Review of The Family Man (DVD)

Devdas DVD - AMAZING SETS, BEAUTIFUL COSTUMES AND A GREAT CAST

Advantages: good cast, great cinematography
Disadvantages: its a little too coey for the guys

...The love triangle of Paro, Devdas and Chandramukhi.

However it is she who ultimately sacrifices more than Paro as she devotes her life to serve and love Devdas. In my view this film definitely leaves the viewer entertained from start to finish ...
