The first look promo of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's highly anticipated Hrithik-Aishwarya starrer 'Guzaarish' was unveiled earlier this week. While the promo is quite splendid to say the least, the film does bear some resemblance to a 2004 Spanish film called The Sea Inside which is based on a true story of a sailor Ramdon Sampredo who becomes a quadriplegic following an accident. In 'Guzaarish', the buzz is that Hrithik, who plays a magician, ends up in a wheelchair because of an accident that happens when a magic trick goes wrong.
Bhansali's earlier films such as Black was also inspired from 'The Miracle Worker' while 'Saawariya' was loosely based on a Russian short story 'White Nights'.
While neither Bhansali nor his lead actors were in any mood to reveal even a bit about the story of 'Guzaarish' at the launch event, going by the promos of the two films, there is no denying that there is some similarity between 'Guzaarish' and 'The Sea Inside'.
