Indore, January 02: The credit war between latest blockbuster ‘3 Idiots’ and ‘Five Point Someone’ turned ugly today when director of the film Rajkumar Hirani outburst over the author Chetan Bhagat.
Hirani said, “The author of Five Point Some Chetan Bhagat is lying when he says he don’t know the script.”
Hirani further said he has the right to change the script after he bought the storyline from Bhagat.

He further said that the credit should not be given to anybody else and asked Hirani to behave like a man.
