When I was watching Avatar for the ‘n’th time, a strange thought came to my mind, 'Is this film not similar to Vietnam colony?'

And remember Vietnam colony released in 1994 and James Cameroon said that the Avatar script was ready in 1995 and he also said that Avatar had many inspirations from India including the title (Something fishy).

So lets compare the two stories side by side:

1.Vietnam Colony: Prabhu and Koundamani are appointed by a real estate company to a notorious  colony  called  Vietnam  colony  as this colony has high real estate values.

Avatar: Sam  Worthington  is  appointed  by the RDA Corporation to go to Pandora as the place has a valuable mineral called unabtomium.

2.Vietnam Colony: Prabhu disguises himself as a writer and becomes a member of the colony.

Avatar: Sam disguises himself as a Navi and becomes a member of Pandora.

3.Vietnam Colony: Prabhu falls in love with the heroine (Jujilipa) who is a resident of Vietnam colony.

Avatar: Sam falls in love with Saldana who is a resident of Pandora

4.Vietnam Colony: While Prabhu was trying to cheat the colony residents and throw them out of the colony, he understands that the company is doing injustice and tries to help the residents

Avatar: While Sam was trying to cheat the Pandora residents , he understands that the company is doing injustice and tries to help the residents.

5.Vietnam Colony: Prabhu finally joins hands with the colony residents and fights against his company.

Avatar: Sam joins hands with the Navis and fights against his company.

6.Vietnam colony: At the end of the movie Prabhu becomes a Vietnam colony resident.

Avatar: At the end, Sam becomes a Pandaro resident.

Aren’t the 2 movies similar…?

Even some scenes had similarities. Remember the scene where the auto driver gets afraid of the rowdy (Ravuthar) but Prabhu thinks that the auto driver is afraid of him. There is a similar scene in Avatar (first half)where a small beast gets afraid of a bigger one but Sam things that the beast is afraid of him…

There seems to be only 1 difference between the two movies-one made with more than 1000 crores, another with less than a crore!!
