3-Idiots" will be the first Indian film to legally release on the popular videosharing website Youtube.com, reports a leading Indian business daily. Producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra has been quoted in the report saying that the film will be available for download and viewing in three months after its theatrical release due this Friday.The reports quotes chopra saying, "I'm providing this facility for those who can't see it on big screen and watch pirated movies. I just want them to discourage pirated prints. They just need to wait for 12 weeks and after that they can legally download the movie and watch it. Tomorrow if there is a facility to watch movies on mobile phones, the film will be available there but in appropriate time. We can't harm our theatrical business by releasing at DTH."The film, based on the popular English novel "Five Point Someone" written by Chetan Bhagat, is directed by Rajkumar Hirani of Munnabhai series fame. Film stars Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Sharman Joshi and Madhavan and is being distributed by Reliance Big Pictures
