Ever since the number one director of tollywood, S.s.rajamouli disclosed the story of 'Eega' through its trailer, many speculations have been making rounds about the real inspiration of this movie. Many people are saying that 'Eega' movie's story has been inspired by Rajamouli's industry hit movie 'Magadheera', as that movie's story was based on reincarnations. On the other hand, as per the observations of film nagar people, the visual effects of this movie have been inspired from Shankar's 'Robot' movie.
However, a few of the cine intellectuals are saying that the story of 'Eega' was really inspired from 'Athmabandham', that was released in the year, 1991. Suman and Lizi are the star cast of this movie. As per the story of this movie; Suman and Lizi are a married couple and live happily. However, Suman is killed by a villain. Subsequently, Suman's soul comes out of his dead body and wants to take revenge on the villain. Rest of the story deals with how he takes his revenge on the villain. Isn't 'Eega's story exactly similar to this story? Of course, 'Athmabandham' story was also inspired by a hollywood movie's story.
