Remake is not meant to copy frame to frame. I feel gopala gopala as B-town movie(north nativity) as locations are also similar to OMG.
Agreed remakes are tested-and-proved, but it doesn't stop a filmmaker from throwing in some creativity to give it a personal touch. With a thought-provoking universally appealing subject, there's so much one can do with a film like OMG.
But sadly director Kishore Kumar Pardasani resorts to merely retelling the story in a different language with different characters barring Mithun who's retained from the Hindi version.
For those who've seen the original, it's unlikely that the remake will keep them hooked. And for others, it might come across as a refreshing change from the stink of commercial cinema which usually serves stories that have been milked dry.
Verdict: No excitement after watching movie
