As Netflix series ‘Squid Game’ rises in popularity, netizens point out its similarities with Bollywood movie ‘Luck’
After watching the new K-drama Squid Game, many have pointed out the similarities between the show and 2009 Bollywood flick Luck.
As soon as the new show Squid Game dropped on Netflix, netizens couldn’t help but notice the uncanny similarities it had with the Bollywood movie Luck. Fans have now put forth claims that Bollywood had, indeed, tackled the theme first in 2009.
Many have been pointing out that the show follows a similar plot as that of the movie. Both stories revolve around people who desperately need money, compete with each other to play deadly games and the extent to which they would go to win the fortune offered by a bored millionaire.
Viewers are of the opinion that perhaps the only differences between the two productions are that Squid Game is better written and has a better budget than Luck. This, they feel, is why the series has garnered so much attention compared to the movie which only managed to record an average box office performance.
