![Raanjhanaa Original Hindi Blu Ray with English Subtitles Fully Boxed [UK Import]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91iwB36C8pL.jpg)

First love in anyone’s life holds a special place especially if the memory is filled with the vibrant musings of the city that you grew up in. Benaras holds a special place in Kundans heart, because not only did he grow up as a typical, god fearing, shiv bhakt-Pandit but also because it was the city that gave him Zoya. Quiet, beautiful with mischievous eyes, Zoya was the girl of his dreams. He would follow her everyday to the bazaar, back to her house till one day he mustered the courage to speak to her and tell her his true feelings - his 13year old heart, smitten by her simplicity. She of course didn't takes him seriously and brushed him off. Time passed by and Zoya moved to Delhi to study further. Love they say is a feeling that only grows stronger with time and Kundan’s love for Zoya never diminished, he carried his feeling all through college and his heart flipped when Zoya came back to his town. With Zoya back in Benaras, Kundans world was filled with excitement as he was thinking of finally telling her how he felt. But she was in love with Akram, a college friend from DU and he was the love of her life and she wanted Kundan’s help in marrying him. He was torn between his true feelings for Zoya and his hearts pleas to help her get her true love because who could understand that pain better than him. He sets out to unite her with Akram and what follows is a tale of Love, betrayal, redemption and healing set against the very rooted town of Benaras and the upbeat political environs of Delhi. Ranjhana is the story of Kundan, his journey from a 13 year old boy in love who goes on to become a committed, spirited young man, who’s experiences in life made him the person he is today. It’s the STORY OF LOVE!! Review: Good Story - Watched this movie on an airline flight. Liked it so much I decided to buy the DVD to share with my wife. Good dance sequences and storyline. Acting is good and now I am open to watching other Bollywood movies. Arrived quickly, even though I used free normal shipping. Review: An Indian Love Story - What is a Bollywood film without a love story? Raanjhanaa not only boasts one, but also intertwines the subculture, caste system, religion, politics of India into one colorful film. As someone who has come to appreciate Hollywood, I had to realize that this movie is made for Indians and not compare it with other western movies under the same light. So long I have waited for a movie, for an Indian movie to come close to reality, an Indian reality... as opposed to the upper class fantastical type Indian movies. This one sure does come close as one can without sacrificing the appeal of Indian cinema. I can understand its success as associations can be made between this movie and reality for Indians. Glad to own my first Bollywood film. A. R. Rahman does a fantastic job in first two tracks: "Tum Tak" and "Raanjhanaa" but rest of the tracks felt very mediocre, especially coming from such an acclaimed producer. Blu-ray boasts high definition and HD audio but there are no special features. The blu-ray I recieved was for all regions.

An Indian Love Story

An Anti-Love Story with some absolutely beautiful songs.
A visually beautiful movie. What seems to start off as a predictable love story takes off on a dark trajectory involving religion and politics. The songs (by A.R. Rahman) are beautiful and are also atypically placed as supporting the scenes as opposed to having the characters singing them. The young stars do a wonderful job.

Great music, odd ending
I was excited to finally see this movie, since I'd been listening to the soundtrack for some time. The story itself was great until about 45 minutes from the end, & the ending itself was such a huge disappointment. I'll probably watch it again, just for the music, but for me this was like Romeo and Juliet gone wrong.

Great movie!!
This is a really great movie!! I would definitely recommend this one. It came to us very quickly, sooner than expected.

Too Depressing
I'm not a fan of dying/suicide because of unrequited love. Death is easy & weak...living takes courage & strength! Besides, I never liked either of the main characters throughout the entire movie, so didn't care what happened to them. This is probably the only Bollywood movie I won't be re-watching or keeping!

A well crafted story with awesome stars.. Abhay Deol is growing an enormous different genre artist and his role in this film will make you a new fan of Mr.Lucky (as he was called in oye lucky ! lucky oye). Dhanush proved to b a great actor..his role.. his accent .. and his presentation.. is awesome.. and last but not the least.. Sonam Kapoor.. an almost negative protagonist.. will make you feel how her importance was their through out.. an overall good rated movie.. A.R.Rahaman is as usual awesome... and Benaras is superb...

What's with these films that's keep making me bawling me eyes out yet again. Just when I was so excited to see a happy ending but boy that young Kundan died, wanted to give Zoya a finger wagging telling off grrh! But I enjoyed the film as it really pulled your heart the emotions that came out that you really felt for them, despite the culture differences, it's not about looks, it's the inner person of the heart. Great film in total and I recommend watching it again and again, Kundan a cutie pie, who just needed a good old cuddle. Great performances from all in the film. But it's really heart breaking.

Belle histoire d'amour avec un retournement surprenant... A vous de découvrir ce film...! Le tout, magistralement interprété par Danush (grand acteur tamoul). C'est son premier film hindi. Je vous conseille certains de ses films : "3", "Mayakkam Enna", "Kaadhal Kondein", "Maryan"...

A movie that seems real and true, Anand Rai has made a very realistic movie from the setting to the dialogues. The movie is if you had not read the reviews is about this boy, played by Dhanush obsessed, infatuated and presumably in love with Zoya, played by Sonam Kapoor and the consequences of his actions due to his feelings for the girl. It's a very simple love story with enough twist to keep you engrossed, also the fact that you completely understand the hopelessness of Dhanush character and grows to love him makes this movie His, but I think to overlook Sonam Kapoor would be a huge mistake because her character Zoya goes through this arc of journey, and she has commendably acted enormously well. Its easy not to like the girl because we are shown in Bollywood movies that wooing a girl requires consistency and to following her around and then helping her and if that doesn't work to attempt suicide, but to consistently bring that level of vulnerability to her character and yet be true to herself that she does not love Dhanush character is kind of path-breaking, in fact after I watched the movie I was thinking I would have been disappointed had Zoya conceded and fell in love with Dhanush. That in itself makes it different. All other supporting cast are also so well casted and enormously talented, but the icing in the cake are the dialogues, I love the dialogues of this movie. A.R Rahman also helps in capturing the essence of the movie. See the movie for Dhanush's talent, Sonam's understated acting and the most refreshing dialogues heard in a long time. Highly Recommended.
