[edit] Monotonous Hindi Plots

Alas, Bollywood cannot be original, ripping off all good Hollywod films' plots. Koi Mil Gaya, being an adaptation of E.T., has not even copied the film properly, instead making a badly animated, lame-song-sequence saturated, semi-plotless excuse for a film. (Feel free to correct me if I am wrong). -Vader1941

Don't those same differences make it a distinct film? The quality can be discuseed if there's a source for the discussion (professional critics, box office receipts); as for the film in relation to E.T., I think it needs to be proven that it was an intentional "adaptation". As it stands, none of the links seem to support this... the India Times Page includes a mention from the director that he wanted the alien to be unlike E.T., which to me suggests he wanted to avoid making a film that was at least supeficially similar (not what an adaptation would strive for, I think). Perhaps a section comparing the two films side by side might be relevant? Lucky number 49 21:20, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
