Yes, there are several Indian movies inspired by Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet." One of the most notable is "Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak" (1988), which features a tragic love story reminiscent of the classic play. Another example is "Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela" (2013), directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, which incorporates elements of the original narrative within a vibrant, contemporary setting. These adaptations highlight the timeless appeal of Shakespeare's themes of love and conflict.

How many Romeo and Juliet Movies are there?

IMdb lists 39 movies with the title "Romeo and Juliet". It lists 30 more which contain "Romeo and Juliet" in the title. This doesn't include films with other titles with a similar plot structure, like West Side Story. Of course, these 69 films include films of Prokofieff's ballet and Gounod's opera as well as romantic stories which have borrowed the names of the famous lovers but are basically totally new stories. Nevertheless, there are at least ten film versions which use Shakespeare's dialogue and are therefore closely based on his play. Some are filmed versions of theatrical performances (three I can think of).
