Synopsis: Devdas is the story of a love beyond all else, even life. The saga of a man called Devdas who loved, loved and just loved. Devdas shared a magnetic childhood with his lovely playmate Paro where supreme love was felt before it was understood. When youth beckoned, the loved intensified. But, alas, a fateful moment of weakness on the part of Devdas created a permanent wall of separation between him and his beloved Paro. On one side of the wall was a heartbroken Paro who became the wife of another. And on the other, was a completely shattered Devdas. Unable to bear the agony of a life without Paro, Devdas made alcohol his constant companion. But that could not make him forget the piercing pain. Even the unflinching devotion of a beautiful courtesan Chandramukhi, did not ease the heartache of losing Paro. It was only when his eyes closed to a permanent sleep, did the pain begin to fade. But even before losing the light of life, all Devdas urged was to see his Paro just once, thus giving his love the greatest dignity. It was at Paro's doorstep that the doors of heaven opened for Devdas. He left behind a testimony of true love that was pure, chaste, undemanding...and thus immortal. Indeed, love was his life... love makes him live on.

"Bollywood to equal the best of Hollywood"
Written By: Robertson Barros
Bollywood films are hardly seen in Brazil's movie theaters - I remember only one movie, 'Lagaan', to be played in Brazil and just because it was nominated for Best foreign Film. Luckily my wife and I watched 'Devdas' in a special festival sponsored by the Indian Embasssy in Bras­lia and it was love at the first sight. 'Devdas' is a splendorous movie, from thrilling song&dance numbers to astonishing costumes and sceneries. But the true qualities of the movie are a touching love story and the great performances of big Indian stars such as Ashwarya Rai. If you have never watched a Bollywood movie, this is the best way to keep in touch with the production of a very peculiar and great movie industry.
"Terrific Movie, spoiled by poor quality DVD"
Written By: P. Baker
After waiting almost 2 years for Devdas to be available on Netflix (it's been in my queue labeled "Long Wait" for all of that time) I finally broke down and decided to buy it. I have purchased quite a number of DVDs online from a variety of different sellers (including Amazon), but this is the first one I've received with such poor quality. It looks like it could be a 10th generation DVD (copy of copy of copy...etc), and this bad quality really prevented me from enjoying and appreciating the film the way I should have. All of the subtle nuances of color and detail are lost as the frames shift - it looks like 3 out of 10 frames have been removed. The movie itself is interesting enough to want to watch again, but I'd want to buy a better quality disc before I watched again. Does anyone have a suggestion on where to find one? I suspect there are issues I'm not aware of, which is probably why Netflix doesn't have enough (or any?) copies to rent. I think the movie would be spectacular if the quality was improved.
"More traditional feel but incredible impact"
Written By: Lyn
This movie played havoc with my emotions. It is just heart wrenching at times and SRK is beyond exceptional. Ash is very good too (a little too good at playing the immature earlier version of her figure as she was irritating at that point but she grows the character up and really brings the emotion out). It is more traditional in its dances but is beautiful to look at and very poetic. It demands more of the viewer but definitely worth the journey unless you prefer light and frothy -which it isn't.
"Madhuri Dixit..Now I need to go watch all her movies"
Written By: Phoenix
The story is about flawed characters..None of the 3 protagonists had any redeeming values... OK..maybe the courtesan Chandramuki had some. If you are looking for an uplifting story...This is not it. Knock on another door. But then, the world is not all about redeeming characters.

Its a tragedy...but the path to their destruction was delightful to watch.

For me..the movie came alive when Chandramukhi (Madhuri Dixit) was on the screen. By Joe, what an impact she has... She was spectacular and mesmerizing. Her subtle grace ...never seen anything like it. I wish I knew how I can just extract just her portion in this movie and then play it in an endless loop. Including the dances she was in... I'll be a happy man.

I knew the story going in....and yet I enjoyed it.
"GREAT MOVIE. BEYOND TERRIBLE DVD QUALITY"
Written By: Michael Thomas Conley
This movie is a favorite of mine. I lost my previous copy and decided to order another from here. When i received the DVD from this company I come to discover the terrible quality of it. It is as if it is a pirated copy. Terrible video quality along with poor audio. I feel terrible for those who witness such a great film for the first time on such disappointing quality. Look somewhere else for this product. I have returned my copy and expect a refund myself.
