Irrfan Khan-starrer Hindi Medium is a copy of this Bengali film; makers accused of plagiarism
Producer of the Bengali film is reportedly planning to move to court accusing Hindi Medium of copyright infringement...

Trailer of Irrfan Khan-starrer Hindi Medium, which won everyone's heart by its quirky take on India's fixation with English, has come under the scanner. Soon after the trailer was released, there were accusations that this Saket Chaudhary directorial was a copy of 2014 Bengali film, Ramdhanu: The Rainbow.

As per reports, On October 4 last year, Shiboprosad Mukherjee had informed Mukesh Bhatt, the president of Film & Television Producers Guild of India, to take action against the Saket Chaudhary directorial, Hindi Medium. Claiming that the film is a copy of Ramdhanu, he had written: "Recently, we have been informed by a close friend and business associate that they were approached by director Saket Chaudhary and producer Dinesh Vijan to invest in a film which has a storyline similar to Ramdhanu' with Mr Irrfan Khan in the lead. On being denied, they then approached T-Series for the same. Also, we had contacted Mr Irrfan Khan for the lead role in the Hindi remake of the original Bengali film. He also confirmed that he had been offered a similar role in a similar story. Kindly note we have not given anybody any language-remake right other than Malayalam and would request you to kindly look into the matter as we consider this to be an infringement of copyright."
