That movie was an epic! I still wonder how the hell did a non-Indian act like Gandhiji so well! Shame I haven't got a blue-ray drive yet. I've seen this movie loads of times earlier (The ending is really abrupt thuogh).

Is this version in HD??? I don't reckon that's possible. I wonder what will the publishers do with the rest of the 24 GBs left off after the Blue-ray disc is burnt???

Blueray is unnecessary for this film...guess how many gonna watch in blue ray...
Donno the reason for the blueray release... may be INC wants to get the vote bank of techies or blueray fans or wat?...n why didnt they release earlier?

note:i am not against gandhi or gandhism n nor i a strong bjp supporter if atall u think...jus asked coz of simple doubt

Are they just promoting 'Blue Ray'? I mean since lot of people don't own Blue Ray so they must be just inspiring the people to buy it or something cause i don't see any valid reason behind the release of this movie on Blue Ray discs.

Every body is having different perception about Gandhi.

It was only Gandhi who is responsible for the Bhagat Singh assassination.

According to me Gandhi has not done anything Exception.
