The makers of Raabta have denied the plagiarism allegations made by producer Allu Arvind. Arvind had filed had an injunction against the release of Sushant Singh Rajput-Kriti Sanon starrer, as according to him, the film is a copy of his 2009 Telugu production ‘Magadheera’. Both the films tell the tale of reincarnation and are love stories. Now, makers of Raabta have released a statement refuting Allu Arvind's claim. The statement reads: We find it extremely disrespectful when people from the industry belittle someone's hard work by using the words "plagiarised", "copied" nonchalantly and jump to conclusions, on the basis of a 2 minute 14 seconds trailer, without verifying the facts or waiting for the film to release for the public to give its verdict. "No one can claim copyrights in ideas and plots" has been the basic essence of copyright law in India. The court has scheduled a hearing on the petition on June 1. Let’s see what will be the court’s final verdict.
