A day after he kicked up a row by losing his cool during a press conference on his latest film 3 Idiots, filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra has apologised for lashing out at the media.

Speaking at a hotel in Noida, he said, I was provoked into adverse comments. What I did was silly; I am extremely ashamed of my outburst. I never want to meet Chetan Bhagat again. I have already given him the money.

The controversy began when Chetan Bhagat, the author of the book Five Point Someone, claimed that the film is modelled on his book he was not given credit for the film. The filmmaker and actors though brush his claims aside, saying this is nothing but cheap publicity.
