SARKAR!

If you don't know who Ram Gopal Varma is, then you're missing out.

Bollywood's most innovative director, his gangster film COMPANY has been available on DVD with English subs for a few years and if you care about action movies, or movies at all, you should pick it up.

Now, his new film SARKAR is set for a July release date. It's an adaptation of THE GODFATHER with Bollywood's biggest icon, Amitabh Bachchan, playing the head of a criminal family and Amitabh's son, Abhishek Bachchan (who was out-of-control good in last year's YUVA, playing a disposable street thug), playing the Michael Corleone role. I'm sorry, but if you're not excited about this, you need to get yourself there. (By the way: Varma says that Abhishek did a better job onscreen than his dad. Oedipal Ouch!)
