Sitaare Zameen Par emerges a HIT - Page 10

Yes, of course...Aamir also never hid that he was doing a remake (he did neither with LSC)...however that is not what I meant...I don't accuse Aamir of doing a remake, I criticise those who praise Aamir for the content of the movie.

The same went for the Hindi remake of Drishyam...I was happy for the success of the remake(s) because I immensely like the story/content and it was brought in a well-made manner to the Hindi audience.

LSC was a flop because everyone saw forrest gump in late 2010s when Netflix and prime was new

SZP is doing incredibly well. Never mind what labels the idiot BO handles give it.

Only Aamir Khan could bring these numbers for a film on children with disabilities, who look and and react differently from the majority.

LSC too was a film on people with challenges. He didn't give up and made this film.

Aamir is back and the industry has no doubt,that he will be bigger and better than ever.

More than half of SRK’s movies are blatantly plagiarized. CDI is frame to frame copy of a popular sports movie Miracle which released in 2004 starring Kurt Russel. Not only did they copy the content, the main lead copied even the mannerisms of Kurt Russel. They thought no one would notice if they just Indianized it.

Baazigar is NOT a remake. It’s a blatant robbery of someone’s intellectual property. No rights were bought. There is a difference.

Some of the movies he blatantly plagiarized from, and shamelessly stole the credit from:

Jab tak hai jaan in 2011 ‘The End of Affair.

Baazigar- kiss the girls

Mohabbatien- dead poets society

Main hoon na- never been kissed, fight back to school

Chalet chalte- fools rush in

Josh- west side story

And there are more like Badshaah, Duplicate etc which you can search for yourself. The thing is, the guy built an entire career on plagiarized content.

That should be a thread of it's own, dear...do make it if you want to make SRK responsible for all the films he starred in but didn't produce...

It's the task of the producer to give credit which would be - according to your list - reduce SRK's responsibility to MHN and CC. The task then would be analysing the content of the respective movies to see in which way your accusation of plagiarising is correct.

As for the other movies, the accusation should be researched in the same way and one could look at all the movies of t h o s e production houses to accuse them then of plagiarising.

Aamir, of course, should not be a c c u s e d of doing the 4th or 5th (?) remake of Campeones... but one could very well question why he did it

T h a t would be a debate on its own, why exactly LSC wasn't successful - neither in India nor abroad.

Deer in head lights expression the whole movie

Of course he should be given credit for the content too because of the sheer importance of mainstreaming such content and the fact that he chose this content when everyone else was choosing drivel brainrot like Pathaan, Gadar 2 etc. He is also the only superstar who mainstreamed subjects like 3 idiots, TZP etc which are the most influential movies in changing the entire education landscape in India.

Let’s be honest. All this heartburn could have been avoided if only SZP became a flop like they were hoping for. What to do. For once, the post COVID audience chose quality over drivel. So it’s really they who won.

Yes, no problem to give Aamir credit for remaking this movie for the Hindi/Indian audience, for "mainstreaming" it, but in no way he deserves credit for the content.
