Bollywood = Plagiarism knows no Bounds
Plagiarism is defined as the "wrongful appropriation," "close imitation," or "purloining and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions". Read more about it on Wikipedia.
For those of you unfamiliar with 'Bollywood', it is the Indian Film Industry. So basically, it serves to entertain the 2nd largest population in the world. Now that's a big responsibility and you'd think that they'd try to be original. But you'd be wrong. There's a fine line between getting inspired by the work of another person and plagiarizing it, sadly Bollywood seems unashamed in crossing that line repetitively.
Overtime I'll try to compile a complete list of all the plagiarized Bollywood movies in a hope to create awareness among people regarding this sad practice. Bollywood film makers seem to exploit the fact that many Indian viewers do not grasp the foreign accent properly and hence are not regular viewers of Hollywood. This creates an opportunity for dishonest Indian movie makers to imitate Hollywood movies without being criticized for doing so (instead they are appreciated for their efforts and these imitated films make good money at the box office)

Bollywood filmakers has been continuosly copying hollywood since ages,they takes inspiration,steals plots or sometimes take away the whole movie concept,even they dnt leave posters(how shameful?) They dnt even try to think their own movie name sometimes & just uses the same name or a hindi translation, Even they copies the songs(For songs,I'll create another topic)
The list is of plagiarism is long, I'll keep updating as I have no doubt Bollywood would keep copying from Hollywood (If you know any copied Bollywood movie that I have missed, mention in a comment and I'll add it after verifying) but the fact remains that they won't stop unless the people demand originality in the media and boycott plagiarized stuff. Imitation causes nothing but disgrace to the country.
A ray of hope remains in the form of a few original Bollywood people who actually sit down to make something novel and fresh.
A Request: Send this around to as many as you can so that Indian viewers realize what's happening and maybe, just maybe, demand originality.

Foreign versions of popular films are nothing new, I actually enjoy seeing remakes from other countries. For example the Hollywood versions of horror films like The Grudge and Ring are foreign remakes.

Remakes? These are no remakes. Remakes are when you go through the proper procedure, like If they are going to make "remakes", they should pay for the right to do so. Remakes are not new, they're not illegal but they should go through all the steps just like anybody else. This would include, the permits, a percentage of the proceeds and of course the CREDITS!!!. This is plain stealing. And why would they bother 'paying a percentage' or giving 'credits' when they know they can get away with it without doing either

not impossible,Two or more filmmakers can copy the same concept of the movie as many times as they want...
Watch both movies

Anyone will take movies gettin inspired, and if you write a normal story in that somethin will be same from many stories you cant say all movies are copied, is that only holly wood gets those same ideas and no Indian gets same ideas or thinkin, if you think like that even bible is copy from bhagavathgitha ,they will search for Jesus to kill when born, same Krishna they will search to kill him, movies are taken after inspiration not copied..
Aparichit 2012/12/20 10:54
