yes that is why even the producers admit to copying hollywood movies scene to scene example. the bhatt family
The only reason i watch indian movies is for their songs. And many times the songs are copied from pakistani songs.
The song "Yeh Pyar Hai Ek Nasha Zindagi Ka" with Malaika Arora from the movie Indian is a ripoff of an old Shakira song.
The song "Deewana Tera Hai" from the movie Koi Meray Dil Say Poochay with Aftab and Esha is a ripoff from an old violin tune.
Last week, i was watching an irani tv show showing old songs and there was this song and i was like. "That sounds like some indian song." I cant remember it right now but that proves that indians copy iranians too.
This other song "Meri Chamak Chalo Man Bhi Ja" with Govinda and Urmila is a ripoff of a spanish song.
There's a pakistani song Abrar Ul Haq sang called Billo Day Ghar and it was copied by bollywood in a sunny deol movie and they changed it to Kamo Day Ghar.
Bohay Barian sung by Hadiqa Kiani was copied in two songs i cant remember right now.
These are the ones i can remember right now. SO much for originality.
Right now Adnan Sami is the toast of bollywood and he is a Pakistani.
A good indian music director is A.R.Rehman. All his songs are great. THe songs in Devdas were good too.
