Bollywood has become like a blood-sucking leech. It feeds on the creativity of others. Earns on their blood. There are far less original works that what it used to be.  At times we are creative in making the worst movies ever. We steal plots, dialogues, music and everything possible and shamelessly portray it as one’s own without even crediting the original maker.

Rakesh Roshan‘s Krazzy 4 punished under the law for plagiarizing, was beyond any doubt a happy moment for me. It was brave enough for Mr. Sampath to fight for the cause. Partner lifted off Hitch’s plot and Sony came on heavy on the producers. But what happened after that is still a mystery. People among us came outright and told that they don’t care even if the Partner plot was lifted because it was entertaining.

Last day i was mentioning to my friend that the trailers looks like its a remake of an old the Malayalam movie. And guess what i was right. Wikipedia states that it is a remake of the late 1980′s malayalam movie “Mukkilla Rajyathu“. Embarrasingly enough malayalis had got into the business of plagiarism long before bollywood. The movie was lifted off the 1989 English movie The Dream Team.

All we can debate when a movie comes out is that which actor is better than the other? The gossips surrounding the heroines. But do we really care if the movie or the song is lifted off from some unsuspecting individual. Apparently the music director Anu Malik, the self proclaimed Mozart of the East, would go bankrupt if people start approaching the law for the tunes that he has lifted.

I don’t understand, what do they lose if they credit someone of the original plot? Least said 90% of the indian movie goers dont care where the plot came from originally.
