Amitabh Bachchan
wrote a funny dialogue from a south Indian film on a social-networking site. It became an instant hit among his fans, and many put it up as their status message. But none of them bothered to give credit to the person who first wrote it. And the funniest part is that, five days after AB started the joke, it came back to him. Fans started sending the joke to Bachchan Senior asking him for his take on it, without realising that he was the one who actually started it. We talk about IPR rights in a country where even AB's work is passed off by fans as their own.
