The upcoming film Raabta has been accused of plagiarism by the makers of another film.
The Bollywood director, Dinesh Vijan’s Raabta has created a buzz in the audience with the sizzling chemistry between Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon. The film’s songs like Ik Vaari Aa, the title track and the recently released Main Tera Boyfriend are also being very much liked by their fans.
But now the film seems to have fallen into a legal trouble. It was yesterday only when we told you all that the makers of the Telugu film, Magadheera have accused Raabta makers of plagiarism. Also, they have decided to drag the makers of Raabta into the court!
Magadheera was a love story which featured the stars Ram Charan and Kajal Aggarwal. The film had a storyline based on incarnation and also had two different time zones. Raabta’s trailer show that it has a similar storyline of incarnation. Hence, the makers of Magadheera have accused the other film’s makers of stealing their copyrighted storyline.

At the star-studded premiere of Sachin: A Billion Dreams, the lead couple of Raabta was asked as to what they feel about the accusations.
Sushant seemed very agitated at the question and replied by saying, “If you read up any book on screenplay, the most basic book, the first chapter of that book tells you that there are only eight different stories that you can tell, so every story is from those stories. It’s as simple as that.”
On the other hand, Kriti was very cool and calm and she tried to handle the situation. She said, “I want to say that I have seen the film that you are talking about (Maghadheera) and I have read the Raabta script. I know the film inside out and it is in no way similar. The characters, the narrative… everything from scratch is different.”
Before leaving Sushant again said, “And whoever you are talking about, whoever has a problem or sees a similarity can watch our film and they will get to know!”
On the legal side, the court has decided to listen to both the fronts on June 1 and then decide if the film can release on its scheduled date! Raabta is slated to release on June 9, this year.
