...consider the plight of Bharat Shah, the producer who corralled megastars Shahrukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai and Madhuri Dixit for Devdas. Shah has more troubles than a screenwriter could dream up. First, the police claim he was one of Shakeel's long-distance phone chums. Then rival don Abu Salem boasted of his investment in Devdas. Shah was arrested in January 2001, accused of being a front man for the Mob, and was jailed for months before getting bail. Now he's caught between two sets of gangsters. That raises, as they say, loyalty issues; it's like playing the Bosnians...

...Bhansali's supersplendiferous Devdas, which opened last week in 33 U.S. theaters. Reportedly the priciest movie in Indian history, Devdas could be the most visually intoxicating film ever. Its pristine, gargantuan sets inebriate the eye, even as the plot--rich boy (Shahrukh Khan) loves poor girl (former Miss World Aishwarya Rai) and suffers magnificently for it--seems drunk on luscious masochism. The dialogue is ripe enough to provide song cues for nine fabulous dance numbers. But the fervid emotion and visual chic are what make the thing sing...

...most visually ravishing movie ever. Its gorgeous, gargantuan sets inebriate the eye, even as the plot (boy loves girl, boy loses girl, boy dies) seems drunk on luscious masochism. Khan, a total, tragic charmer in the title role, is bookended by two beauties (Madhuri Dixit and former Miss World Aishwarya Rai) with a sad wisdom to match their screen charisma. The dialogue is ripe enough to provide song cues for nine fabulous dance numbers. But the fervid emotion and visual chic are what make the thing sing. In just his third feature, Bhansali seems a young master of the medium...
