The makers of Gulabo Sitabo have responded to allegations against writer Juhi Chaturvedi, by Akira Agarwal, son of the late author Rajeev Agarwal. Directed by Shoojit Sircar, Ayushmann Khurrana, Amitabh Bachchan-starrer is written by Juhi Chaturvedi, who also wrote in October with Piku.
Akira alleged that his father had submitted his '13, Mohandas Lane 'stories to Cinestaan India's Storytellercript Contest - developed by the Screenwriters Association (SWA), with Juhi having been a member of the court and thus found the story.
However, in a statement released by the filmmakers, it was alleged that Juhi never reached that mark. “The facts are, of course, that in 2017, Juhi shared the idea of a crooked old man with Mr Bachchan, who liked the idea and asked him to expand it. He then developed the concept and the idea was registered by him in May 2018. In addition, Juhi did not receive a copy of the document allegedly for copying. Anjum Rajabali and SWA have independently confirmed this. On May 29, 2020, the Greenwriters Association judges Juhi, ”the statement read.
“My conscience is clear and truthful on the matter. Gulabo Sitabo is my first job and I'm proud of it. I shared this idea with the director and lead actor of the film in early 2017. After that I subscribed to the movie concept note in May 2018. I did not have access to the so-called infringing text at any point in time, as alleged. "" - Juhi Chaturvedi, Author, Gulabo Sitabo
To confirm the same, Anjum Rajabali, chairman of the judge of the Cinestaan script Contest said the eight final documents submitted to the court were not met in '16, Mohandas Lane. '
He added, "Eight documents were sent to three other council members, Aamir Khan, Raju Hirani and Juhi Chaturvedi, for us to be read by me again. Of these, five were nominated for awards and counted in the correct order. During '16, Mohandas "Up to 20 people, did not make it to the last of the eight documents sent to Prison."
Producer Ronnie Lahiri of Rising Sun Films added that this was an attempt to harm Juhi and the film's image. "It is clear that the suspects are outraged as the SWA decision did not go to them. Delivering this notice to the media, harassing Juhi and the producers of Gulabo Sitabo on social media, seems like a deliberate attempt to insult Juhi and harm the film," he said.
