The movie already seems promising due to its plot combination between period time fantasy and modern age love story, which seems even intriguing as per the trailers suggests. But makers of Magadheera, which was directed by S. S. Rajamouli , think otherwise and they took the makers of Raabta to the court, accused of violating copyrights of Magadheera. And it can flip everything up as the release date for Raabta could be postponed.
Indeed, plagiarizing is a huge creative issue and can not only be offended or objectified by those who owns its copyright but can also damage the credibility of those who plagiarize the work. Bollywood mostly sidelines such disciplines and sometimes literally ‘copy-paste’ from one industry to another! Most of the time Bollywood movies get away with it but at rare incidences it backfires! Like in the case of Raabta !
Raabta ’s cast includes Sushant Singh Rajput , Kriti Sanon , Jim Sarbh , Varun Sharma which looks promising to the craft. And promotional activities for this film already began with a boom and such news can really be a big blow to the entire team. Ram Charan and Kajal Aggarwal staring Magaddheera, was a smash hit of 2009, and its producer Allu Aravind shows no signs of settlement. Although, Magadheera was also remade in Bengali as Yoddha; The Warrior, but it was followed by copyright amendments.
Now it all depends upon what the honorable court has to say about it. BollywoodMDB will keep you updated on such note.
