		<description>I have seen the movie Vinodayatra. But I cant remember most of the story. I wonder how it got the best screenplay award. Without scripts from people like Sreeni, Sathyan movies are just below average.</description>

		<description>Award for Best Copycat Screenplay goes to Sathyan Anthikad

I was under the belief that Satyan Anthikad is a &#039;genuine&#039; scriptwriter even though his script lacks versatality untill I read the story of a korean film &#039;My Sassy Girl&#039;. Satyan lifted a scene where Hero and Heroine meets from this film and added that to his Award winning Vindoayathra.
This doesnt mean that he copied the complete film but there are striking smilarities between two heros. My Sally Girl, released in 2001, was super hit film in asian countries and been remade to English last year.

The next scene shows Gyeon-woo at a restaurant with some of his friends. He is interrupted by a call from his mother telling him to go meet the girl that his aunt wants to set him up with. He refuses and continues to eat with his friends. At the train station on his way home, he observes a girl, stone drunk, standing precariously close to the edge of the train platform as the train approaches; he pulls her to safety just in time. Inside the train, Gyeon-woo cannot help but stare at the girl wavering back and forth. He is slightly attracted to her but also repulsed by her drunkenness. Finally, she throws up on a passenger and faintsâ€”but not before she calls Gyeon-woo &quot;honey&quot;. The passenger aggressively chides Gyeon-woo and tells him to take care of his girlfriend. Gyeon-woo, completely flustered, carries her all the way to the nearest motel. While he is showering, her cell phone rings. Stark naked he runs out to answer it and informs the caller of their location. Very soon, just as Gyeon-woo realises there are no towels in the shower, a pair of women police officers burst into the room and he is taken to jail.
