Original movies ?? huh...

Bollywood movies are often targeted for copying from Hollywood movies. Forget the music, even the scripts and screenplay of most Bollywood movies are copied from Hollywood movies. Directors like Sanjay Gupta and Vikram Bhatt are called DVD directors. Though there have been smart Bollywood lifts like Aradhna(1969), Sholay(1975) Raaz(2000), Baazigar(1993), Munnabhai MBBS(2003)Rang De Basanti(2006) and Race(2008), some Bollywood movies copy Hollywood movies scene by scene.
