    I am not participating because I have seen a Hindi movie so far in my life time.

  2. SG

    I am sorry. That should read “I have never seen a Hindi movie”.

      In the Indian education testing system, we always rejoice when we get a multiple answer question paper. We can choose some answers arbitrarily and get around 25% of the answers right.

      Even I have not seen many hindi movies mentioned here, I knew only one answer. But, my experience with multiple choice questions in exams, came in very handy πŸ™‚

      1. Sharath Komarraju

        When in doubt, the answer is ‘c’. Right? πŸ™‚

        1. Rajesh K

          Both ‘b’ and ‘c’ are good choices. I’ve got slightly better results with ‘b’ πŸ˜›

  3. Avada Kedavra

    They have remade in hindi. what the hell!!! That was the one I answered incorrectly.
    I got: Score7 / 8 Points ( 88% )
    Only because I had seen the English versions of these movies. I can’t believe so many movies are ripoffs of famous Hollywood ones. No wonder I get dejavu everytime I watch a hindi movie πŸ˜›

      LOL πŸ™‚ Inspired is the new word for remade πŸ˜›

    Ash,

    They won’t admit it is a remake from Hollywood. They will say it is their own original. Tamil Movie Avvai Shanmugi is a remake of Mrs. Doubtfire. When someone asked, the Tamil producer said: No, it is our own original. We have 7 songs. Mrs. Doubtfire does not have any song. Also, they don’t have Gemini Ganesan character.

    1. Avada Kedavra

      hahaha. That was good SG. How they defend themselves!!
      These days they mix scenes from multiple movies thinking audience won’t know.

  5. Kirtivasan

    I got 2 out of 8.
    It was interesting quiz. I liked participating.

    1. Rajesh K

      My score was also 2, but I knew the answer for one question somehow which took the total tally to 3 πŸ™‚

  6. Jeevan

    I got 5 / 8 Points ( 63% )
    I tried connecting the plot with titles πŸ˜‰ but actually i am not sure they are correct answers.

    1. Rajesh K

      I think, you should also try your luck in Indian competitive examinations where they use multiple-choice questions. You’re simply brilliant πŸ˜€

  7. Amruta Bhave

    Umm ahemm, I am no ardent supporter of Hindi movies, but some of these questions stretch the word ‘inspiration’ too far. For example, there is barely any resemblance between American Beauty and Nishabd, except for the father having a crush on his daughter’s friend part. The reasons, the consequences, and the story line is entirely different. (Although I did choose that answer for the lack of other suitable options :P)
    Also, Aabra ka Daabra inspired from Harry Potter? Seriously?? πŸ˜›

    1. Rajesh K

      Maybe, even if there is a slight resemblance, Bolly. movies are branded as copied! πŸ˜›

    interesting quiz

    1. Rajesh K

      Did you attempt it or omit it? It’s a bad idea to omit multiple choice questions, that too having studied under the Indian education system πŸ™‚

  9. Amith

    Nice. You could also have included an Emraan Hashmi film which is the remake of ‘Out of Time’. My score 7/8

  10. Shilpa Garg

    Got 4/8 πŸ˜€
    Interesting!

  11. Anita

    4/8 πŸ™‚
    I love Hindi movies & Quizzes!
    Though I have watched some of the Hindi movies given in the Quiz, wasn’t aware of the names of their Hollywood versions!
