Dharma Productions Slams 'Baseless' Plagiarism Claims for 'Homebound' Film

  • Dharma Productions denies author Puja Changoiwala's plagiarism allegations for their film "Homebound."
  • Changoiwala claims the film copied her 2021 novel "Homebound," including title, scenes, and narrative.
  • Dharma states their film is an officially licensed adaptation of a New York Times article by Basharat Peer.
  • The production house confirmed responding to a legal notice but denies formal communication about a Bombay High Court suit.
  • Dharma is exploring legal action to protect the film's integrity as the dispute escalates.

Why It Matters: Dharma Productions refutes plagiarism claims, asserting "Homebound" is licensed, while author seeks legal action.
