“Today (Yesterday) a letter from writers union has been provided to press regarding the story issue. I thought of registering my opinion on the same which is the reason for this press release. They called me for a meeting in writers union by saying that my synopsis and Bosco Prabhu’s story synopsis looks same. They asked me to pay certain money to Prabhu for the similarities in both the stories. I asked them why should I pay him just because he thought of something similar to me” said Mithran in the press meet.

Mithran further said that the members of writers union denied to read the entire screenplay of my story. “They said that the synopsis is enough for them to make a conclusion.” said Mithran who added that they are not reading the entire story till now.
