‘Farah ki Daawat’ lands in a soup

Mumbai: ‘Bigg Boss 5′ contestant, Pooja Missra has sent a legal notice to Colors channel for plagiarizing ‘Pooja Misrra Productions’ cookery show. According to her, Farah Khan’s show ‘Farah Ki Daawat’ is a plagiarised version of her show.

The legal notice did not just talk about the cookery show, but also about the time when Pooja was a part of ‘Bigg Boss’.

It reads, “My client states that after such a defamatory and horrendous projection on Bigg Boss no one offered my client respectable roles in the Bollywood film fraternity and going by the bad example set by Colors to make my client a sacrificial lamb, everybody followed suit and did the same to her.That this lead to severe health, professional and financial losses for my client and scarred her career for life.”

Here is what the legal notice had written in it about Pooja’s cookery show: “All boundaries of professionalism and decency were crossed when Colors went ahead and plagiarised ‘Pooja Misrra Productions’ maiden cookery show, written, directed, produced and anchored by my client herself by putting on air, Farah Khan ki Dawat.”

Furthermore, it was written,”Even the sponsor Videocon had approached ‘Pooja Misrra Productions for sponsorship for her cookery show however was shamelessly roped in by Colors for ‘Farah Khan ki Dawat’. Now ever since the inception of Colors we have not seen a cookery show on the prime time slot, so its crystal clear that Farah Khan ki Dawat was plagiarised from ,’Pooja Misrra Productions’ cookery show which will soon be airing on a New York based food channel.”
