The 200-minute DVD contains some bonus features such as interviews with Yash Chopra, Javed Akhtar, Ramesh Sippy, Ravi Chopra and Karan Johar.

The DVD gives you the option of watching some of the memorable moments of the movie, melodious songs, the scenes deleted at the editing table, and interviews. A booklet provides valuable information on the movie that became a rage in its time. A must buy for lovers of good cinema.

The film was a bit of a tear-jerker but Hrishida had earlier given us such wonderful movies such as Anari, Asli Naqli, Anupama and Anuradha.

Now Shemaroo Entertainment has brought out a Shraddanjali VCD album in honour of the man, known and respected for his clean family entertainers. His films were such that all family members could sit and watch in the drawing room without feeling embarrassed.

The VCD contains a dozen songs selected from his hit films. Aptly it begins with that immortal song of Lata Mangeshkar ‘Woh Chand Khila’ from Anari.

Some of the other offerings include Lata’s ‘Dheere Dheere Machal’ from Anupama, Manna Dey’s ‘Zindagi Kaisi Hai Paheli’ from Anand, ‘Ab Ke Sajan Saawan’ from Chupke Chupke and ‘Bole Re Papihara’ from Guddi (the Vasant Desai composed song that catapulted Vani Jayaram to fame).

Shemaroo has done well to include the Rafi-Lata duet, ‘Tujhe Jeevan Ki Dor Se’ from Asli Naqli (a runaway hit starring Dev Anand and Sadhna) and Kishoreda’s beautiful ‘Raat Kali Ek Khwab’ from Buddha Mil Gaya. The VCD revives sweet memories of the days gone by. And at Rs. 45, it is a steal.
