Re: Bollywood : The Great Copycat
Well.... Everybody knows that bollywood take Inspirations form west. Nothing new about that. I can give you a example of latest movie that took 90% Inspiration from Hollywood and wonder how many people actually know about this?? the movie is:
" I See you", copied from " Just like Heaven"
I've read in some review.. I quote "‘I See You’ at least tells a romantic story from a very fresh perspective".. "Fresh Perspective".. 
the funny fact is that original one is 1000 times better than copycat one.

Ya I have heard that song. It was a nice song. Thanks for pointing that out. All this while I always felt uneasy after hearing "Pal pal...". Now I understand.
Anyway, not only songs, Bollywood also copies from movies. I request people to post references to that as well. Right now I am remembering:
"Raaz" - copied from "What lies beneath"
"Hum Tum" - copied from "When Harry met Sally"...
Will post as soon as I remember more.

Re: Bollywood : The Great Copycat
That's just a little part... See to what I have observed... Many of our movies and songs have indeed been ripped off from bollywood flicks... Let me list up some
- Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda starrer Bade Miyan Chhote Miyan is copied from Bad Boys...
- Bobby Deol starrer Chor machaye shor is copied from Blue Streak while double role thing is lifted off old Golmaal.
- Partner is scene-to-scene copy of Hitch
- Dhamaal is scene-to-scene copy of Its a Mad Mad Mad Mad World
- Sholay the greatest bollywood film ever has a few scenes stolen from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly and For a Few Dollars More
- Dhoom Series has a few scenes like Casino one in part 1 and Diamond in Part 2 lifted off the Ocean's Series
- A song Chakle Chakle from Hindi Movie Deewane Hue Pagal is exactly stolen from Kevin Lyttle's Turn Me On...
This is indeed a long list... I think I still know a few more which I cannot remember at the moment but it really feels bad when we find out that movies and songs that we love as our own are not really our own...

Re: Bollywood : The Great Copycat
Do you know that the main inspiration behind Sholey, India's most famous movie, were Clint Eastwood's movies like The Good, The Bad and The Ugly ? Many parts from the movies look the same.
