Hindu statesman Rajan Zed has strongly criticized Bollywood filmmakers for blatantly recreating Hollywood themes while ignoring India’s abundance of great tales ready for adaptation for the big screen. India had a longstanding tradition of scriptural and folk tales and various languages of India were loaded with literary themes to choose from, Zed, who is president of Universal Society of Hinduism, added.

While Hollywood “Stepmom” was filmed in New York and New Jersey states of USA, the Bollywood “Stepmom” will be shot in Australia and USA. Tagline for Hollywood “Stepmom” was: “Be there for the joy. Be there for the tears. Be there for each other”.
