Re: Rab Ne is a rip off from Chhoti si Baat (Amol Palekar)

I loved watching Choti Si Baat. Asrani with his gaudy yellow scooter competing with Amol Palekar for the same girl. It was really humorous. They don't make films like that anymore.
Amol Palekar was a genius in his light hearted roles and even stood out in the days of the great Amitabh Bachchan. Comparing today's frivolous movies, be it shah rukh's or otherwise to the movies of yesteryears is funny indeed. Shah Rukh will always be Shah Rukh the star and not the actor. A pity, indeed.

in the late 70s when big b was ruling commercial cinema nasiruddin,pankaj kapur,amol palekar,farooq sheik ,om puri was part of some fantastic cinema.jaane bhi do yaron was one of the most intellectual comic cinema.golmaal was a healthy middle class cinema. todays directors can never be a kundan shah or a rishikesh mukherji.
