	Movies - Kaante

Kaante is a 2002 Bollywood film directed by Sanjay Gupta and starring Amitabh Bachchan in the lead role. The film is a Hindi remake of Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs
.

Plot

The movie is a copy of Reservoir Dogs which in turn was inspired by Ringo Lam's "City on Fire" starring Chow Yun Fat. The plot isn't changed at all from the original movie, though the scenes have been altered to the liking of Indian viewers. It also lifts a scene from the Usual Suspects but still after a few "inspirations" due to a few alterations (such as character backgrounds, bollywood song and dance), the movie manages to stand up on its own feet.

Trivia

The film was to star Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Sunil Shetty, Akshaye Khanna, Mahesh Manjrekar, Kumar Gaurav and Shilpa Shetty initially. But Akshaye Khanna opted out of the project subsequently, while Malaika Arora stepped in Shilpa's shoes.

This was Amitabh Bachchan's 100th lead role.

The film was completely shot in LA and used Hollywood technicians.

Controversy

Kaante director Sanjay Gupta was involved in a long court case about this movie due to its being a copy of Reservoir Dogs.
