The idea is somewhat copied from memento. i like amir khan movies but somehow disappointed to see that they have the same plot as memento movie

Really an excellent film from Bollywood.Yes it is a remake of the Hollywood film memento but it's awesome and terrific and wonderful.The story was good.The direction from AR murgados was awesome.The screenplay was nice.The dialogues were awesome.The songs were really beautiful good and pleasant to hear.And yeah it has the method actor of Bollywood Aamir khan so the acting will be definitely terrific and awesome by him The acting by Asin was good too.So yes guys it's a must watch film and remember guys the story is really very sad.

Short term memory loss is the main subject the film actually deals with. Short term memory loss is the subject that is inspired from Hollywood movie memento. I however liked the movie Ghajini much more because of its story (with romance at its base) and positive ending. I like positive endings. Thus giving it a rating 8/10.When I watched Ghajini for first time emotions flew through me. I liked the story. Also when I watched it for the first time I liked the action. When I watched it again, it was not as good as watching it for first time.Aamir- Mr. Perfectionist has well carved out his physique and acting for requirement of his role. A.R. Murugadoss is a director worth praising. A spoiler - Ghajini is name of villain and not our short term memory loss patient Aamir (Sanjay Singhania).

Ghajini is an Indian psychological thriller film directed by A.R.Murugodoss and is a remake of a Tamil film of the same name released in 2005. Ghajini's linear story followed a sequence of events and ends with a typical happy ending (sort of) to provide closure for the audience. The film follows Sanjay Singhania (Aamir Khan), the protagonist of the film with his hunt for Ghajini, the man behind the murder of his girlfriend Kalpana Shetty (Asin). Sanjay suffers from anterograde amnesia, which prevents him from forming new memories, as a result of which he is unable to remember anything for more than around 15 minutes. This film is actually two films in one, first being the romantic-comedy flashback of Sanjay and Kalpana, and the other being the gore and violent present following the death of Kalpana. The most entertaining part of the film was the light romantic-comic backstory where rich businessman falls for middle class model Kalpana Shetty. The protagonist hides his identity and pretends to be a struggling actor to spend more time with Kalpana. This romantic backstory could have been a separate film in itself. Music and background score by A.R. Rahman were integrated well within Ghajini, with Behka, Kaise Mujhe Tum, and Guzarish being the highlights. There was decent chemistry between the lead pair. One of the cons of the movie was that it was too long; then again the movie was actually two movies in one. I'd say the movie is a one-time watch. Some people also claim that Ghajini is a remake of Christopher Nolan's Memento to which I strongly oppose. This film is NOT a remake of Memento. The confusion is created from the fact that both of their lead characters suffer from anterograde amnesia who used a Polaroid camera and tattoos to remember things. Also, both of the lead characters were driven by the murder of their dead wife/girlfriend and the urge to avenge. But these things don't suffice for being called a "remake". Ghajini followed a linear narrative in contrast to the mind-blowing non- linear narrative of Memento. The story that follows is again totally different. I advise the people who haven't watched Memento to go watch it and not give in to the hype that Ghajini is a remake of Memento.
