But the fans seem to have forgotten that Knives Out itself was a tribute to the old whodunits, most based on Agatha Christie novels. Like, for example, Murder on The Orient Express or Death on the Nile.

There is no denying the Agatha Christie influence in Raat Akeli Hai, but apart from that, it is hard to say that the film is a remake of Knives Out. In fact, the first movie that came to my mind after watching its trailer was슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Robert Altman's 2001 film Gosford Park, that also dealt with the murder of a rich and despicable슬롯 머신 사이트 추천industrialist, where the whole family and the servants come under the needle of suspicion. And yes, even Gosford Park is inspired by the Agatha Christie novels, even if it isn't a direct adaptation. Like Knives Out and Raat Akeli Hai.

What also helps Raat Akeli Hai's case of not being a remake of Knives Out is that it was in the making for two years. , it mentions how Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Radhika Apte are part of슬롯 머신 사이트 추천the film.

In fact, Nawazuddin had completed the shoot of the film in April 2019, while Knives Out came out in September 2019.

So, at this point, we can only conclude that both Knives Out and Raat Akeli Hai share a similar inspiration, rather than the former being inspired by the latter. Raat Akeli Hai is streaming on Netflix from July 31.
