Ghajini release held!!

A huge disappointment for all the fans of Aamir Khan waiting for more than an year for his latest flick Ghajini. The film was slated to be released on the eve of Christmas and everything was setup for the release. Unfortunately, the High Court of Mumbai ordered a stay on the release of the film, in response to a petition filed against the makers of Ghajini for violating copyrights.
Ghajini was the remake of a Tamil film with the same name and also being directed by the same guy who directed the original version of the movie. However, in Bollywood, the film is produced by Gita Arts headed by Allu Arvind. Just before two days of the scheduled release, KBC has filed a case against Allu Arvind, saying that KBC has the rights to remake Ghajini and this led to a stay order on Ghajini’s release in Tamil Nadu.
Now A. Chandrasekharan also filed a similar case in Mumbai and thus the release of the film was held all over the country. In his complaint, Chandrasekharan made a statement that he was ’surprised, shocked and perplexed’ to learn the Gita Arts was remaking the film, without even purchasing the rights.
This film had started an year ago and the producers have given huge publicity. What the ‘fish’ are KBC and Chandrasekharan doing all through the year and why did they file the case a day before the release. All they want is to grab some money (in other words, beg for some money) and the best time to beg for this money is before the release!
