» Feature Writer Harsh Nevatia - Your take on this


Myths and legends have been rewitten with storyline alterations all through history and before. Homer did it, Shakespeare dit it and Hollywood is notorious for it.

Should traditional storylines be held sacred and not altered while rewriting or should literary licence be allowed to prevail. And if literary licence is permissible, then should it be within limits.

What are the altered tales that have not gone down well and which ones have been justifiable.
