0:18 I know it is shah rukh’s first film but can we not celebrate the film for the other cast and crew of that film and for what it was. He was there for barely 3 scenes.

Sholay...all the way...in original 70mm stereophonic sound ...will be absolutely amazing ❤ And not those cheesy remake effed up prints of destroyed music and nonsensical 3D animation

@sucharita Please remove the Wrong poster of Maya mriga you inserted in the video , that one is a 1960 Bengali film starring Uttam Kumar , the one Shivendra was referring to is Maya Miriga, a 1984 oriya film by nirad mahapatra

Film preservation in india is so little. Salut to you.

[@TathagataMitraTom]

Please work on Goopy Gyne Bagha Byne by Satyajit Ray. It gets overlooked like crazy because the political messages are not overt. But it is one of the finest fantasy movies ever made. It needs to be restored and re-released. Sucharita, please tell him to get it done. I know I can trust you to relay this message. Wonderful stuff. Keep uploading.
