Thanks for this, Sridhar! I'll try to get the ones I mentioned below, and
see how I go. Maybe we should try to get a Bollywood re. 'Sherlock Holmes
and the Indian Maharaja' etc?

Dear Tim,

As regards the availability of these movies, I am alas unable to say
anything because I've never set foot outside my dear country! But as to the
names of the different movies that would be worth watching, I can give u a
big list. Now, I'm not much into the romantic kind of movies. I like
watching action and comedy. But even among the comedies, there are movies
like Angoor, Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro, Chashmebadoor, etc. which stand apart. So,
just let me know when u want to see more of those types and I'll send u a
list every now and then.

Dear Tim,
If you go into any store run by an Indian in London or anywhere in the UK,
I am sure you will be able to get all the movie videos you mentioned.
Although I haven't visited England, on my last visit to Germany, I went into
a video library run by a Pakistani in Hanover where I saw over 250
Hindi(what you call Bollywood) movie videos in stock.
I am sure that that will be the case in England too, specially in the
"Little Indias" like South Hall and Hounslow(sp?)
You may like the biggest Bollywood blockbuster of all time: SHOLAY(A kind
of Hindi "How the West was won") to your list.
Best of luck and regards,

Can anyone suggest where I can purchase videos of 'Bollywood' films?
After
reading the features on India in the latest New Statesman (January 30) I'm
keen to view some of the classical ones, for instance:



Mughal-e Azam,

Pakeezah,

Pyaasa, and

Dilwale dulhaniya le jayenge.



Is there anywhere in the UK I can order these?



Cheers!



Tim
