A remake tells the same story as the original one but is often updated with the contemporary audience. There is various ways to present a piece of your creativity in front of the fans like a spinoff or reboot apart from remakes.
Bollywood has always eyed for only one goal of bringing in bucks no matter what source it comes from. Remakes have become the new origin for the same. Everyone craves for an out of box experience for the amount of money the viewers pay to watch a particular cinematic piece.
It is of utmost importance to pay tribute to the original film without ruining the any of the elements. It is also worth paying attention that the original film was suitable for its time and it becomes crucial that the film is modified according to present year. This necessary revision can be brought about by achieving the deeper layering in characters, making the messaging of the movie different from the original piece.
The audiences are very smart. The mindsets of the public have evolved over time. Therefore film makers have to really work hard for the masses to come in the theatres. Remakes should purposeful to make it a hit at the box-office. It should consist of modern avatar in terms of telling the story to the viewers instead of just negligible changes.
Remakes have also crossed over to industries. Bollywood has taken inspiration from the Tamil and Telegu films and vice versa. Bollywood has also managed to touch Hollywood as well as many foreign films in the name of remakes.
In my opinion Remakes is not a bad option to be explored by the makers but upholding the sentiments the original has created over a time period in audience’s memory is difficult and shouldn’t be messed with.
