Kurukshetra 2010


Well “Kurukshetra 2010” is the 1st symposium I attended in my life. Here I m gonna share my 1st exciting experience about the symposium. One of my senior referred our classmates to join the “Kurukshetra 2010” website to register the entries for the symposium, when I heard this I registered immediately after reaching to home from college. As soon as registering I and my another friend azul got the invitation for the event “K! Conclave”. On the day of symposium we took the Print out (I am sorry this is not an ecofriendly act..)of invitation along with a letter to HOD, to request for half a day leave to attend the symposium. But our HOD refused to allow us and we were puzzle and don’t know what to do further, whether to go to symposium or sit in the class. Finally I decided to skip the classes and bunk the college, and we did it somehow taking risk we came out finally B-). Train was waiting at the station we ran to catch the train and we caught it somehow, after reaching Chennai central station we took a bus to Anna university and reached the campus. It was a great pleasure to get in such a great university campus, and we confirmed our registration. When we reached there we found that already two other our classmates were present there, we clubbed together to start rocking. We attend the workshop about “3D laptops” and “K! Conclave” and participated in the snap contest, which was a photography contest and the theme topic was “Kurukshetra 2010 - The Battle of Brains”. But the thing is we dint had that much HD camera to click out the HD photos. After finishing the event we roamed around the campus and clicked few pics. Finally day 1 events got over and we again took a bus to reach out our home, day was awesome and the way we spent that day was very thrilling. Day 2 we went again to symposium mechanical students of our college were presenting their bio-fuel car and the rally was going on we started cheering our college guys and our college got 2 prize (5000) cash prize and mementos we enjoyed that day very well and reached out homes evening. Next day that car was demonstrated at the college to the press and media.

3i vs 5p someone


Well guys u need to know one thing 1st of all, if u buy a painting and frame it with another attractive colors frame and hangs on walls of your bedroom means, it doesn’t change the artist name by your name and the credit of real artist cannot be transferred to you. But in this movie, they have shown like the people who changed the frame are the artists and they moved the real artist name onto a corner, 1st credit was given to the modifiers, which actually was not fair. They displayed the name of real author just because for name sake to follow the contract. Because it was mention in the contract that credit will be given to the author. But contract it self was made intelligently to crop the chettan's name out of the main stream, and drop out him from movie, because the place of credit was not mentioned in the contract.

Before getting into this I want to make some comparisons of movies which were made based on the novels

The story of Hindi movie omkara was adopted from the William Shakespeare's play "Othello" in that movie 1st credit was given to the real author of the novel “Shakespeare”.

But the same case with the Slumdog Millionaire as happened with 3idiots  

The story of the movie Slumdog Millionaire was adopted from the novel of Vikas Swarup and finally Vikas’s name were missing from the credits and later Danny Boyle apologized to Vikas Swarup on the stage of Oscar while receiving the awards and said there is no Oscar for us and Slumdog Millionaire if there is no Vikas Swarup’s novel.

Chetten Bhagat claimed:
  •             3idiots were stolen from him!!!
  •             The proper credit was not given to him!!!
Rajkumar Hirani replied:
  •  3idiot was not stolen but it was bought from the owner “chetten” for 10lacks INR says raju. And show the contract singed by chetten.
  •  The credit was given according to the contract as mentions there. But there was no point in the contract for the place of the credits and he disproved the chetten’s statements.

Now controversy is over!!!

Even though I don't understand what is wrong with chettan. I m sure he is not a psycho, so that he will sell his rights just for 10lacks, where the movie was the budget of $ 7.5 Million.

What ever happened is just firing both the sides and both the sides are getting hot. More collection is running one side for movie on other side more books are getting sold!!!

Every thing got over and solved, but one thing remains unsolved what’s that???

When media asked the Abhijat Joshi about this controversy he replied “I am paid for writing not for talking” but what, I ask is why Aamir did replied to chetten???
Was he paid for talking or commenting instead of raju or vinod???

These things remain unsolved yet. What ever it was happened dint affect any one except Aamir, because the way he replied to Chetten with out reading book five point some one was a great mistake of Aamir, and he lost his fans too this time.
