The Dev D dvd is rumored to be out in April, and is also supposed to include an extensive "The Making of" piece- cant wait, but wish I knew a definitive date- please clue me in if you are aware!
Aside from that, I am seriously suffering from lack of Abhay news- maybe I can just go rewatch all his movies again- yeah, sounds like a plan.
Unrelated, but interesting: Anil may be appearing in 24- I normally dont watch that show, but if he is playing, I am watching, I am watching.

Oooh, Anil on 24??? I really hope that happens, I'd love to see him!
I read sumwhere that DVD is available on Netflix.
But, yeah, cant wait its release in India. I think it will feature two songs that were not there in movie. [and some adult rated stuff :-D ]
Ajnabi: Yeah- he'd be so cute!
Darshit: But I dont think they are selling it on Netflix- I wanna buy! The Netflix version is also odd- the online description sounds like that of the original Devdas. I'd like to know if someone has actually bought the DVD, 'cos there seems to be only pirated stuff floating around- ugh, so frustrated! :)
Rewatch. Rewatch. Rewatch!
Yeah, rewatch Abhay movies!
That's what you have to do when you're missing someone....
Or nothing else is interesting. :)
Just thought I'll share this...

About the Panel Discussion:
The panel will explore the new visual vocabulary that transforms words like home, diaspora, sexuality, sex, migration, AIDS, disease into images that reveal and provoke newer ways of seeing and understanding. The discussion will also look at how the intimate and personal become political. We live in a visual culture. Images shape our desires, the way we think and the manner in which we connect and interact with the world around us. These images come flying at us in commercials, photo exhibitions, music videos, mainstream film and in Internet spam. Sensuality and sexuality is inherent in these images, making it impossible to ignore the often overt and covert interpretations of the world of desire. Sex on film has been banned, censored, edited, and destroyed by those deeming the content to be obscene or immoral. The panel will trace the way sex and sexual imagery have historically and currently impacted film, television, advertising and more contemporary outlets like the internet while simultaneously creating the sex scandals (MMS in India), the flourishing recent porn industry and influencing popular art such as film, social standards, mores and behaviors.

Omg Nicki- brilliant find! I wish that I lived in NY, or at least (at least!) was a millionaire and could fly there at a whim- [sadness].
Folks who live out there- this sounds like a fun deal!
I just hope the DVD releases soon. Have been waiting to watch the movie so badly!
hey, some news. Aladin with Amitabh Bachchan and Sanjay Dutt is coming out in July! Yay!
Bhargav: You and me both Bhargav- I just need to see it again. and again. and again. :D
Stella: I have to admit im curious about Aladin, despite Sanjuy's current weirdness re: his sister. I can easily imagine Amitabh as the genie, but am enthu about Sanjay, who is probably the villain of the piece, and Reitesh appears perfectly cast- although Shahid would choice too...
