plagirised duck (of destiny?)
To samit basu (duck of destiny)
dude ur "end of story" is so ripped off rushdie's 'haroun and the sea of stories'...i mean yeah there r animals and panchatantra stuff in it but who r we kidding?
the basic premise of 'killing stories' is so lifted off rushdie!
and here i was thinking indian comics had come of age! leaves me bitter...

and i thought i was the only one who noticed :-)
well my friend, seems he's writing a bollywood script too...the world of plagiarized hindi films fits him perfectly don't u think hee hee :-)
fucking troll. the book isnt even out yet! you have magical powers? there are many books out there about stories dying, both in comics and books. its a school of telling stories, and he might just have added to it. dont know what personal beef you have against him, but this just shows your ignorance
man i dont need to read the comic('end of story'), or hav magical powers, they r shouting abt it here...http://www.virgincomics.com/endofstory.html
"someone is killing old mostly forgotten stories" it says...
and read this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haroun_and_the_Sea_of_Stories(and read the book 'haroun and sea of stories' too ...its wonderful)
"However, the evil Khattam-Shud (whose name means "The End", "completely finished") is attempting to poison the sea of stories"
Man how blatant can it be!!
In fact in the Rushdie book it mentions the villain's name as 'Khattam-Shud' because When ending a story, rather than using the traditional, "The End," Rashid simply says, "Khattam-Shud." whts tht?? END OF STORY!!!
DUDE u gotta be blind to get this!
and i hav no grudges against this guy...I actually hav his simoqin prophecies and i quite liked it...which is why it pains me more...
man, u say "there are many books out there about stories dying"...c'mon gimme one damn example !
btw i aint a 'blogger' in the strict sense of the term. I had to say sthg when i say this plagiarism, so I left a comment on Samit Basu's blog (and it wont appear obviously coz its all moderated)...so I put up a post here...
Thnx anon for reading...dunno if u will be back to see my answer...or care to...i dont care either...
You know what !! I know that guy.. pretty well.. ( throo his blog..) and I think he's a bit hyped.. nd i didnt like simoqiun .. despite being called a loser by all my peers..
and yeah.. i read it on virgin too and was kinda suspicious I've heard it somewhere..
what happened to your Karna ?? I put a lot of hope in you ... :)
