"Actor: Shah Rukh Khan"

• Mohabbatein | DVD | (21/04/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £21.99

  Mohabbatein ("Love Stories") is, as the title suggests, thoroughly concerned with love and romance; it's a hugely popular Bollywood blockbuster about three young men at an exclusive boarding school who fall in love with three local young women. Opposition comes from the head of the school (Amitabh Bachan) and support from the violin teacher, who introduces an element of Dead Poets Society into a story which references both Grease (1978) and West Side Story (1961). Actually this is Aditya Chopra's follow-up to Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), which also starred Shahrukh Khan. The rest of the featured players are almost all new, and inject a vitality into every scene so that even at three-and-a-half hours Mohabbatein rarely drags. The soundtrack sweeps all before it in the seven big production numbers, which add a Western pop-video gloss to the complex, exhilarating musical arrangements. Likewise the choreography fuses traditional Indian elements with contemporary Western dance, and while the men are handsome and charming, the girls are stunningly beautiful, breathtakingly sensual, and scantily clad in a thoroughly modern fashion. Mohabbatein is a colourful, humorous though haunting romantic drama, which even those unfamiliar with Indian cinema should find highly enjoyable. On the DVD: The feature is in Hindi with subtitle options for English, French, Spanish, Arabic and Malay. The Dolby Digital 5.1 sound is often atmospheric, though only really comes into its own in the dynamic musical numbers. The anamorphically enhanced presentation of the original 2.35:1 cinema image is NTSC; while colours are excellent and the detail level well above VHS there is a slight lack of sharpness compared to the best PAL transfers. The second disc contains 64 minutes of English language interviews, 11 TV trailers and an anamorphic theatrical trailer, a scored stills gallery, 18 minutes of deleted scenes, including one musical number, with optional English language director's commentary, plus a 44-minute "making-of" documentary. The attractive packaging puts all but the most lavish US releases to shame. --Gary S Dalkin

• Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham | DVD | (25/03/2002) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  The 2001 romantic Bollywood drama Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham ("Happiness and Tears") proved to be even more successful than Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, the highest-grossing Indian film of all time and one which was also directed by Karan Johar. Starring veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan and wife Jaya, this tells the story of an Indian family who live in palatial comfort but who are riven when the eldest, adopted son Rahul marries Anjali (Kajol) a feisty and attractive woman but whose "lower breeding" causes his father to disapprove of her. Breaking his mother's heart, Rahul moves to Britain with Anjali before younger brother Rohan tries to go after him and end 10 years of estrangement to reunite the family. Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham is packed with contemporary trappings and production values but is in every way a traditional and generic Hindi movie. Those new to Bollywood might be disconcerted by some of the fashion statements or the mixture of drawn-out, lachrymose melodrama and slightly overplayed comedy-romantic interplay between Rahul and Anjali. There are also some scenes around Leicester Square and Westminster that are almost insulting in their stereotyping of hot, swinging London. However, K3G--as it has become affectionately known--is a riot of joyful colour, music and choreography (an embarrassing version of "It's Raining Men" is an exception). This is not a crossover movie, perhaps but a sumptuous treat for Bollywood fans. On the DVD: an anamorphic widescreen presentation with impeccable definition. However there are no special features, apart from subtitles. --David Stubbs
