In an interesting turn of events, an aspiring writer named Kanneganti Anil Krishna alleged that the motion poster of Chiranjeevi’s ‘Acharya’ is heavily inspired by his story, ‘Punyabhoomi’. He says that the makers of Acharya have plagiarized his work.
Anil claims that Dharmasthali is a key point of ‘Punyabhoomi’ which was written by him and has already been registered under writer’s association.
The young writer further says that the visuals shown in the motion poster of Acharya are close to that of his writings.
Well, Acharya is still far away from completion and it will be around a year before it hits the silver screens.
It seems a bit farcical to make plagiarism allegations on a film which is still in production stage.
Acharya unit will be resuming shoot in the coming months. It remains to be seen if the makers of the Chiranjeevi starrer will react to these plagiarism claims.
