Sanjay Leela Bhansali (SLB) is in the middle of a plagiarism row.
According to veteran writer/director Dayanand Raajan, his unpublished novel Summer Snow has been ripped off, almost in totality, by the makers of Guzaarish. Raajan has dashed off a legal notice to the producers, UTV and SLB asking them for an explanation on how their film has so many similarities with his novel. A seven-days notice period has been given to the allegedly accused failing which Dayanand will move court to get a stay order on the release on the movie.
