The director was served with a legal notice in 2009 by 20th Century Fox, which charged that the movie blatantly plagiarized the 1992 comedy My Cousin Vinny.[3] Chopra and the production company, Mumbai-based BR Films, denied the charges in court in May of 2009; the movie's release was to be delayed until June of 2009[4] by order of the Bombay High Court.[2] Fox sought damages of $1.4 million; this was the first time a Bollywood filmmaker was taken to court by a Hollywood company over the remaking of a film. Fox had given Chopra permission "to make a film loosely based on the Oscar winning movie" but concluded the final product was a "substantial reproduction" of the original.[2] The Kolkata Telegraph, listing a number of other Bollywood movies "inspired" by Hollywood blockbusters, noted that the case would "decide whether Indian filmmakers can continue to get their 'inspiration' with impunity, or buy rights the legal way."[5]
Currently, the film is slated for a 2 April 2010 release.[6]
its been blockbuster of the year.
