SHEMAROO ENTERTAINMENT LAUNCHES HOME
VIDEO OF
THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED BLOCKBUSTER
FILM
“BHAAG MILKHA BHAAG” AT RELIANCE
DIGITAL XPRESS (PRABHADEVI, DADAR WEST)
Shemaroo Entertainment Ltd,
an established Filmed Entertainment “Content House” in the country
launches the much awaited Viacom 18 Motion Picture’s
title “Bhaag Milkha Bhaag” on
Home Video at Reliance Digital Xpress, Prabhadevi. The film is not only critically
acclaimed but has cast its spell at the box office as well. The occasion
was graced by the talented actor Farhan Akhtar, beautiful Sonam Kapoor, director
of the film, Rakeysh OmPrakash Mehra, Hiren Gada, Director, Shemaroo Entertainment
and Ajit Andhare, COO, Viacom 18 Motion
Pictures.
Bhaag Milkha Bhaag is a true story of the "Flying Sikh" -
Milkha Singh, an Indian athlete who was a national champion runner and
an Olympian. The tale winds through the plagues of a bloody civil war,
a lost childhood, homelessness and petty crime to victories hard won
and easily lost. It draws the intricate image of human trails, setbacks
and fate leveraged, against the sheer power of will.
Hiren Gada, Director, Shemaroo Entertainment shared his thoughts,
“We are glad to release Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, on Home Video in association
with Viacom 18 Motion Picture &
Rakeysh OmPrakash Mehra Pictures. The life-history of Milkha
Singh portrayed on silver screen, infuses energy and enthusiasm to chase
your dream no matter what! Take home the original DVD of the movie today
as his story is worth sharing with our generation-next.”
Ajit Andhare,
COO, Viacom18 Motion Pictures says," With the kind of acclaim and goodwill Bhaag Milkha
Bhaag has generated, the Home Video is keenly awaited. We are happy
to partner with Shemaroo for this platform and are confident that this
is another step in building a landmark Indian franchise for VMP and
its partners"
The DVD and VCD of Bhaag Milkha Bhaag are economically priced at Rs 399/- and Rs 125/- only.
This Movie is also available on Blu-ray for Rs 799/- only.
