Hitch vs. Chhoti Si Baat


I was watching Hitch with my parents and my dad said, "This sounds just like that Amol Palekar movie! For the first time Americans ripped off a Bollywood movie rather than vice versa!"

Will Smith (Alex Hitchens)=Ashok Kumar (Colonel JNW Singh)
Kevin James (ALbert Brennaman)= Amol Palekar (Arun Pradeep)
Amber Valetta (Allegra Cole)=Vidya Sinha (Prabha Narayan)

Aishwarya Rai was originally supposed to be in "Hitch". So, the Indian connection is quite evident....and probably intentional.

But still Chhoti Si Baat is much better than hitch..

hate to break it to you GUYS, but school for scoundrels is a 1960 movie with the same plot line

so since indian cinema wasnt suck a huge jerk off those days, they ADAPTED that film into this

Hitch is a quite different, it starts out the same, but is vry different from school for scoundrels or this film




This is YOUR LIFE and it is ending one minute at a time!
