List of Tollywood Movies Copied from Hollywood Movies
The first Telugu copycat I came across was Homam. I watched that movie and felt it was great until I watched The Departed. I also had good expectations about Action 3D movie. But after watching the first 15 minutes or so, I severely disappointed as I already watched the Hangover.
Later I came to know a lot about such movies. Here I presented a few movies which I came across.
