Karan Buys Rights of Stepmom

Karan Johar

It seems like Bollywood is always ripping off Hollywood film ideas.

Whether it's a small subplot or the entire thing-there are always elements from films that seem to be eerily similar to their Hollywood counterparts.

Director Karan Johar has reportedly bought the rights to the Hollywood movie 'Stepmom' which starred Susan Sarandon and Julia Roberts. The movie follows the life of one woman who marries a man with children
and must deal with the ex-wife who is very much a part of the kids'
lives.

It is reported that Karan Johar will being filming the 'Stepmom'remake after he is done with 'My Name is Khan'. The movie will be directed by Siddharth Malhotra. The film is also going to bring Kajol and Kareena Kapoor team up for a second time since their sisterly act in 2001's 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham'.

Many Bollywood films that have been exact copies or very comparable to Hollywood movies include, 'Meri Yaar Ki Shaadi' ('My Best Friend's Wedding'), 'Ghajini' ('Memento'), 'Raaz' ('Ring 1' and 'Ring 2').

The Indian audiences accepted these films, will they do the same for the Bollywood remake of "Stepmom"? I guess we will just have to wait to find out.

So we want to know what our readers to think about Karan Johar officially buying the rights to the Hollywood movie 'Stepmom'.Send in your comments to us and let us know!!!
