3 idiots - Chetan Bhagat controversy another post
Just so that I can make an authoritative comment on the controversy , I read the book 5 point some one. Chetan Bhagat's writing remains ordinary . God knows how he is so popular. I have read two of his books now - "2 stages" and "5 point some one" and 2 Stages though also mediocre is far better.
I think Raju Hirani has been fair to Chetan, the film is based on 5 point some one, but Chetan Bhagat shouldn't claim more credit than that.
The Movie is an amazing piece of work , refreshing, humorous, has a point of view. 5 point some one seems to be autobiographical in parts or a mix of many biographies of IIT students.

3 idiots - Chetan Bhagat controversy
Initially I felt that the Commercial film team of 3 idiots had taken advantage of Chetan Bhagat but after seeing the movie, the freshness and the humour of the movie could not have been written in 5 point someone. Earlier I felt that I should read the book before commenting but then felt that spending 5 hours wading through 5 point someone would not be worth my time.
English August and Namesake were completely based on the novels. The English August movie truncated the book substantially but the treatment was same.
The difference in the plot between the novel and movie is substantial and there should have been no reason for Chetan Bhagat to have felt aggrieved even if there were some similarities.

3 idiots - a must watch
Well it is already 10 months late to recommend the movie, but for all those who haven't seen it, watch it on Video, a really must watch, thoroughly enjoyable
It is amazing how each actor has acted his part, the attention to detail is just amazing
