When are the DVDs going to be released for Royal Bengal Rahasya?

I don't think VCD/DVD will be out soon, as RBR still running successfully in most of the cinema halls.

Has interest in watching this movie got anything to do with a recent remark of a hindi movie director saying ZNMD is a ripoff off Fandango?

In the Name of the Father (1993) - IMDb

A bit more on this movie. I was told its a very good courtroom drama movie but the premise always felt repulsive to me.

Your opinion on it?

I enjoyed it thoroughly.....

^The list has Crank 2.

Cronos 6.5/10

Concept (from IMDB)

In 1535, an alchemist builds an extraordinary mechanism encapsulated into a small golden device. The invention, designed to convey eternal life to its owner, survives its maker until 1997, when it shows up with an antiques dealer. Fascinated with the strange device, Gris (Luppi) doesn't note that there's more than one person looking for it. The promise of eternal life has become an obsession for old and sick Mr. De la Guardia (Brook). He and his nephew (Perlman) will do anything to get the Chronos Invention.

Good performances but a bit confused storyline. The director was not sure what to make with the story or which way to take it.

Jewish Ritual Murders.

is it the name of the movie???

watched 'The Texas killing fields'...expectations were high but sadly...the end of the movie was abrupt...could have been much better. 6/10

 

[red dragon]

Yes!
Name of the movie like thing!!
What kind of movie are you looking for?
Graphicaly violent or understated violence with extremely twisted characters?

 

[ajayritik]

yes...after seeing the 1st 30secs trailor of fandango Shekhar Kapoor said ZNMD is out...& Dirty Picture got the award

^as per reports HE made other jury members see the movie then and there who also found striking similarities in some crucial scenes.

I thought it was Sanjay Gupta not Shekar Kapoor. He was the one who had raised this thing.

 

[rhitwick]

It IS Sanjay Gupta who protested not Shekhar Kapoor.

 

[GhorMaanas]

You should complete the trilogy.

ofcourse the trilogy's outstanding ! but i chose one which i saw the last randomly

ok guys, watch the sergio leone anthology. you wont regret

another recommendation from my side :

Two Brothers

*www.imdb.com/title/tt0338512/

A well-made movie.

Does anyone know about any movie/documentary made on the likes of sir jim corbett/kenneth anderson, etc. ? if yes, kindly share the names with us. would be glad to know.

Red Dog 6.5/10
