well david dhawan atleast acknowledges the fact that 99% of his movies are remakes of south indian movies unlike people like sajid khan who copy a south indian movie and then pass it off as a original. Housefull and his earlier movie with akshay kumar and the baby was a frame by frame copy of a tamil movie. Same way, most of salman khans movies including wanted,ready and partner were copies of tamil movies. oh and in the list is SINGHAM too, rohit shetty shouts from the rooftops that its a classy movie but never does he acknowledge the fact that its someone elses story and idea. I really wonder why should people remake or re do movies.....?just release them with subtitles!!!!!! why make people spend on a recycled product??????

salaman's judwa by david dhawan, many scenes were frame to frame copy of jacki chen movie
I agree that some 100 crore films like RaOne are super flops because their budget itself is 150 crore plus. But calling Sholay a remake of a Hollywood film shows his ignorance. I know he is referring to 'Magnificent Seven' which is a complete copy of the Japanese classic 'Seven Samurai'. Sholay just borrowed part of the premise from the original movie but nothing else and the rest of the movie and the characters are immortal and therefore Sholay cannot even be compared with any other movie.

Even Talaash was a venture ending in loss for the producers.It was reported that Excel Entertainment had 2 reimburse some money to Reliance who were the distributors and had bought the movie at hyped prices

Almost all Bollywood movies inflict a huge loss on Indian society by making Indian audiences dumber than they already are!
As for the movie 'Sholay', it was "inspired" by many other Hollywood Westerns besides 'Magnificent 7' (from which it borrowed the main theme of the movie - hired guns brought to fight a marauding bandit) like 'Once Upon A Time in The West', 'The Wild Bunch ', 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid' and Also other Bollywood movies like 'M e r a G a o n M e r a D e s h' and 'K h o t e S i k k a y'!
