Amitabh Bachchan and Arjun Rampal starer Ek Ajnabee was a story cut out of Hollywood movie Man on Fire starring Denzel Washington. With Amitabh as Life Savior of a cute girl the entertainment quotient in the movie was lacking. Because of the slow pace of the story the movie emerged as a BO Dud.

Kaante / Reservoir Dogs
This Sanjay Gupta multi-starer with Amitabh, Sanjay Dutt and many more was a story based on Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs.

Dil Bole Hadippa / She's The Man
Dil Bole Haddipa was a story about a girl going after her dreams to play in men's cricket team. The story is very much on lines of Hollywood movie She's The Man in which Amanda Bynes had been in the lead. As far as the reception of Rani starer is concerned, the movie could only manage a below average status.

Kuch to Hai / I Know What You Did Last Summer
Well the movie deserves a thorough applause for being an absolute copy of its Hollywood version. In fact the movie had been tagged as one of the terribly bad life experiences by the viewers.
