Plagiarism?

Regulars to my blog would’ve read my short story Dei Kandha written in August 2006. But I got the shock of my life when I was reading Subramanya Raju vin Kadhaigal published by Kizhakku padhipaggam. The reason? His story Innoru Kanavu and mine was remarkably similar in content. His story had used dreams while I had used  voice hallucination. And I swear, I’ve never read Subramanya Raju before.

From here on, I guess I will think twice before blaming someone of lifting someone else’s works :)

I pray no one tells me there will be seven stories with the same content in the world :)

Those who have read that short story of SR’s, please let me know your views on this. I guess this is not plagiarism as my narration was quite different from his. But your 2 cents are more than welcome.
