Raju Hirani's 3 Idiots, which is 'loosely adapted' from Chetan Bhagat's Five Point Someone is the highest-grossing Bollywood film of all time.
Now, B-Town has woken up to another of this author's works. In a time when films based on best-selling novels are fast becoming a trend, market-savvy producer Sajid Nadiadwala who has in his long career, been responsible for many blockbusters including the recent Housefull-2; purchased the rights of Bhagat's 2 States at an exorbitant sum. From that point onwards, 2 States has been making headlines continuously. Every top actor's publicity machinery has leaked out fake stories on how it was their client who was being considered for the role of the Punjabi college lad. Now the speculation has come to an end.
