This is my 2nd blog about remakes, out of a total of only 3 blogs, but I assure you I'm not obsessed with this one topic!

I found myself having to write something here though, after finding out that Aamir Khan is set to film the remake of the Telugu language movie 'Ghajini' this year. The movie itself is a remake of Christopher Nolan's modern film noir, 'Memento'.

Aamir Khan is one of the few actors in India who takes risks with his movies, and he usually comes out with something fresh every year; it's a shame, then, to see him star in a film that's been made twice before.

If that's not bad enough, Salman Khan's new movie 'God Tussi Great Ho' (set to release next month) is the Indian version of 'Bruce Almighty'. Khan reprises the role of Jim Carrey's "Bruce" character, while Amitabh Bachchan plays "God". Although both seem suited to these roles, the film itself seems a little cringeworthy.

With these 2 movies being amongst the most eagerly awaited of the year (and likely to be one amongst the highest grossers of the year), it seems nothing has changed since '07. Remakes still seem to be the way to go. As of now, I resign on this topic and just hope that Indian films - whether remakes or not - continue to entertain.
