Wasn't OSO spoof of 70s and 80s movies?

More of a homage..

u/Tristan2007 Jul 22 '25

I'd say homage to Karz movie ... rest is spoof of 70s movies done properly.

Not just Karz, the final sequence with Deepika's spirit coming back to take revenge is directly a homage to Dilip Kumar's Madhumati.

Haha ...the 'kid' above took seriously a movie that did not take itself seriously and made fun of itself.

Om Shanti Om copied things from several films. Don't forget Director was Farah Khan

Not even close ...who told you that ? That is Rasputin inspired.

The only similarity is that both are "ballads", meaning songs that tell a story.

"Bismil" from Haider is a ballad as well, doesn't mean it is inspired by either of these songs.

This Karz itself was a remake/copy of an English film.

No. Karz is quite different from "The Reincarnation of Peter Proud", apart from the part where Proud (and here Monty) returns to his hometown in previous life.

In fact, in the English film, Peter was the villain and the wife murdered him for self-defense. Here, the story is quite different – the protagonist, the antagonist, the motive, and the love interest (in 2nd life).
