Imagine u are a chef travelling around the globe. Obviously, every hotel u visit, u will try to find out the dishes they serve, their speciality and their tastes. And if u happen to like something or think that it will be liked by ppl around u too. What u are going to do? You will try to get the recipe and contents of the same, prepare it as per ur or according to the taste of ppl around u !! Correcto????? Though the original creation is by someone else, you and ppl around u will enjoy it, no matter where from u learnt to prepare the dish !!
Its not just with the chef, even women when go to some relatives places and find something tasty/interesting, they will surely enquire about its recipe and will try to make it at home so that all family members can N'joy it.
The same happens with movies too!! Recently I watched Zinda!!
I liked the movie very much may be coz of its treatment, performances and sticking-to-the-plot screenplay. Later came to know about that its a copy of some old English or chinese movie. For me, I never heard about that movie and even never planned to see it. So, for me Zinda rocked !! And offcourse, the original everywhere/everytime rocks !! Most of the bollywood movies are said to be copied from either hollywood/chinese or south movies. I am happy to see the remakes as long as the movie comes out to be good. When the contets are too much manipulated and originality of the idea gone, the movie is anyway not interested and nobody want to see the movie. But, the recipe u wrote, when trying for urself, sometime it clicks and sometime doesn't!! So, insted of blaming the copy-cat industry, lets welcome and thnx them for making a good work for reaching out to large audinece !!
I heard ( not seen unfortunately) that BLACK is the best movie last year and all blamed it to be a remake of some english movie. Gimme a break. though the theme is copied, it was completely agreeable to remade it as the original movie, how many seen it before. He made the world of blind been seen by all indians. The movie is been refused an oscar entry. but sweeped away witth all teh appreciation it can get for the wonderful performaces and a beautiful direction !!
Anyways, some are best copy cats like Sanjay Gupta (Kaante/plan/Zinda/Musafir). some are ok types like Vikram Bhatt. and some just fail to create any fire at the BoxOffice !!
But, there are some original scripts too, but not necessarily everybody likes it and can ralate with. So, its not a prob to have copy cats in the industry.
The unavoidable comparison between a copy and original is always been there, but it doesn't lessen an inch of work they put in to make it, agree?

!! ZINDA !!
Movie : Zinda.
Director : Sanjay Gupta.
Genre: Thriller/Action.
Welcome to the no non-sense erra of films. The film stick to its plot, no faltoo deviations, no unnecessary songs, no extra comic characters.
Serious from the very first frame, the movie keeps u hooked for its entire length. Every frame is watchable. One of the finest performaces by SanjuBaba and John.
Plot : One Bala(Sanju) was put in a cage for 14 years without any reasons, without knowing the intentions. He spent 14 years preparing for himself to meet his unknown enemy. One day he released suddnely and what follows is his chase to meet his enemy.
Performances:
Sanjubaba : He lives the role. With growing age, his intensity of acting also increasing. Right from his getup for the movie to his raw looks, he seems to be really the man jailed for 14 years in prison. He rocks !!
John : Though a late entry in the film, a millinory businessman. He plays his roll whatever came his way in the movie. His cool attitude and tht half-dimple-smile make u go like him !!
Lara : Not much to her credit, but one thing u can notice is tht she is here to stay. She is hot !!
Plus :
1.Sanju feels guilty when he realises his one of the worst played pranks with one of his classmate turn into disaster. He apologises and begs for the pardon.
My Say : Very Good.

Family...Usual Revenge Drama !!
Director : RajKumar Santoshi
Cast: AB, Akki, Bhumika, Aryamaan, Sushant.
Genre : Action - Usual Revenge drama.
Plot :
The film is about two ppl who are over-protecting their families. Akki and AB. AB is a most feared DON whom no one can even dare to touch.Akshay gets killed by AB in a blind shootout and his brother)Aryamaan swore to take the revenge. He kidnaps the whole family of Don and puts him on his toes. Thats the one-line story of the movie.
Performances:
AB plays the Big Don who is handling his underworld busineess from outside the country. Nothings interesting, no shades to his role, usual ruthless DON and a protecting father and AB plays it beautifully with style.
Akshay Kumar is a shef having his own business who is protective of his brother (Aryaman) and always takes him out of all shits. A Short lived role but he keeps u engaged with his gr8 sense of humor and timing.
Bhumika is Doc playing Akki's love interest and a widow later. Not much to her role (who want to see her act anyway), looks gorgeous as usual (thts wht I was interested in).
Sushant, Don's spoiled child. He is a class actor but alas, nothing is justified for his role too.
Aryaman, a new hero launched. Don't know I din't find him impressive at all, but girls liked it. Whatever, he is here to stay and has got a lotsa things to improve on except being stylish !!
Songs in the films are good and no songs once the revenge drama starts.
Top Scenes :
1. Climax scene at the Crime Branch Office. AB just steals the show here. Marvellous.
2. When Akki request some local bhaai to save his "Bhai". and suddenly turns violent after seeing blood on his Bro's face. His sudden reaction and change in emotions are wonderfully portrayed.
Rating: Average+.

This is the word I need to look carefully and type it just to let the author know about my view his/her article.
And lemme tell u, this is damm cumbersome a task I find to do.
- I mostly keep images disabled for the webpage to let it load faster. (It also keeps ur colleugues not peep onto ur screen seeing all those pics there)
- Again reload the page so as to see the image. (Before this, copy the comment u typed in hasty)
- I need to strain my eyes to see what that ****ing patteen in different shapes means.
- Enter the pattern correctly or again strain those eyes. :-(
- and if its a debate kinda happening, its useless to repeat these steps.

- U want ur frenz to know abt ur blog.
==> Send them a seperate mail abt ur blog address OR include them in mailIDs which will automatically send them a mail when u update ur blog. :-)
==> Normally, ppl forward the FWDs w/o editing, so all ur detailed signature gets transferred thru mails a lot. This is the main source of spam mails/comments.
- U delete spam and u hate tht empty space
==> See, u just hate tht empty space, what abt us who need to go thru the procedure above to post there.
Anyways, marzee hai aapki.. aakhir blog hai aapka !!
Note : I find deleting spam is easier option than not letting ur frenz/non-frenz to post a comment.
