Darr – Fear

Yash Chopra's romantic thriller Darr (1993), starring Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla, found a similar plot in James Foley's 1996 Hollywood film Fear, whose title is literally taken from the Bollywood film. Mark Wahlberg's stalker character also wrote Nicole with a piece of glass on his chest, just as Shah Rukh wrote his love interest Kiran's name on his. Reese Witherspoon played Nicole in Fear.

A Wednesday – An Ordinary Man

Neeraj Pandey's 2008 thriller pitted the anonymous common man played by Naseeruddin Shah against the Mumbai police chief played by Anupam Kher. In 2013, Sri Lankan filmmaker Chandran Rutnam made a similar film in English, in which British actor Ben Kingsley played the eponymous common man.

Top Si Baat – Hitch

Basu Chatterjee's 1976 romance, starring Amol Palekar, Vidya Sinha and Ashok Kumar, is believed to have inspired the concept of Andy Tennant's 2005 Hollywood film Hitch, starring Will Smith. Both films revolve around a shy man who lacks the conviction to approach a woman he loves, but is trained by a love guru to do so.

Like Imtiaz Ali's 2007 blockbuster, starring Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor, Anand Tucker's 2010 romantic comedy Leap Year, starring Amy Adams and Matthew Goode, revolves around the journey of a woman who is on her way to tell a man she loves him, but is interrupted by multiple obstacles, including feelings for another man who tries to unite them.
