Getting Local ...

This one is for all my die-hard Bollywood fans. I recently discovered a small DVD rental store right behind our lane here, and of course, although I found no evidence of the existence of English as an option for any DVDs, I did come across something quite unusual.

Every conceivable SRK film, including non-famous ones like Army (with Sridevi where he had more like a glorified cameo), each with their own German title, poster and writeup. Except strangely, only all his goodie-boy roles were there ... none of his more 'acting' ventures - such as Baazigar or Darr or the ridiculous Anjaam. Strange. More pics.

Ha ha ... 2 Mal Shahrukh Khan! Couldn't agree more :-) except 'mal' in German means 'times' so ... 2 times SRK!

Super cool cover for Main Hoon Na ... or the infinitely easier to pronounce - Ich Bin Immer Fur Dich Da! which is German sort of translates to 'I Am Always For You' ... how far more romantic!

I would never have considered Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam being worthy of any effort other than that of lifting the cover of the trash can to throw it in - but the Germans obviously didnt think so! Das Muss Liebe Sein indeed, with a cover that suspiciously reminds me of Koi Mil Gaya.

This was a short one.

Cheers
