Sheemaroo brings B.R. Chopra’s much-acclaimed, superhit movie Baghban (DVD; Rs 349), directed by Ravi Chopra, for the home viewing audience. After a long long time the handsome pair of Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini was seen together in this film and the audience simply couldn’t take their eyes off them. Hema had never looked so elegant and Amitabh so dignified. The pair was honoured the ‘Jodi No. 1’ by Screen. This pair proved that onscreen chemistry is not just sizzle and sex, but a lot more than that. The theme being the relationship between parents and their children, the film Baghban is a perfect mix of both entertainment and education. The highlight of the movie is, however, the songs and the end-speech that Amitabh Bachchan has given voice to. But the highlight of the DVD produced by Shemaroo lies in the extras that it has packed in. It has the making of Baghban with comments from Ravi Chopra, Amitabh and Hema. Plus there is a ‘Blast from the past’ ? the superhit song starring Amitabh and Hema, Dilbar mere kab tak mujhe. The DVD also includes some of Amitabh’s all-time hit scenes and has been awarded the Disc Tech Awards 2005 and creation for telecine and authoring excellence.

One more high-voltage starcast brought to you by Shemaroo ? Mani Shankar’s Tango Charlie (DVD; Rs 349) has an ensemble cast ? right from Ajay Devgan to Bobby Deol, Suniel Shetty to Sunjay Dutt. The heroes in uniform are out there to fight the terrorists who threaten the peace of the country. But these heroes are human, too. Nandana Sen and Tanishaa form the female interest in the movie while it is Kelly Dorji’s debut film and he surprises with his bad-guy role. As is expected from a Mani Shankar film, Tango Charlie has all the gadgetry to please. The DVD also includes a special Kuchh Meetha Ho Jaye showcase which includes the theatrical and TV promos of KMHJ.

This one’s the debut venture of the journalist-turned-filmmaker Samar Khan. Shemaroo brings this laugh riot Kuchh Meetha Ho Jaye (DVD; Rs 349) starring Arshad Warsi and Mahima Chaudhary. Arshad, after Munna Bhai MBBS has gone from strength to strength and is good fun to watch. Mahima is back in a new avataar. One more Mahima, Mehta this one, debuts in this film opposite another newcomer Sravan Chabria, and they make a cute pair. A fictitious airport where 40 odd passengers get stranded when their plane is delayed. The characters have to put up with one another and the fun begins. Shah Rukh Khan puts in a rare cameo in Kuchh Meetha Ho Jaye. The DVD also includes the making of KMHJ, special moments from the audio launc, a specially shot music video featuring Mahima and Arshad, a different version of the song Bhool jayenge hum featuring Shravan and Mahima Mehta and a free instrumental audio CD of KMHJ.
