Little Boy is just the seed of the idea, Tubelight is different: Kabir Khan

Reacting to criticism over his similarities between his upcoming film ‘Tubelight’ and the Hollywood film ‘Little Boy’, Filmmaker Kabir Khan has said ‘Little Boy’ was officially credited in the teaser of the Hindi film.

He also said the story and treatment of ‘Tubelight’ is completely different from ‘Little Boy’.

“It is in the credits of Tubelight as Official Story Adaptation. But it’s just the seed of an idea. Everything else has been completely changed in Tubelight” Kabir Khan was quoted as saying.

Little Boy is a story about a child who sets out on a journey to find his father who has gone on war, but ends up giving lessons on humanity to everyone around him. Salman’s character in ‘Tubelight’ is said to be based on the child, with the backdrop of the 1962 Sino-Indian war.

‘Tubelight’ is scheduled to release in theatres on June 23.

    there is hell lot of difference between official remake and adaptation.

    I do not understand why this site is giving false review about Teaser, because all the other sites have praised it and said this is the best of 2017.

    this what we know and what we watched of his movies what we still didnt watch will make us realise that his almost whole filmography is a copycut
    and after all a bhaitard comes pompously claiming originality in his zerohero bhaai ouvres lol

  • @Salman Fan
    U saw trailer??
    From trailer kick seemed to be krissh and Bajrangi seemed to be Veer zaara

  • Little has to be said about Salman Khan and originality in this film…Give me Baahaula 2 any day……I suspect that Tubelight will not cross 250 chores in India, and only make that because it stars Salman. Overseas, it will not outstand at the box-office.

  • @chall
    I’ve no problem with your global king’s unofficial remakes…. But if you guys blabber whole the day over Bhai’s official remakes then I’ll definitely say something about your global king’s unofficial remakes…!
