India/Bollywood Best bollywood PQ BD?

To date, what is the best picture quality (and sound) blu ray release for a popular title?

Looking at buying a couple and would need english subtitles.

I'm pretty sure the reference out there is still Saawariya, released by Sony Pictures and reviewed on this site here.

I agree with the above poster on ghajini and sivaji, but i'd add kandhaswamy as well. Sawaraya was released by sony so i don't think that counts.

Thanks for the recommendations. Which ones of these would fall under the comedy category?

Completely agree with Sanjay here

Non Indian Video company:
1. Saawariya (Sony)
2. Jodhaa Akbar (Bodega. A Fantastic transfer. You should buy this to see how much detail can be seen on costumes and artwork and can appreciate how much particular Asutosh was with arts and costume)

Indian Video company (from what I have seen so far):
1. Heyy Babyy
2. Kabhi Kabhi (except some black crush it looked great on my 1080p PJ)

I just received Ghajini yesterday. Will watch this weekend.

Till date, i enjoyed, Kuruvi, Sivaji , Ghajini, Villu on Blu-ray. PQ is awesome although some of these movie is a total flop blockbuster (Villu to be exact).

Even if one can "fix the video settings", I think we should not be recommending to people that they buy inferior and defective products. The only way to get companies to deliver quality BDs, is to reject their defective & inferior quality BDs.

+1. It looks fabulous with the RGB conversion on my projector. A very clean transfer .

Completely agree . I hate to change my settings and I think we should have BDs correctly authored in the first place.
