Madhur is such a copycat!


Madhur Bhandarkar says he's a realistic filmmaker but does he keep copying Hollywood flicks. I have recently seen the Hollywood musical movie Chicago and I was surprised to learn that Priyanka's and Kangana's characters were inspired by the characters of Renee Zellweger and Catherine Zeta-Jones. The two principal characters go through the same journey of success and failure like Priyanka and Kangana in Fashion. Renee plays a naive innocent girl who becomes manipulative and arrogant like Priyanka in the second half, while Catherine plays an arrogant, bitchy diva whose spotlight has been hogged by someone else like Kangana. When will Bollywood filmmakers learn to be creative and not to steal ideas from Hollywood?
