I am so excited. This is great news for me and my friends because we live in the middle of nowhere and our only acess to Bollywood is the internet. Yeah! :thumbs: :D

This is great news. Someone posted the schedule here a few weeks ago and I've been forwarding it around.

I'm going to try to get a lot of people to see RANGEELA. Of all of them, this has the most mainstream appeal. It is still my favorite.
