The production designer of Thugs of Hindostan as well as Aamir Khan have denied taking inspiration from Pirates of the Caribbean inspiration for the Yash Raj film. But it looks like there are a lot of people who do not agree with Aamir and the crew of Thugs of Hindostan. Ever since the trailer has dropped, people are comparing Thugs of Hindostan with Pirates of the Caribbean and Aamir’s firangi with Johnny Depp’s Captain Jack Sparrow. Not just that, fans have also pointed out that a lot of the film’s action looks similar to the Pirates movies.
Here are some of the reactions from Twitterati:

The same theme! Jack being loyal to none ends up being saviour of all! AB looks Barbossa, Kat is Kiera and that Dangal wali may have replaced Will Turner. ! Others are fine but how can one even dare to get compared with Johnny as Jack Sparrow.. comparison with him is your loss!

It may be recalled that the production designer has denied using Pirates of the Caribbean for reference of the film. He said that he has never watched to Johnny Depp’s Pirates of the Caribbean. Speaking to Times Now, Sumit Basu said, “It never came to our mind. Our life was much simpler, we know the period, we know the ships. We are talking about Andalusia, we know those ships and people know there are replicas of those ships floating in the water. So… I never take reference from films.”
A year ago Aamir Khan also said that Thugs of Hindostan and Pirates of the Caribbean have no similarities. “There are some hundreds of action adventure films. There is Pirates of Caribbean, there is Indiana Jones and many others. All these are action adventure films. So the genre of our film is action adventure but the story is different. Even my character in the film is not similar to any other character,” he said at a chat show.
Thugs of Hindostan will be releasing across 17 IMAX theatres in India and select international markets beginning November 8. Advance booking will start from November 2 across all operators, a day prior to the advance booking for other screens, read a statement. The movie is directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya. The film stars Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh. ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ is set in the era when the East India Company ruled over India. It brings a story of rebel, love and freedom on the big screen.
