Why is Bollywood so reckless and insincere?

Bollywood is known for its wayward ways of copying Hollywood themes so recklessly. It has now become kind of a standard to copy the non-desi themes and even our well-informed critics have resigned to this fate. They also need movies to review, it is their daily bread, and unless Bollywood doesn’t produce stuff, what would they do?

But, now the Roshans have made headways in this space by copying a desi music for their upcoming movie Krazzy4! Remember that the Roshans camp has a well-acclaimed music composer in Rajesh Roshan and still they had to stand the shame of the court ruling against them. There is a very nice story on this topic in DNA.

The original composer of the music, Ram Sampath, has won a whopping Rs. 2 crore through an out-of-court-settlement with the Roshans. That is quite a fortune.
