I'm sick and tired of watching Bollywood movies that have been copied from Hollywood. How many Bollywood movies can you think of that have been copied from Hollywood? Name the Bollywood movie and the title of the movie which has been copied in the following format...

Salam Namaste = Nine Months
Hulchul = My Big Fat Greek Wedding

bollywood & hollywood both have their own pros & cons, i think there's no comparison b/w the two (not saying one's better than the other)....it's not jus bollywood that copies, hollywood does it too but it jus doesnt come to ppl's awareness (reflecting on how ignorant north americans could get)....bollywood makes the most movies in a year but hollywood's got better quality. there's not really any net profit for anybody in hollywood, it's like the amount of money they would make is fixed but bollywood can come up with movies that take less to make but fetch a lot more (this shahrukhan movie has been playin in bombay for 11 yrs ever since it came out in 1995, ppl still go watch it...profit???)
bollywood is developing fast but there's still a long way to go in order to catch up to hollywood standards, & if u think bwood movies r cheesy & corny, wait til u see big banner hwood productions like war of the worlds or hostel to name a few.
goin back to "copying" topic, hollywood is now makin a remake of munnabhai mbbs (hwood name - gangster md starring chris tucker)

i used to watch bollywood movies alllllll the time. but now they are all pretty much the same. they are all mello-dramati and they all have basically the same storyline.....boy and girl fall in love...but cant marry because of "something." dont get me wrong....i still watch em...but just for fun.
