Aamir's Look in Ghajini
Most of you may have heard about the new Aamir Khan movie, the one in which he sports a weird haircut? Yeah, the short cropped hair with bald lines shaved through. The movie is called Ghajini. And you know what, this movie is a remake of a Tamil/Telugu film from 2005, which was called (guess…?).. Ghajini.
I say this because the writer and director of this 2008 Hindi movie is the same as that of the 2005 Tamil movie. Mr A R Murugadoss doesn’t mind making the same movie all over again. BUT, the connection doesnt end here. Murugadoss got the idea of this movie from a 2000 English movie called Memento, directed by Christopher Nolan, the same guy who co-directed The Dark Knight. Memento also features Carrie-Anne Moss, who also played Trinity in the Matrix series.
Have I told you about the plot? Well, the story in all three movies is basically about a man who is suffering from a unique memory condition, because of which he has short-term memory loss. So, with the help of tattoos he makes on his body and photographs that he takes using a polaroid camera, he reminds himself time and againof his mission- to hunt down and kill the man who murdered his girlfriend.
Fascinating, isn’t it? And for a moment I thought that Murugadoss thought up this idea on his own. Nah…
