Top 5 Bollywood Remakes Better Than The Original Film!

[@amitav9681]

Agneepath's remake mostly worked because the setting was completely changed. While AB Sr was a suavely dressed mafia, HR's version was more rustic and rugged. Plus replacing Mithun's character by a negative Rishi Kapoor's potrayal was a masterstroke

[@angryskull7271]

It only worked because of the cult status of the original . Amitabh Bachchan's character was hugely inspired from Corleone and Tony Montana as the movie is inspired from Scarface which was the reason his character had dark shades whereas Hritik character made me felt like another typical masala movie character . The BGM, Set design, costume match today's standards which couldn't matched by remake . Even today everyone remembers the original Agneepath and not that typical masala movie

[@tejeshshettty]

Hrithik's ability to reinvent characters in remakes is truly remarkable and deserving of more recognition. Whether it's in "Agneepath" or "Vikram Vedha," he doesn't merely replicate the original character; instead, he brings a fresh perspective and interpretation, crafting a new version that stands on its own merits.

Not only coz we love to see srk… but it is on an other level when he does anti hero. Which is specific to SRK unlike for Amitabh Bachpan or for Ranveer Singh… The fact the Srk with jawan and pathan has audience is such a high… that him in don 3 would have been euphoric for fans..

Almost all the priyadarshan movies in hindi which are remakes of malayalam movies are fantastic, the actors especially akshay, paresh rawal and rajpal yadav were just outstanding, its not easy to keep entertaining hindi audience for roughly more than a decade with comedic talent even Hrithik Roshan in bang bang and vikram vedha was phenomenal, bang bang just became one of the best remakes of a underwhelming movie in my opinion, and Vikram Vedha was watchable mainly because of Hrithik's performance as Vedha, atleast for me

[@roh2393]

For some reason Priyadarshan has not yet remade his best Malayalam comedies from the late 80's and early 90's. Hera Pheri, Bhaagam Bhaag were not even his movies in the original. His movies like Mazha Peyyunnu Maddalam Kottunnu, Aram + Aram = Kinnaram, Chitram were laugh riots and now there are more talented actors with great comic timing like Vijay Raaz, Pankaj Tiwari and Nawazuddin who can do some of these roles. I can imagine Akshay Kumar and Nawazuddin in Mazha Peyyunnu Maddalam Kottunnu remake which will be a sure shot blockbuster if they make it scene to scene and translate the dialogues like Hera Pheri .

Agneepath in my opinion is the best remake ever. I think remakes work when you don't copy the original but rather improve upon them. Don and Ghajini also do the same. Comparing the Ghajinis, I thought that Suriya was more charming in the romantic sequences while Aamir looked like a mini Hulk struggling to really move. The songs were good in both versions. The climax (no twins and him remembering Kalpana) and the eight pack of Aamir Khan made the Hindi version better. I don't agree with Tere Naam because the national award winning performance by Vikram has a special place for me. Bhool Bhulaiya is an insult to the Malayalam version. Vidya is no Shobana and Akshay Kumar's entry doesn't hold a candle against Mohanlal's. The fact remains that despite their skills, Akshay and Ajay Devgan have always paled in comparison to Mohanlal in all the remakes. I wish they changed something here or there in Vikram Vedha, because Hrithik definitely elevated it with his unique performance which was different from VJS. Akshay and Ajay should take a cue from Hrithik who brings out his own rendition of the character in remakes rather than try to imitate Mohanlal, which is impossible.

I feel Agneepath older version was better in below areas 1. Although Hrithik was good especially in the climax, I feel Amitabh's character was much better written and strongly enacted especially the introduction scene, scenes with his mother and with inspector played by Vikram Gokhale. 2. Sanjay Dutt's acting and his dialogues were the weakest part in the movie. Right from his scene with Rishi Kapoor to his laughter and some of his dialogues like Vijay Deenath ko marna padega were ineffective. Just going bald and bulking up doesn't make a good villain. Whereas, Danny Denzogpa was superb as a classy villain which was ahead of its time in Hindi cinema. His dialogue delivery style were anytime much better than Sanjay Dutt. 3. Background score of older one especially Danny's and Amitabh's intro scene, beach scene where Amitabh and Danny meet and the climax scene elavated the movie. Few areas where new one was better were the editing, Ajay- Atul's music and Rishi Kapoor's character.

The list as Jammy mentioned is as per his judgement. Of the films listed by him, the reach of the remake was more to do with matching the local sensibilities. Sethu was made on a shoe string budget and no takers to release. The so called depth in Salman’s acting is a pale shadow of what Vikram went through for the role. He stood in hot sun for the tan and not applied makeup. Moreover the psychotic rage mentioned was more grounded in the original. The Salman Aishwarya relationship at that time was an aiding tool in propelling the movie to its present status. Nothing against Salman but Vikram was head & shoulders above Any other actor who remade it

[@rahulshekar6418]

Sethu is by far superior to Tere Naam... Vikram missed out the National Award on a closest margin to Mohanlal.

[@ani-po1td]

Imo , the only aspect the hindi ghajini is better than the original one was the climax Original ghajini is better in remaining aspects

[@Infor629]

Chiyaan Vikram is for a reason no match to his abilities nor did salman out do. Maybe different for salmans filmography but not better than original coz he had to mimic Vikrams performance.

[@AJaY-me5qy]

Hindi Ghajini as movied is superb, undeniable.The climax is better executed, also better technical qualities. But two things makes the tamil Ghajini special. 1. Harris Jayaraj Music❤ ARR is the 🐐,. But man in gajini tamil version the songs and music is on another level. 2. Surya's Performance Even the Mr.Perfectionist Amir couldnt create that magic. Everytime Surya looks at Asin, its heavenly. ( Check that watermelon scene and when they enter the flat, i dont know those two scenes, if its the music or surya. Its just ❤)

[@MaestroManohar]

I think only the climax of the Hindi Ghajini made you think it's better than original. Other than that, there's nothing to differentiate between them, superb acting and though AR RAHMAN the legend composed everlasting music album in Hindi, even Harris Jayaraj in the original gave a chartbuster album, which we listen even today.

Being a South Indian, I greatly respect Bollywood legends like Amir Khan, Amitabh Bachan and Akshay Kumar for their natural performances.

Hrithik is the only one I consider to be a star despite him not doing excessive commercial roles. His acting, has made him a star more so than his commercial choices. Whenever he has done commercial roles, even then he has absolutely aced the characters-be it War, Fighter, Vikram Vedha, Agneepath and so many more. I feel his strength is in the mass x class category of films where he can satisfy both the audiences and critics. I just wish he would not be disheartened by Vikram Vedha's failure and do more grey characters like maybe Dev ftom Brahmastra? Or maybe he could do mythical roles like Karna or Lord Shiva? I would have loved him as Raavan in the Ramayana trilogy, and even though Yash is a fantastic choice, I feel Hrithik would have been an absolutely perfect choice. Again, Hrithik has fantastic on screen presence and an even better acting prowess. I don't have to praise his dancing skills as well, they are already well known, but I feel his looks and dance often overshadow the fantastic actor in Hrithik.

[@raja-jl9os]

[@venkateshsrinivasan692]

The Climax of Sethu was more believable because Vikram looked the part (He lost half his weight), but Salman didn't. But, I agree that Radhe has better arc than Chiyaan.

[@aryandhakal7961]

I may sound bias since being a huge Hrithik Fan. But if you just put a Hrithik Roshan Factor also aside. Then for me Agneepath has be top notch remake till date. I would even say Vikram Vedha also comes close. But at the end it's box office. And crowd were more leaned towards Agneepath. It's remarkable , everything was perfect from top to bottom (music, bgm, screenplay, antagonist and many more)

[@stevewhite6241]

[@nadeemnayeem3718]

The best remake in my view is " pyar tho hona hi tha " starring Ajay & Kajol which was the remake of telugu film " dongaata " starring jagapatibabu & soundarya as a lead And second one is " hum aapke Dil mein rehthe hain " again Kajol as main lead... Which is the remake of " Pavithra bandham " in which venkatesh & soundarya was a pair.... Both directed by anees bazmee and Sathish kaushik respectively... And yah tere naam was better... And Hrithik in Vikram vedha also nailed with performance... It's just a bad luck which killed it's quality.... Otherwise Vikram vedha is top notch performance oriented movie ..

[@homermontana2392]

Dongaata was itself a remake of hollywood movie french kiss

Tere naam will never be equal to sethu Bcos the personality of radhe is very easy to pull off as Salman's character is exactly the same. But Vikram's character irl is thoda alag ta . A true artist or an art is playing something which hard to pull off

[@AnkitGupta-u1n]

The first Singham was leaps and bounds ahead of the original Tamil version. Rohit Shetty took a great script and added his superb 'commercial' sensibilities to it. The result was one of the best action films of Hindi cinema ever... I don't care if it was over the top, the film is still one of my favorite 'masala' films of the past 20 years. Dabangg and Singham changed the game for the past decade as far as cinema trends are concerned.

Murder 2 better than The Chaser? You need to stop reviewing films completely.

[@firefox750]

Anyone's assessment of which version of the films, old or new, is better largely depends on which version they watched first. Additionally, there's a good chance that someone watching a 1980 movie in 2020 might not appreciate it as much. The novelty of that movie at the time has likely been replicated in numerous movies since. For instance, I didn't understand why 'Citizen Kane' is so highly rated until I learned about the innovative film techniques it introduced at the time. Lastly, a 'remake' essentially reimagines the original film, selecting the best parts while omitting those that might not appeal to contemporary audiences. This approach already offers a significant advantage. I believe it would be commendable for someone to take the premise of a failed film and remake it into a successful one.

[@alphastudios6220]

Hrithik 👑

[@bronzremix]

Agneepath, outside of the names of the characters and a small portion of the summarized plot really is not a remake. While Krishan Iyer MA is a depiction of a character who could be realistic for the time, the trouble is that explaining the context of such characters to 2000s kids is lost but 70s, 80s and 90s kids get it. His character was pure and innocent one who humanizes Vijay. It in essence shows the best aspects of humanity (saving someone, selflessness, loyalty, being faithful and honest) to not only remind the viewer that the hero of the film isn't a pure white hat. The sequences between the two parallel and help develop Vijay's true character. It shows that Vijay is a good person who has had to choose the bad path and can be the baddest guy. In the end this true honest pure guy, Krishan, tried to fight to save Vijay and upon failing he knows that had he had just a bit more time he could bring the pure good Vijay back. In 2012's Agneepath they reversed the development with, Vijay becoming bad. He murders someone who isn't on his arc, but because he is paired with a sinister (and more evil) Rauf Lala the story is now "Vijay is bad, but not as bad as these guys". The plans are awful with killing of characters which aren't on his arc, leading to Vijay being better (in the means of good) then Rauf to meet Kancha with a terrible plan and somehow not being killed. Rauf Lala (like Krishan) steals the show because (this is my opinion/thesis) they appear in the story to show you what the hero could have been. Had 1990 Vijay's father still living he'd be an educated pure hearted Madwha village guy, like how Krishnan is an educated, pure white good, kindhearted south Indian from a village. 2012's Vijay WANTS TO BE RAUF LALA... and Vijay has a love interest from the jump, even doing something heinous for that love. Both film arcs veer differently and like I stated outside of the names of the characters and a small portion of the summarized plot this is not a remake. These are not the same stories. Also, to say that Krishan Iyer MA is problematic and that changing Kancha CHEENA (as in Chinese) to a regular jacked Sanju can also appear in the chat. Standalone both are great films but too different to be a pure remake.

[@krishnakrupaur3727]

8:47 Though I love Ar Rahman with all my heart I would like to respectfully disagree on this point , While the music in the Hindi version of Ghajini may be good but the original soundtrack by Harris Jayaraj is incomparable and maintains a timeless freshness to it since its release.

Pretty good video Jammy though a key point to be noted is post the pandemic the consumption of original South content has increased manifold which makes remakes a very tricky business now. Drishyam 2 is probably the only remake to have worked post pandemic.

To me, Agneepath is still the best Hrithik Roshan movie till date. The direction, the acting, the casting, the soundtrack, everything was perfection.
