Ellarume thirudanggattan. There is a thin blur line between getting inspired and copying.

like "pudhiya paravai" uruvified from "following the crooked shadow"?

if uruvified why does times magazine recognise nayagan?...

if u say inspiration and copying has thin line..."pather panchali" is inspired from a western drama....is sathyajitray a thirudan

Maybe I was wrong. But as long as you credit the original, then it's okay. That is the point of remakes, you credit the original guy and your do your version.

The digression I have with Nayagan is that he took scenes from other movie. Athan en manasu thaanggala. And not credited. I like mani, and I am crazy about Kamal, but both have taken and not credited the original source. That is copying.

Now, inspiration would something that is taken and is further improvised. Remember, the climax of MMKR? It was taken from one Chaplin movie. Same house, same edge of the hill, but Kamal added a whole bunch of crowd, himself in four roles and had hell of a time. that is inspiration.

But you are right, I won't call it thin blur line. But the line is quite thin.

sorry to say this Vikki. But I think u mistunderstood what "groucho" said. He said there is only minimal difference between getting inspired and copying.

He didn't refer to anyone in particular. He referred to the word "Inspiration " being used by many to hide their copying, I think.

btw, Only Nayagan got recognition in the magazine. Right ? I have nothing against this as long as it enriches tamil cinema.

But anyway mistake is a mistake. Be it inspiration or copying.
