Plot inspiration

Producers of 498A: The Wedding Gift maintain that the story of the film is not based on Suhaib Ilyasi's story, but maintain that it was inspired by the death of Syed Makhdoom, a Canadian national and a computer engineer by profession,[2] who ended his life on 5 April 2009 in Bangalore, leaving four suicide notes and a dying video message on his mobile phone.
