why is walmart evil? the offer you a service, and they are good at what they are doing. why bash someone that is succesful? :p

eros on the other hand, offer you a poor service, a total disservice to society.

Eros might have only scratched the surface when compared to the evil deeds of Wal-mart. The latter company has been very detrimental in eliminating many small businesses worldwide and is working towards earsing the face of a free-market economy. Though, this concept poses a contradiction in itself, and one wishes for a sake of a healthy competitive market, their would be some government intervention from preventing one singular company covering every corner of the market, eventually leading towards a monopoly.

i went 2 walmart today to see if they had heyy babyy on blu ray or not, unfortunately they didnt. Instead i picked up Partner and Omkara on dvd they were for $5.25 each, I also saw OSO there for about $15, heyy babyy and namaste london were like $7.75, they had a lot of titles, but they should actually advertise it in the indian newspaper or like on star plus/sony or something so people actually know that they have bollywood dvds now

Hi guys...here I am after long haites...It's been a while since I've posted on this site, I've been a member since 2003...and alot of things have happened in life and changed. But here we all are still loving Bollywood.

After Ali reset my email (thanks Ali) so I could keep my username, I went down memory lane visiting my post from 6 years ago, Kinda get one misty eyed...It got me thinking about how we all share a comman interest and how we all come here to forget our daily grinding and worries. Although I'm a member of a few forums like, Apple Mac (I'm major Fanboy), Photography, X5 World, Zulm always has had a special place in my heart. Here we allot more in comman than computers or cars, here we feel at home, we feel there are people like us out there who don't give the upperlip to bollywood movies, who embrace and celebrate them even though we are thousands of miles away and even though we may have grown up in this western cultures, we still see these movies reflect us in some way.

Well enough of the reminencing...Long Live Zulm!!

So back to why I'm posting today..

I know many may already know this but over Xmas I was shocked to see my local Wal-mart (Morningside and 401, Scaborough) carrying a respectful amount of BW DVDs, I knew they had CDs but not DVDs and not just that the price was quit awesome..and the titles were very good too. I picked up 2 recently, 1) was Omkara 2 DVD set (one of my favourites), and Paheli (with extrasl; Making and music launch) for $8.00 each. I'm contemplating picking up Dus Kahaniyan.

Now I'm not going into the quality and all of the DVD, I guess I'm older and wiser not go down that rocky road. I'm tired of even getting the pirates that suck now, and for movies that I know I'll watch over and over again, and are 5.1 and decent picture, a price like $8 is very reasonable, something I'm proad to support Wal-mart for.

I watch these while working out in my basement on the 50" and sometimes on the 110" Projecter. They had some Yash Raj titles like 2 DVD set Kal Ho Na Ho, but for $20, which is I think over priced for a film like that, since Omkara in my opinion is a better flick and I paid $8 for it, I think it should be $5. :) Funny some films were marked the right amount like they had Drona..for $8 too! also but reading the reviews I didn't pick it up.

Well just wanted to let you guys know to check your local Wal-mart and if they have it, than support it, so we don't see it going away and soon we may see even a bigger selection or a $4 Bollywood Bin :D

Hey there Veej .. Welcome back :)

Yeah Walmart have been selling them for a while .. we already have a topic on this and have merged your thread with it. Feel free to continue in here.

The DVDs are MUCH cheaper than the indian store selling them .. sometimes a difference of more than 50% :shock: Personally dont buy them anymore .. but whoever still does its good for them.
