Yaadein - TIPS DVD

Thanks to Arsh for these shots and comparisons!

It's difficult to say, which version contains more picture. mostly, these are not exact same shots. Still, differences in pic composition is minor.

Shemaroo DVD is Pseudo-prog where (Film to NTSC), where as, Tips version is Field Averaged indicating 'Film to PAL to NTSC' transfer. Also, Shemaroo version was made with close cooperation of Subhash Ghai himself.

Obviously, Shemaroo is the choice.

Rana

Tips must be PAL because of the horrible jumpy motion
by extra PAL fields. Who sells the Shemaroo version?

Urbanlegend -- can the title of this thread be renamed to something like "Yaadein... - Alternate Versions -&- Shemaroo vs. TIPS DVD Shots"

-----------------

I remember watching Yadein... in theatre and it definitely had some moe scenes than the Shemaroo DVD (haven't seen the Tips DVD so do not know if both Shemaroo and Tips have the same exact print). The theatrical version is longer. Interestingly, they appear to have re-released the theatrical version too with some chopping and alternate scenes.

Recently, SET MAX, a TV channel aired Yaadein... and I caught it in bits and pieces. Even the TV version is longer than the DVD version---The most noticeable difference was a much longer climax with more longer speeches by Jackie and Hrithik.

-----------------

And now for alternate versions:

Shemaroo DVD has a shorter climax compared to the TV version (and theatrical version) -- BUT -- has an alternate take on one of Hrithik's dialogues: In the DVD, he bursts out in English---"We hate this... We refuse to blah blah... We want only love..." --while on TV and theatres-- this entire sequence is in Hindi... "Hum nafrat kartey hai... nahi chaihiye yeh kitaab blah blah..."

----------------

The Shemaroo DVD is cropped while on TV they showed a bigger AR.

I remember watching this movie in cinemas and then watching the movie on DVD. Both Shemaroo and Tips DVD's have the exact same cut of the film, I haven't seen a cut of the film on DVD as it was in the cinema.

* A portion of the Jab Dil Mile track is missing whereby Hrithik and Kareena are 'floating through space'

* The sequence where Sania's husband comes to the farm house to collect her was never in the theatrical cut and added to the DVD cut

* A scene between the shot of Kareena running out of her hospital room and running past Hrithik (he then grabs her hand) was cut. The scene itself showed Hrithik riding on a bike backwards through the hospital grounds as Kareena looks on over a balcony

Most these cuts were made, I would imagine, because they looked plain embarassing. E.G. When Hrithik is riding backwards, it was shot in forward motion and reversed to make it appear he was riding backwards but looked horrendous on screen.

i also so the sony max which was the same as the cinema version, but i remember a week or 2 after the movie came in cinemas, avs had an interview with subash ghai that he told the cinemas to cut those things because other people in the industry said those scene do not need to be there and that they were just ridiculous

This link may or may not work depending on your geographical location.

Is this Shemaroo or EROS?
