Anurag did no mixing — he just copied them as it is. The Notebook defense is ridiculous. The mother driving her to a place pointing to a man and saying she comes down to see him everyday and all that is common. If that is so common tell me how many other movies have that same scene apart from The Notebook and Barfi? The point is he copied the scene as it is expecting that no one will find out. And Anurag even denied that he copied the scene when it is very obvious for anyone to see.
If the movie would have continued fine without those sequences according to you then why were they copied in the first place? And if those scenes are not required lets ask Anurag to delete every one of those copied scenes. Lets see how much of the movie still remains and will it still be as great for the people who liked it the first time?
There lies the answer. Its ok Baba. If I go and edit someone will go and change it back. Times of India, Mumbai Mirror, Hindustan Times and many others have ironically plagiarized a post about plagiarism. The makers of the film defended the copying as a form of inspiration.
However, it was alleged that the makers of the movie made no attempts to credit the original sources for the scenes. A few days after the release, several videos were uploaded on YouTube showing side by side comparisons allegedly showing the copying of scenes.
In his defense Anurag Basu has been saying he was merely paying homage to Chaplin and Keaton. Why did then Anurag Basu never mention his name?
Or was he thinking this at least would never be caught? Oscars affect your market hugely. In spite of knowing that a few scenes from Barfi! How can that film stand a chance of making it to the nomination list? Barfi without these scenes would have still remained a beautiful film that it is.
This post though unintentionally, but has in a way killed the essence of the movie and pulled it away a little, from the success that it deserves.. Even if you have all the source in the world to copy.. It will still be good. Watching two disabled ppl in a single film gets nauseating after a while.
I felt like i walked into a sarkari dawakhana. Ileana was there but I still missed normal ppl. Kudos to Sputnik for that. This post actually made me watch this film. Let me first admit that watching movies about retarded leads is not my cup of coffee. I disliked KMG and could not like this one any better. Awareness about the plagiarism thanks to this post only made it worse. But it seems many people have liked it; as it was with the case with KMG. But after talking to quite a few people in my circle, came to know that I am not the only one who disliked it.
The only Ranbir movie I had liked remains Rajneeti. Seriously think this boy needs to grow up into a man soon. But this time he did do a fantastic job and such a performance and since the movie is about his character primarily and the movie deserves whats due.
Most of them were much more appreciative of OMG. The female counterparts, I found gushing about Ranbir and Barfi. In that way Barfi is the antithesis to Agneepath — the guyz enjoyed but the females loathed it. Inspite of these many scenes copied I think Barfi! Babaji Ka. I started with only 7 scenes but people kept adding scenes that were inspired from even as late as last week.
In light of all the new information I have serious doubt whether even a single scene in the movie is original. If the movie had concentrated just on the love story and the relationship between the three main characters the movie would have been shorter and I may have liked it too.
If Chaplin and Keaton were given an homage, I was pretty sure a tip of the hat was also given to Harold Lloyd. See the scene from to Another one:. Thanks for the original of Priyanka yelling after laughed at scene. It is a straight case of plagiarism from multiple sources. Sure without proper citation.
And then there are bunch of idiots who are forcing us to look at the bigger picture as overall work — a complete movie. American definition of plagiarism true one — if there is single page copied in a book of pages, the publisher will pull off the book from all bookstores and take returns from all the buyers, giving them complete refund. They will also publicly apologies for representing and being victim of plagiarism. Also, the producers or publishers can sue the authors for breach of contracts.
Indian music directors, movie makers are notorious of copying. In this age of internet, youtube, they dare to copy and then dare to defend it. Thats a shame. Its amazing how people simply choose to be ignorant. Its nothing but shame.
Even the Actors to be blamed as am sure the main actor must been seeing charlie chaplin and others to copy the scene. Now everyone will be dissapointed when its not selected. You can see why? It touches the depth of our heart, even if it is a copy or inspired one; far better than the so called original or self made bollywood films. And as cited here, it has a mixture of several all time great and legendary films, give the director and others involved, a credit!!
It is an all in one single film…….. Guys I have a favor. Please create a movie based on copied scenes. You are the first person to predict , views. So congrats. Iam not taking any credit away frm u or TQ. Infact I congratulated u first. All i am talking here abt is quantity coz in Quality TQ has emerged winner in all its department.
I did not think you were taking any credit and I did not take any offense. Thanks for calling TQ the quality winner.
You are also a contributor to the quality of TQ with your posts and your comments. Great post. Keep up the good work in exposing these dumb filmmakers. The only scene from Barfi, for which the original source was not found then at least not mentioned on any listicles was the friendship test using lamppost tree. Finally came across it while watching some random trailers. Its awesome that you came back to post the video 2 years after you asked FS who posted that comment 6 years back which movie that scene is from.

S: I am replying from dashboard. Bollywood often takes inspiration from Hollywood films. But do you know that Bollywood films have taken inspiration from South Korean films as well? There are several filmmakers in our industry who remade some of the critically acclaimed Korean films. There have been various films in the past when Bollywood was inspired to pick up plots from Korean films. This occurred even before the Korean wave hit the International cinemas or on Netflix.
And we have compiled some of the Bollywood films that are adapted from several Korean hit films. But the actor believes in taking it a notch higher, and has lent his voice for a new Barfi song, Fatafati. Priyanka, 30, said Shah Rukh lent his research of autism from My Name is Khan, where his character showed mild form of the disorder.
Stampede in Bangalore during Barfi promotions On Monday at the Phoenix Mall in Bangalore, excited crowds broke free of the barricades separating them from the three stars of the evening, Priyanka Chopra, Ileana D'Cruz and Ranbir Kapoor, and nearly swooped down on them before Ranbir formed a protective cordon around the two ladies and fled-literally fled-with them through the back entrance of the mall.
Murphy Radio shown in positive light: Barfi! But the crowd that had gathered to chat with them at 4. They were keen enough to meet the Barfi! Read on and tell us if you think it's the right choice. Share Via. And each and every scene seems to be a copy,the whole film is literally copied from other famous pictures. It must have been easy for the director, and te actors to keep watching such scenes and practice them for this movie.
With so much visible coping, they are really stupid to think they can try their luck for the Oscars. Great, hope indeed! Now a days it is all the more visible if you have copied because everything is out in the Internet, not like the olden days when though itmight have been copied, not many people would know about it.
It is all the more important, that original story only comes up. Well, if some of the copied scenes of a movie are criticized in such a manner, i would say we should criticize each and every movie of bollywood. Barfi has copied scenes from Mr. Yes, from Chaplin And if u want everything to be original then start criticizing from Rabindranath Tagore.. Thums Up for Barfi!! Reality Views.
