International has announced the long awaited
release of the huge family drama Baghban
on DVD and VHS. The film saw the comeback
of multi-talented producer Dr. BR Chopra
whose classic hits included 'Waqt', 'Naya
Daur' and 'Pati Patni Aur Woh'. The legendary
movie mogul founded B R films in 1955 and
is one of India's most respected filmmakers
of all time. Theatrically, Baghban has done
exceptionally well, being the third highest
grossing Bollywood film of the year and
taking nearly £750,000.
The
film stars Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan, who is reunited with
the BR Chopra after more than a decade, as well as Mahima Choudhury,
heart-throb Salman Khan and last but not least, the dream girl of
the 1970s, Hema Malini. Ravi Chopra - son of BR, directs it.
Fans
of the "Big B" and Malini are in for a treat, as both
stars light up the screen with their sizzling chemistry, which is
even more riveting than twenty years ago when they last appeared
together. The real life rapport between Amitabh and Salman is also
clearly evident, as they play father and son in the movie.
Aadesh
Shivastava is the music composer for the film and has produced an
impressive soundtrack. The music maestro has even managed to rope
in the Big B himself to sing his heart out on four songs- one of
them being 'Chali Chali'.
