Anjaana Anjaani first look copied!

So just when we thought this year we would be spared of watching Bollywood remakes that are said to be 'inspired' by its western counterpart, we come to know that the much awaited Ranbir-Priyanka starrer Anjaana Anjaani 's first look is a copy of the 2009 British release An Education. How do we know that? Take a look at the 'first theatrical poster' of the soon to be released Bollywood film. The Priyanka Chopra and Ranbir Kapoor starrer has the duo striking a similar pose to Carey Mulligan and Peter Sarsgaard in An Education's theatrical release poster.

Even if the posters do look similar, we are however, made aware of the fact that the stories differ in totality, with An Education, directed by Lone Scherfig, being the story of an intelligent high school girl, Jenny Millar (Carey Mulligan), who is about to start university for higher studies when she meets a charming, older man David Goldman (Peter Sarsgaard), who romantically sweeps her off her feet. Smitten with love, Jenny leaves her ambitions behind, just to be with him, only to realize later that the man of her dreams has conned her and left her for good.

Anjaana Anjaani weaves a different tale of two youths who have faced severe disappointments in the face of love and their unsuccessful careers. Fed up with the way things have turned out, they both individually decide to put their miseries to an end by jumping off a bridge. However, destiny has other plans for them, and thus, when they both co-incidentally end up on the same bridge at the same time, yet another love story is born.

Other inspirations for Anjaana Anjaani, directed by Siddarth Anand, are the Hollywood box-office hits; The Girl on the Bridge (1999) and Before Sunrise (1995).

With all said and done, we just hope the movie 'inspires' our junta to make it a box-office hit!

To be quite honest, I'm left wondering if this article, which ironically talks of plagiarism, isn't itself heavily "inspired" by a topic entitled Anjaana Anjaani poster copied? in the Bollywood forum.

FFS, Give the damn credit where it is due.
