Koratala Siva has come under legal scanner after plagiarism accusations over Srimanthudu. Supreme Court recently ordered that the director should face charges as per the lower court’s directions made earlier. The Nampally court had earlier instructed to file criminal charges against him. The director later approached the Telangana High Court due to this.
Speaking about this whole plagiarism row, writer Sarath Chandra said that he will file cases against Mahesh Babu and Mythri Naveen in the Supreme Court. The writer accused Srimanthudu is a copy of his story Chacheantha Prema which was published in Swathi Monthly Magazine back in 2012.
“Earlier when I tried to send notices to Mahesh Garu; To escape from this case, Namratha Garu changed ownership of MB creations from Mahesh Babu Garu to Gangadhar,” stated Sarath Chandra. It is to be noted that Mahesh Babu’s GMB Entertainment co-produced the film along with Mythri Movie Makers.
“I did 7 years of hard work on this story. I don’t want money, I want their acceptance of stealing my plot and due credits for my story,” revealed the writer.
