Yeah, but it's a pretty bad quality DVD nonetheless.
Are you referring to the old B/W Shemaroo Mughl-e-Azam DVD or the new Shemaroo DVD or the EROS DVD??
It'll be interesting to see how Shemaroo DVD turns out.
Potenetial for excellent DVD from Digital restored PC version is there but is Shemaroo competent to make use of that?? At least, their publicity department is not. Shemaroo is claiming 2.35:1 Aspect Ratio. WHY?? Prestigeous to claim rightly or wrongly 2.35:1??

Royal messenger delivers Mughal-e-Azam DVD
By IndiaFM News Bureau, June 27th 2005 - 1700 hrs IST
During the Mughal era the royal messages were sent through the kingdom's messengers in the form of 'shahi paigaam' i.e. a scroll of royal paper where the Emperor's message was inscribed. Even as Shemaroo releases the color version of Mughal-E-Azam DVDs and VCDs it adapts the same royal approach of the Mughal era in presenting the DVD and VCD.
Shemaroo sends a Royal Messenger with the regal splendor of the Mughal era to present the magnificent DVD of Mughal-E-Azam to a select few. The messenger dressed as a soldier from the Mughal era reads out a shahi paigaam in Urdu handing out the DVD. We at IndiaFM were one of the few privileged ones to receive a DVD from Shemaroo in such a regal way.
The Mughal-E-Azam DVD comes in a special collector's item twin CD pack. While the first DVD is on the film, the second comprises of additional bonus features like a Deleted song, Star Speak on the movie, Premiere of the film and a Behind the Scenes look.
