The long-drawn battle between writer Vipul Rawal and Batti Gul Meter Chalu director Shree Narayan Singh has taken a new turn. Alleging that the director refused to credit him as one of the screenplay and dialogue writers of the Shahid Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor starrer — despite the orders of the Script Writers Association (SWA) — Rawal has decided to make a film based on the episode.

"I am thankful to Shree Narayan. It is because of him that I have come up with a fantastic script. The title of my film is Shree Narayan Ki Batti Gul; I have already zeroed in on the cast. We plan to roll soon. This is the best way to expose his wrongdoings," says Rawal, irked that Singh has credited Siddharth Singh and Garima Wahal as the film's writers in the trailer as well as in his multiple interviews.
