Delhi-6

Writer and director Rakesh Omprakash Mehra's follow up to his smashing "Rang De Basanti" comes short story wise but has the same vibrant energy and visual power along with another great score by the amazing A.R. Rahman that makes this Bollywood feature stand out among the rest. The story about an Indian-American man who takes his dying grand mother back to India where he falls in love with the country and its people. The city of Dehli outshines the all star cast that includes the legends Waheeda Rehman, Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor lending support to the younger generation including Abhishek Bachchan and newcomer Sonam Kapoor along with other familiar faces of Indian cinema with roles they have mastered previously. The timing of the film makes it a notable valentine to India and its people after the smashing global success of "Slumdog Millionaire." YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
