Ajay Devgn's All The Best finds itself in a copyright controversy

Next week's big Diwali release, All The Best, finds itself in the middle of an uncalled for controversy. Apparently, producer Karan Ramsay (of Om Films Company) has filed a copyright infringement suit against actor and producer Ajay Devgn over the script of the film.-

Ramsay claims that the script of All The Best is almost the same as his under-production film called Uncle Samjha Karo. He has even gone on to mention that he had purchased the copyright of his film's script from writer Paritosh Painter in November 2006. Ramsay further adds that in 2007, Paritosh Painter had tried to get back the copyright of the script from him but in the arbitration process that followed, the IMPPA ruled the case in his favour thereby declaring Ramsay as the owner of the copyright.

Devgn films meanwhile claim that their film is based on the American play 'Right Bed Wrong Husband' and that they had in fact acquired the script from an American firm for $40000. Devgn is even livid at the fact that despite knowing all this long before, Ramsay files a petition only at the last minute close to his film's release.

When we tried to contact Devgn Films, their spokesperson said, "Right now we are in Delhi for the promotions of our film. The matter is currently in court and we would not like to comment on anything at this point of time. We should get a clearer picture by Monday."

One will have to wait and watch if the makers of All The Best are able to come out of this soup in a clean way.

I would love to do more Bengali films: Bipasha Basu

New Delhi, Aug 29 (IANS) She is known for her bold image in Bollywood, but dusky beauty Bipasha Basu will now be seen in a slew of non-commercial films like the Bengali 'Shob Charitro Kalponik', 'Pankh' and 'Lamhaa'. She insists she is not making any special attempts to change her image and would love to do more Bengali films if they are interesting.

'I like to do films that are entertainers, glamorous, fun, action and definitely realistic. There is no effort that I am putting towards an image change with non-commercial films. I just feel that in the Hindi film industry, where you look in a particular manner, people consider your USP as something and you get a little typecast,' Bipasha told IANS in a telephone interview from Mumbai.

'But I'm not trying to break any typecast. It's just that within the given limitations, I'm trying to push and taste everything a little bit,' she added.

Bipasha plays a Kashmiri girl in director Rahul Dholakia's 'Lamhaa', has a supporting role in arthouse film 'Pankh'' and in her just released Bengali film debut she plays a typical sari-wearing Bengali woman.

Asked if 'Shob Charitro...' marks her entry into regional cinema, she said: 'I don't like to do films where I don't understand the language; so I don't know about other regional films. I tried doing a Telugu film (2002) and a guest appearance in a Tamil movie (2005), but it was the toughest thing I've ever done.

'But Bengali films...for sure because I know the language... I'd love it if there are some interesting films or a filmmaker who would love to make one...they are more than welcome to approach me and I'd love to do it,' she added.

Produced by Big Pictures, 'Shob Charitro...' has been written and directed by Rituparno Ghosh and also stars Prasenjit, Jisshu Sengupta, Pauli Dam and Sohag Sen.
