6 Bollywood Directors Who Serve The Same Old Story In Every Film

Directors in Bollywood should finally accept that they are under the hangover of their own films. It's almost funny to realise that every time they make a film, they end up serving us the same story on a different platter. Here are six Bollywood directors who've been successfully fooling us with the same story. 

Priyadarshan

He is the master of chaotic comedies. He's a jack of all trades when it comes to utter confusion. Every film right from Hera Pheri to Bhool Bhulaiyya he has a proven track record of his own hangover. 

Karan Johar

Karan Johar has been under the love triangle hangover forever. From Kuch Kuch Hota Hai to Student of the Year, his movies have always been about one person getting friend-zoned or left out. His obsession with his trademark Kuch Kuch Hota Hai music and repeated symbolic /nostalgic references of his own movies says a lot about his hangover of his own movies.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali

SLB is a classic example of a person who has a hangover of his own films. He loves killing characters, and wants his lovers to go through immense pain, with zero guarantees of them meeting at the end of the movie. Happy endings are something he’s not consistent at, and with every single film, right from Ram Leela to Bajirao Mastani, he’s on his way to becoming our very own R R Martin from Game Of Thrones.

A girl meets a boy, most probably on a journey (Jab We Met, Tamasha, Jab Harry Met Sejal) and they fall in love. After some necessary tension and fights, they always end up together. Another consistent pattern in his movies is the fact that he refrains from having villainous characters. Everything becomes happy at the end.

Rohit Shetty

Cars blowing up in the air and senseless storylines are Rohit’s forte and also his hangover from all the movies right from his first film. He’s so drunk in his style of filmmaking that people have started considering it a genre, which in fact is a hangover.

Anurag Basu

Anurag Basu’s hangover after Barfi is not leaving him alone. His latest upcoming release Jagga Jasoos is reeking of his Barfi hangover. His visuals, music, presentation, and Ranbir are the cocktail which don’t let Anurag’s hangover die.
