Chetan Bhagat shot to fame with his coming-of-age tale &quot;Five Point Someone&quot; in 2004 -- written at night while he kept up his financial day job -- which became a huge commercial hit and spawned a raft of Indian campus novels. Four of Bhagat's books have already been adapted into movies, but &quot;Kick&quot;, an action-thriller released on Friday and starring Bollywood headliner Salman Khan, is the first screenplay he has written that is not based on his previous work.</p><br clear="all"/>
