Sanjay Tiwari Presents Proof Against Raaj Shaandilyaa: “A Paradigm Shift is Needed to Save Original Writers”

For over 20 years, Sanjay Tiwari has been a steadfast figure in the media landscape. Recently, after viewing the trailer for the film Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video, he realized that the core concept bore a striking resemblance to his own idea, registered years earlier. This unsettling discovery compelled Tiwari to take a bold stand against the film’s creators.

In a press conference held in Mumbai, Tiwari presented compelling evidence against Raaj Shaandilyaa, asserting that Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video is a copy of his concept, which was registered in 2015. On September 21, 2024, Tiwari's advocate, Shashank, sent a legal notice to Shaandilyaa, Balaji Telefilms, and T-Series, emphasizing the urgent need to protect original concepts in an industry often plagued by idea theft.

Tiwari stated, “On September 27, we received a notice from Naik Naik & Company on behalf of T-Series, claiming they registered the concept on October 27, 2015. However, our concept was registered on August 28, 2015, which is two months prior.”

He presented documents to the media that clearly demonstrated his concept's earlier registration, reinforcing the seriousness of his claim.

“My concern goes beyond just my concept; it’s about all creators who struggle to have their voices heard in a landscape dominated by major production houses,” Tiwari asserted. “An idea is the cornerstone of any film. While stories can evolve, the essence of the concept must be respected. They took our idea and built a 'Taj Mahal' out of it, and that is simply wrong.”

Tiwari also criticized the Screen Writers Association, which has 65,000 members, for its slow processes. He remarked, “We live in a digital age, and the sluggish nature of such organizations does not help original creators. Writers are often pressured into accepting meager settlements after their ideas are appropriated, and the fear of retaliation from giants like T-Series and Balaji keeps many from speaking out.”

He urged fellow writers to take action, whether through filing complaints or supporting each other in legal battles. “Bringing these issues to the forefront through media coverage can lead to meaningful change,” Tiwari emphasized. “By making my fight public, I hope to inspire other writers to advocate for their rights, fostering a culture where originality is valued and protected.”

Tiwari’s battle is not merely for personal gain; it is a larger call for a paradigm shift in how the industry treats original ideas. “Aspiring writers must adopt a bold stance, much like iconic duos such as Salim-Javed, who fiercely defended their work,” he added.

In an industry often overshadowed by large production houses, Sanjay Tiwari's legal action against Raaj Shaandilyaa for allegedly copying his concept in Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video transcends personal interest—it is a clarion call for justice and recognition for small writers everywhere.
