Last night I saw Part 2 of a 4 part Documentary series which I think is called India Reborn, Part 2 was titled India on the Move. Absolute Eye Opener.

Would have to be one of the BEST Docos I have seen on India. Can't wait for Parts 3 & 4.

Extremely Dissappointed I missed part 1.

Has anyone else seen this Doco ?

no, it's on at the same time as doctor who...

i think it might actually be six parts, and the ads look superb, but i'm afraid i can't resist the doc!

Can you tape it IWGB, It really is worth watching, Believe me, its fantastic.

The paper said it was 4 parts,  BUT I'd prefer 6 if their anything like part 2.

will try to remember to tape it. i'm fairly certain that the ad on sbs said six parts, but i've been known to be wrong.


very occasionally.

Says the DVD is coming out on 5th May '09.

I'll have to see if it's on any of the channels here.

This does look great; I hope it is shown over here someday.

Thanks Hyderabadi bhai for the link. There is a shot of Mumbai suburban railway train but Delhi metro rail is conspicuously not there.

Saw Part 3 last night which was Focused on the Bollywood scene and High Society Arranged marriages.

Eventhough I am not a Bollywood fan, it was still interesting viewing.

I watched The Story of India with Michael Wood, these past four weeks.  This also has to be one of the best documentaries I've seen on India.  Wood's enthusiasm was just so infectious, it was as if it was his country, and well proud of it he was too.

If this series was on dvd, I'd give my eye teeth for a copy, it was that enthralling.

[vandy]

Yes priya, I have heard  very good reports on Story of India.

I'll continue Trying to purchase the DVD of this Doco Hopefully this month.

Priya do you know if the Story of India is a BBC Production ?

I'm not sure if it was a BBC production, but it was shown on the BBC Knowledge channel, if that's of any help.

Absolutely brilliant!
