New Delhi, May 16 (PTI) From Jessica Lal murder case to Mumbai terror attacks, Bollywood seems to have taken a fancy for the breaking news with a number of filmmakers inspired by headline making stories.
With the success of Anurag Kashyap's 'Dev D', Dibakar Banerjee's 'Oye Lucky Lucky Oye' and 'Love, Sex Aur Dhokha' the industry, often accused of forgoing reality for escapism, for once has found a success formula in news stories.
Kashyap, who has already made 'Black Friday', a film on 1993 Mumabi serial blasts, incorporated stories like hit-and- run case, drug abuse and infamous DPS MMS scandal in his 'Dev D', which was a modern take on Sharatchandra's 'Devdas'.
Similarly, Banerjee was inspired by the exploits of a small time Delhi thief Bunty to make his national-award- winning film 'Oye Lucky Lucky Oye'.
