Newbie director-writer files complaint against Yash Raj FilmsYash Raj Films has been accused by a newbie director-writer for stealing her story idea and made into the movie “New York”.
According to Suchita Bhhatia, she had narrated her story idea to Yash Raj Films three years ago. At that time, despite her writing to them several times, Suchita did not get any response from YRF. And now, she is shocked to see that her story idea has been made into “New York”, and that too without her knowledge. She has also not been credited.
However, Suchita is not giving up easily. Since her script was registered with the Writer’s Association in 2006, she has filed a complaint with them and also written about the same to Aditya Chopra, who is also the producer of the film.
While YRF has not responded to the accusation, “New York” director has dismissed Suchita’s claim. “It’s ridiculous that people use a popular film to get cheap publicity and five minutes of fame,” he has said.
The story of “New York” has been credited to producer Aditya Chopra. Off late, he seems to have been running out of original ideas and looking at past Yash Raj Films for inspiration and rehashing them in new films. So he could be facing a shortage of good stories. Let’s hope Suchita’s claims are not true.
