Biplab Goswami, the credited writer of the 2024 film "Laapataa Ladies", has responded strongly to online plagiarism allegations linking his script to Fabrice Bracq’s French short film “Burqa City” and Ananth Mahadevan’s 1999 movie "Ghoonghat Ke Pat Khol".
To make a film is to tell a story, and when it's a cumulation of collective consciousness, to find common social grounds, values, and ordinary yet telltale stories that create the base of development of human thought and psyche is a perfect example of a much needed social and cultural commentary.
