 About Closer

Closer is a 2004 film written by Patrick Marber, based on his award-winning play of the same name. It was a story involving deception, infidelity, intimacy and sacrifice, and was produced and directed by Mike Nichols.

Those who have watched Closer (2004) starring Clive Owen, Julia Roberts, Natalie Portman and Jude Law, will remember it as an adult drama dealing with relationships.

The Love Bee buzz

The buzz is that Dharmesh Darshan's Bhanvraa starring telly actors Manav Gohil, Shveta Salve, Eijaz Khan and Sangeeta Ghosh, is a remake of the Mike Nichols film.

The tagline of Bhanvraa reads The Love 'Bee' Stings! and is said to be a romantic drama with shades of adultery and passion. A source close to the film reveals that Dharmesh Darshan made his film identical to Closer.

Common threads

Closer is the story of four characters whose paths cross each other leading them into a series of tumultuous relationships and affairs. A source reveals that Bhanvraa has a similar storyline with the four characters. "Bhanvraa is a thriller with an adult theme.

While the setting is different, the common thread of these four characters swapping partners and meeting each other at different points in time is very similar to Closer."

However, director Dharmesh Darshan defends this allegation and denies any similarity with Closer. "This is untrue. There are no similarities between Bhanvraa and Closer.

Bhanvraa is a fresh take on today's modern, contemporary urban youth."

Dangerous thriller

When asked if like Closer, Bhanvraa too uses sex and adultery in its plot, Darshan says, "There's no adultery, but the film is a dangerous thriller. I can't talk much about it but it's an intense romantic film with four strong characters."
