Soon after the video surfaced, some called it copied and some called it Hollywood’s revenge. A reddit user wrote, “This is a blatant copy but yet no one would have issues since it’s HW taking from BW.” While replying to the comment, another user wrote, “Ummm, there was a lot of criticism of a couple of scenes in Barfi copying iconic Hollywood scenes, especially the dummy on the couch scene from “Singing In The Rain”. Films regularly copy earlier films as do TV shows. It just happens. BTW before downvoting Barfi is one of my favorite films and I have watched it several times.”
Another user read, “Bro it is hundred percent copy because bajirao mastani is internationallly recognized movie. If you checkout any song of this movie or in general any SLB‘s songs comment section is owned by foriegners and many stars like grimes and elon musk also posted about this movie.” A comment even read, “mujhe lag hi raha tha kahi toh dekha hai aisa scene. Kinda funny how Bajirao’s scene actually looks good and realistic compared to PS1 background from shang chi. ab har jagah post karke viral karo isko.”
Meanwhile, Bajirao Mastani stars Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra in the lead roles. Helmed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the film was labelled as blockbuster at the box-office. The film made a lifetime collections of 356 crores.
