Do you have any information on the rights for "The Devotion of Suspect X", did the producer of this film ever buy the rights? Is it an official adaptation, or an official remake of the movie Suspect X? As far as I can see on this page Jettu joseph is credited for ORIGINAL STORY in fact.
I have nothing against bollywood making remakes, but remake and a ripoff are two very different things. This whole oh its a remake of a malayalam movie. Yeah which was an unofficial ripoff of another movie. Did the same thing with memento.
If bollywood wants to buy the rights of the actual movie, and letting their audience know that this indeed is an official remake of a another film. Then I have no problem with it. But to claim that the idea and the story is original when it is not, is just plagiarism, and thats nothing to be proud of, and yes that is illegal, and just because bollywood isnt the only place where it happens doesnt make it any less "wrong".
