On a suggestion given by Bombay High Court, Excel Entertainment, the company promoted by Farhan Akhtar, on Saturday consented to give credit to Abhishek Kapoor as a joint writer of the coming film 'Rock On 2', sequel of the 2008 film.

Kapoor had filed a suit in the HC seeking credit as a joint writer along with Pubali Chaudhary. His lawyers Birendra Saraf and Hitesh argued that the sequel had been written in a collaborative effort by Kapoor and Chaudhary. To back the claim, they submitted multiple e-mails exchanged between the two.
