yes the dvd of Monsoon wedding will be relasing in the third week of May. However Film4 new strategy involves relasing a rental version at a slightly hiked price £25 a month before it hits retail stores..Expect this version to have no extras unlike the retail version which will include an audio commentary by Mira nair and Cast and crew interviews..

This is a definite release as it was on the order sheet for my english films...

Lagaan at retailer price is showing up at 17.99 which is surprising as retailers are meant to get these dvds a a few pound less than consumers

SplashDVD still have it for £14.99 delivered (most places in Europe).

Definite pre-orders for me on Monsoon Wedding and Salaam Bombay! Little more on the extras here;

brought the rental version of the dvd today which is a babrebone disc in comparison to the retail version.....

The picture is abslutely brilliant the colors are beautiful it made me watch the film again .....Man this is glorious quality.Million times better than Asoka

Im not sure if this will be the case for the retail version but all hindi dialogue on this dvd has english subtitles which cant be turned off ....The 5.1 is brilliant to

thats great news.... usually the retail versions are waaaay better than any rental version of the movie..!! So expect an excellent quality disc in the up coming weeks

The retail DVD has commentary from directory Mira Nair - but hope this isn’t the actual retail cover, looks more of an advert!
