucking-hawkish behavior, I dont know what is.</b> VVC is the scum of bollywood, and he showed it not once but thrice. Once with the miserly contract and the paltry sum he was ready to pay Bhagat, second with the location he proposed for Bhagats credit, and finally the crazy behavior with the reporters.<br /><br /><br /><br />Since you have so many responses, I dont know if you will get to mine. I hope u do!! <br />Love,<br /><b>the 'SO'</b>Sashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01199323789136835851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-8532218223822813632010-01-12T09:07:15.335+05:302010-01-12T09:07:15.335+05:30...and the fellow who broke into a spontaneous jig......and the fellow who broke into a spontaneous jig was Aamir not Boman!!yellowpencilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03783671729505414058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-30560240126663284762010-01-12T04:17:09.577+05:302010-01-12T04:17:09.577+05:30Ahh - such a nice take on the movie Ma De :)

He should be given due credit which he is not. However, he should have been careful about it when the negotiation n deal for the movie was done...not sure what was agreed upon at that time. <br /><br />Good post!Shachihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05008713817905152623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-20705663462324682532010-01-12T00:40:02.770+05:302010-01-12T00:40:02.770+05:30Harcharan Bains' blog : sunnymindcaves.blogspo...Harcharan Bains' blog : sunnymindcaves.blogspot.comharcharan bainshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01004823777396062116noreply@blogger.com
