  There is nothing strange in it. Priyan never made any film which is not copied from any other language . Kakkakuyil was copied from Marathi Drama.

  Rahul B,

  Eda Makkalle,
  Ariyatha karyangallil poyi dialog adikarude...
  
  KakkaKuyil has some parts from "Fish called Wanda", that is the bank robbery & related parts...
  
  Raakilipattu was the based on the Marathi play, Bindhast, I think that was the name...
  
  Vettam is most likely to be based on French Kiss... Is there a movie called Forget Paris?

  Pinne Priyante creativity ye kurichu dialogs adikalle makkale...
  
  He has given some of the biggest hits in the Malayalam films, his creativity is not in story writing his creativity is in the takings & presentation... He has never claimed that he is a great story writer or anything like that...
  
  He is the only Malayalam director to be successful even in BOLLYWOOD...
  
  He has got so many ADV contracts that he can do that full time and still makes Crores per year... Large multinational Company's from many countries like Japan & Korea come to him to make their ads...
  
  Just because you guys dont like Mohanlal, you want to talk trash about Priyan too.. Onnu poda pillere

  I dont think FORGET PARIS is based on a theif traveling to a different place. I believe it was a story where BILLY CRYSTAL played a basketball referee. I totally forgot this movie.
  
  But PYAR TO HO NI THA was based on FRENCH KISS, which is going to be remade in Malayalam as VETTAM. COPY aanengilum allengilum PRIYAN is one of the BEST DIRECTOR out there. His directions, his camera works, the way of telling stories are amazing. He is known as one of the best director in bollywood too.
  
  I dont think remaking a good movie to malayalam as a bad thing. What is wrong with watching a remade movie in malayalam?? Not all the people doesnt watch marathi plays, and english films.

  I did a little research and FRENCH KISS was made in 1995, then Hindi version was made in 1998

  Mone Kadalo,
  
  Vere ethra peru cheyunundu ee straigth lifting... but they are not able to generate hits...
  
  How many Malayalam films copied into Hindi have been hits? I can probably count them... (Julie, Hathya, Gardhish, Hera Pheri & Hungama)... is there anything more than this?
  
  Indiayil ulla 90% directorsum do this flicking of stories or scenes from other movies... Can you please tell me someone who doesnt do so... it will be a rather difficult task...

  But One thing is to be accepted.Even though he steals the iddea from other movies,He will bring freshness to the movie.Not like other directors who simply copies scene by scene.For Eg,Thaalavattom is a remake of Jack Nicholson's award winning movie "One who flew over cuckoo's nest".But U won't feel it at all.U won't feel Thaalavattom is a remake of an Eng Movie.Thats the difference b/w Priyan & Mani Rathnam and Many malayalee directors with Hindi directors.

  vettam has a story-line thats similar to "french kiss".and "kakkakuyil" was "a fish named wanda" revisited.
  all of us talk of priyan being a lifter but dont u think he remakes with a certain amount of cinematic acumen???all his remakes have actually according to me very well transalated to suit the primary section of audience who view the film.if u look closely he never fakes an attitude thru his film(leave alone boing2,vandanam,adhwaitham and kaalapaani-wot i consider his weakest films).ella characters-inte behaviour nallathayi justify cheyyarunddu pullikkaran.athu oru director-inte kazhivalle???kamal chitrangal kaanumbol pole ulloru ffeling enikku priyan chitrangal kaanubol thonnitilla.kaml-inte pala cimemakalillum enikku oru character-inte attitude properly justified alla ennu thonniyittundu.
