"Yes! 3 Idiots," pat came the reply from Madhavan replied, who referred to the 2009 blockbuster he starred in, based on Bhagat's maiden best-seller titled 'Five Point Someone'.

"Well I prefer to be known as Chetan Bhagat over being known as Farhan from that one movie," Bhagat said.

"I'm not known just as Farhan. I'm also known as Manu from 'Tanu Weds Manu', Kartikh from 'Alaipayuthey', and my favourite, Maddy kyunki mein rehta hoon sab ke dil mein," Madhavan said.
