Hrithik Roshan's Kaabil Receives Legal Notice From Netflix For Plagiarism?
Sanjay Gupta rubbishes rumours that Kaabil has copied several elements from Netflix's Daredevil. He said that if Netflix really decides to sue them, he will fight back.
Buzz
around
tinsel
town
is
that
Hrithik
Roshan's
Kaabil
has
received
a
legal
notice
from
Netflix
for
plagiarism
as
they
believe
Kaabil
has
copied
several
parts
from
their
famous
TV
series
Daredevil.
Mumbai
Mirror
carried
a
report
quoting
a
source
as
saying,
"Protagonists
of
both
the
productions
are
blind
while
even
the
action
sequences
look
the
same.
The
colour
schemes
are
also
similar.
This
has
upset
Netflix
and
they
will
be
taking
legal
action
against
Rakesh
Roshan's
FilmKraft
Productions
and
Sanjay
Gupta's
White
Feature
Films."
However,
director
of
Kaabil,
Sanjay
Gupta
has
rubbished
these
reports
and
said
that
there
are
no
similarities
at
all
between
Kaabil
and
Daredevil.
"It's
a
preposterous
comparison
because
Hrithik
is
not
a
superhero
in
Kaabil.
His
character
is
that
of
a
blind
man
who
does
what
he
does
the
best.
In
daredevil,
the
protagonist
fights
30
people
at
a
time.
None
of
that
is
happening
in
Kaabil.
If
they
sue
us,
we
will
definitely
fight
back."
Kaabil
starring
Hrithik
Roshan
and
Yami
Gautam
is
all
set
to
hit
the
theatres
on
January
25,
2016.
The
film
would
clash
with
Shahrukh
Khan
and
Mahira
Khan
starrer
Raees.
Both
the
films
have
huge
expectations
from
the
audiences
and
we
hope
that
both
of
them
will
do
well.
