We get none of this in "Aashiqui 2," which, instead, casts two relative unknowns in the leads. Judy Garland's tragic image was the most striking case, with the lead male's alcoholism becoming an allegory for her real-life drug problems and difficulties with the Hollywood studio system, the press and her fans. In the first three iterations, the leading actresses were all attempting a comeback on some level. "A Star Is Born" is at its best when the scenario-originally about Hollywood filmmaking and only later, in 1976, 2018 and this version, about the music industry-reflects the real-life images of the stars that made it.

This body is filled with generic Bollywood escapism into emotionalism, including sappy songs. Only the body remains, which is the least alluring part. Unfortunately, the filmmakers here stripped "A Star Is Born" of all of its self-reflexive intelligence, as well as the superior innovations in production-leaving merely the plot and reworked scenes. Even the Hindi language here is comprised of many borrowings from English. ("Aashiqui 2," itself, by the way, was also remade-in Telugu as "Nee Jathaga Nenundali" (2014).) "Aashiqui 2," however is a combination of two traditions, of Bollywood and Hollywood. I'm sure there've been more than two of those, too. Kalank is being produced by Karan Johar and Sajid Nadiadwala and is slated to release on April 17, 2019.In India, a sequel may not mean the same thing it does in Hollywood, apparently, as the title of "Aashiqui 2" would suggest that it's a continuation of the narrative from "Aashiqui" (1990), but it's not instead, this is another remake of a familiar Hollywood scenario, "A Star Is Born" (made in 1937, 19 before being once again remade in 2018), while supposedly being a repetition of the themes of the first "Aashiqui," which seems to merely mean that it's another romantic musical.

Also, the songs from the film like First Class, Kalank title track, Aira Gaira and Ghar More Pardesiya are also doing well on the charts. The trailer showcases the triangle between Alia, Varun and Aditya. Kalank is a tale of love between Roop and Zafar and is set in the 1940’s pre-partition time. The film also stars Varun Dhawan, Sonakshi Sinha, Alia Bhatt, Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit. Meanwhile, Aditya will be seen Abhishek Varman’s Kalank as Dev. It was amazing how Bradley Cooper acted, sang in it and directed a new actor (Gaga). In an interview with Bombay Times, Aditya said, “A lot of people messaged me saying how the Hollywood film was inspired by Aashiqui 2 (smiles) and how a lot of scenes were similar. The Kalank star also appreciated Bradley’s acting in the film and also the fact that he sang and directed Lady Gaga also.

Aditya also mentioned that he loved the film and was a huge fan of Bradley Cooper. Aditya stated that he found that observation very funny. In a recent interview, Aditya was asked about it felt to him when people approached him and told that A Star is Born seemed to be inspired by his film Aashiqui 2. For the folks who have seen the film, some scenes between Bradley and Lady Gaga have a similar look as the ones between Shraddha and Aditya.

Speaking of this, many people believed that Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga’s film A Star is Born took some inspiration from Aditya Roy Kapur and Shraddha Kapoor’s film Aashiqui 2. However, in a rare scenario, some Hollywood films also take some inspiration from Bollywood movies. Many times, Bollywood films take inspiration from Hollywood films and end up doing great business at the box office.
