Complaint lodged against Baby makers. When it comes to movies, quality content can often lead to tremendous success, and "Baby" is a prime example of this phenomenon. Directed by Sai Rajesh, this film, released last year, emerged as a blockbuster hit. Anand Devarakonda, the younger brother of Vijay Devarakonda, takes on the role of the protagonist, with Vaishnavi Chaitanya portraying the female lead. Their portrayal of a beautiful love story resonated deeply with audiences, earning widespread acclaim.
Sai Rajesh's direction skillfully crafted a narrative that struck a chord with the youth demographic, garnering significant praise. Additionally, Vaishnavi Chaitanya's performance contributed significantly to the film's success, further bolstering her already substantial social media following. "Baby" not only triumphed in theaters but also made a splash on OTT platforms, solidifying its status as a bona fide hit.
However, recent reports suggest a brewing controversy surrounding the film's storyline. It's been alleged that Shirin Sriram, a short film director and cinematographer, has filed a complaint at the Rayadurgam Police Station in Hyderabad, claiming that the story of "Baby" belongs to her. Sriram asserts that he pitched the story to the filmmakers several years ago, and the alleged infringement of copyright laws forms the basis of her complaint.
According to Sriram's account, she first shared the story with Sai Rajesh in 2013, and the title she proposed for it was "Preminchoddu. He claims that he subsequently discussed the story with producer SKN, upon Sai Rajesh's recommendation. Sriram contends that the story he pitched was later adapted into "Baby," without his consent or acknowledgment.
The matter remains under investigation, and official details regarding the allegations and subsequent actions are pending.
