Why is nobody suing these people?

Apparently, that can be blamed on an oldschool law system, and also the unwillingness of Hollywood to go after these petty theives.

We've heard that you have prove, in Indian courts, that atleast twenty scenes have been copied to the frame to prove illegal copying of copyright work.

Recently though, a New York based novelist was able to [briefly] stop a show from being aired because it's story had been stolen from one of her novels. The Sahara TV show reported cost over U.S. $13 million to produce, and featured some of the top Bollywood stars.

The courts later allowed the station to go ahead with the show's broadcast.

Also, not all movies are complete copies, some really have taken only "inspirations".

This is good work done by bollycat to aware about the bollywood coping
Bollywood made movies with coping of Hollywood and after that they critisize the Hollywood. and even they compare there movies with the Hollywood and they pretent that they are very hard working and visionry people. I think some law should be impose for copyrighing and or i have best opinion for bollywood better open a dubbing centar rather making movie again. Good Luck Bolly Cat

Also globally copyright protection is always for a specified period of time. In India if i remember right it was 15 or 20 Years.

Now because bollywood is twice as much as hollywood as said by even american TV channels, it makes people think. How can a film industry become number one if they steal films?? Well, how can u tell. u couldn't even find a good job for urself. Bollywood is far more better, with more talented and demanded people. Imagine ShahRukh Khan being a pakistani, then he would have been selling fruits somewhere. Just being an Indian(part of bollywood) makes a difference there buddy.

Grow up!!! This website is made by a pakistani who are born losers. They always lose to India, be it war or any skillful thing. These pakistanis forget that even after they go to foreign countries, they are not respected. They still have a tag of streetfighters and dull people with them. The respect of Brown colour is only preserved by Indians. Not people who know nothing except for fighting in streets. SO SHUT UP PAKIS!!!!! BTW, paki means a person who cleans shit from the streets. You shit cleaners go to hell.

Well I don't have a problem with the bollycat idea. It's not a sd pitiful thing. How much stuff does hollywood rip off other countries without even acknowledging.

Lion King springs to mind immediately

but there are heaps of movies out there, many which hollywood has not paid for.

Get some persepctive.

it is sorry that nobody sues them . look at fight club for instances , i don't think the guys will have to priove anything . they have a copyright for the titles too don't they, atleast in india they make such a fus about the titles , these ppl are thieves all of them run by underworld guys there can b no question of ethics . they r also diehard hollywood wannnabes , i gues hollywood guys don,t have the time to waste on these petty thieves.if they sue them these guys will go bankrupt paying the damages.

abe bhenchod terrorists salon,
you guys are still alive?? I thought you guys would have died by now in Kashmir or Afghanistan. My question is, why people like you don't get sued? Well because no ones gives a damn about you mo. fo. terrorists. Even Hollywood adapts movies from other countries. If the issue of plagiarism is raised, then Hollywood will be exposed as well. But all in all, its feeding useless pieces of retards like you. It gives you something to work on except from killing other people.
Zarqawi is dead, watch your back now. Now guys are gonna suffer the same fate.

The sad part is that these people like to refer to themselves as artists. It is easy to copy someone elses work and pass it off as your own. True art is creating something not copying. Picasso, Da Vinci, these people didnt become famous for copying other peoples art. One thing is inspiration but frame by frame copying without permission not cool.
