Bollywood meets Studio Ghibli: Netizens reimagine iconic film scenes with latest AI trend
These days, social media is flooded with Ghibli-style animation. Why? You are not the only one wondering. The latest ChatGPT update allows users to create Ghibli-style artwork, and all hell broke loose on the Internet ever since.
This trend is not just a celebrity killer; it has also given a makeover to some iconic golden moments of Bollywood. Movies like Sholay (1975), Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), Hera Pheri (2000), and Baahubali (2015) have all been patternized into dreamy, hand-drawn animated films straight out of a Hayao Miyazaki movie.
One of the most viral posts came from X user Vivek Choudhary, who uploaded AI-generated art of Bollywood classics imagined within a Ghibli world. Fans simply went crazy over seeing the Bravo Trio–Raju, Baburao, and Shyam–assumed to be cute, Totoro-style chibis. And beside that was a scene from Baahubali with FWDs of the breathtaking landscape glimmered in soft magical hues. Not to miss, the legendary DDLJ train scene was touched with sheer fantasy.
Another viral post by Ishika featured Ghibli-style recreations of Om Shanti Om, Rockstar, Pushpa, and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, which made those Bollywood moments even more magical.
More movies got Ghibli-fied and here are some viral posts:
This crazy spree is not just limited to Bollywood; Hollywood buffs are also riding this trend, sharing Ghibli-style visualizations of venerable scenes from Star Wars, The Godfather, The Lord of the Rings, Jurassic World, and Harry Potter. The fusion of Western cinematic classics with Ghibli’s soft, whimsical charm has won a host of hearts.
Yet some deplore this AI-driven trend. The legendary animator of Studio Ghibli, Hayao Miyazaki, has long maintained a strong anti-artificial stance. A tortuous artist known for his painstakingly hand-drawn frames and rich, vivid storytelling, Miyazaki turned his back on digital animation, even as it came to dominate the industry.
