I am just tired of "some" people trying to justify that their remake shows are original and better than original made Bangla shows. Listen here,
If there were no Sreemoyee, there wouldn't be Aai Kuthe Kaay Karte or Anupamaa
If there were no Ke Apon Ke Por, there wouldn't be your mega hit SMNKA or SNS 2.
I am not saying that Bangla serials have not been remade from other language shows, but we KNOW how to express gratitude and respect the original, however good or bad it may be. Bodhuboron, the remake of SNS, was way different than the original since it's inception, but honestly, we didn't feel the urge to say that it is original or revised. Because the idea of the serial is copied. And that's how it works.
However, when it comes to us getting the same for our ORIGINAL show ideas been used to make remakes, which become hits (also another factor that their rival channel competition is less at that point of time, maybe), we don't get the same, rather, they try to justify how much originality they have, and I would just call them UN-grateful.
Same like they call Bhool Bhulaiyya great, but forget to give respect to the original masterpiece, "Manichitrathazhu".
And that's how the South went on to shine in the last decade. They had enough of the ungratefulness and chauvinism from us, and hence they are slayin' it now. That's hard to digest, but time will help digest it better. Thanks!
