OVERALL: R1
R1 Canadian release, for the DTS audio and the best selection of extras. Note that the R2 UK release includes an excusive short film "Master Sunny's Story" and the film's Theatrical Trailer.
A note on the English language version:
Director Mehta filmed two versions of the film simultaneously with the same cast and crew, shooting a scene in Hindi then re-doing it in English. The English version was never released theatrically. The English-language version runs approximately 2-3 minutes shorter than the Hindi version.
