Saawariya

 (2007)

Drama | Musical | Romance



Raj, a free spirited artist, idealist and dreamer, is convinced that he has found his ultimate fantasy when he arrives in a quaint picturesque town. Surrounded by mountains, shrouded in mist and enveloped in beauty, it is mythical enough to be a painter's vision or a poet's memory. One bright, starry night, he spots a mysterious girl draped in black, standing alone at a bridge. This chance encounter brings his first meeting with the intriguing Sakina, a shy, melancholic and enigmatic young woman. What begins as a friendship soon becomes a passionate quest as Raj pours all his youthful spirit and charm into an attempt to win Sakina's heart. But Raj is haunted by her troubled past and their friendship gradually pulls him into a romantic whirlwind of madness and desire.

Saawariya Blu-ray, Video Quality

  n/a


Saawariya dances onto Blu-ray and boldly proclaims itself as one of the finest video presentations available on the format. Presented in 1080p high definition and framed at 2.40:1, the image is positively breathtaking; from the first frames you'll be mesmerized at the sheer brilliance of the transfer, from the wide array of colors to the natural flesh tones to the incredible black levels -- it all adds up to a transfer rivaled only by I, Robot, in my opinion, in terms of level of perfection. So, what makes this image so good? Everything. The movie is almost always bathed in a blue glow, but that doesn't stop colors from being rich and lush, or blacks from being inky and pure. Said blacks hold steadfast and retain a masterful level of brilliance seen only in a handful of discs (see I, Robot or I Am Legend), and this one might even beat those. Colors are fantastically rich and stunningly beautiful, bright, vivd, and dynamic without being too hot or blown out of proportion, like those seen in High School Musical 2. Here, colors are absolutely natural and pristine, vibrant without appearing phony. Detail is breathtaking, perhaps the finest yet. Take simple things like a stone paved bridge. A close-up shot reveals every single line, crack, chip, and texture to be seen on it, and it makes you believe you could touch it; the image so pristine and thoroughly detailed that you instantly know how each stone would feel to the touch. Detail on humans is incredible as well; the viewer can easily make out the individual grains of facial hair on Raj's face. Really, there is no point in going on; the longer I rave about the disc, the longer it'll take you to go see it. Nothing but your own eyes and a properly calibrated display can adequately convey how rich and lifelike this transfer is. Simply put, this disc is as good or better than any other Blu-ray I've seen, bar none. If you are looking for a strictly reference quality disc, this one is it (so far).


Saawariya Blu-ray, Audio Quality

  Array of 5


Remember the scene in Back to the Future where the judge tells Marty that he and is band are "just too darn loud?" That's the only problem on this otherwise impressive Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless surround sound mix. It is so loud at reference volume that I had to turn it down quite a bit so as to safeguard my hearing. Once properly adjusted, this soundtrack simply provides over two hours of sonic wonderment. Even basic dialogue has a wonderfully natural reverberation. Bass is deep and true in every scene that calls for it; very powerful and rumbling, but never so much as to cause the viewer to become overly aware of its presence, just adding the right amount of power and realistic atmosphere to the film. The soundstage is used to perfection, as every single sound seems impeccably placed in every channel; nothing sounds artificial or forced, again the only drawback being that this seems awfully loud in comparison to every other Blu-ray I've reviewed. If I had to choose one disc that perhaps bests simulates real life, this one would be it. Sure, it's not really "real life" to have people singing and dancing about their love life, sometimes alone and sometimes with full accompaniment in bright, beautiful costume, but if they did, I am convinced it would sound just like this. Saawariya's Dolby TrueHD 5.1 mix, despite the score of 4.5 for being perhaps to aggressively loud, is definitely a reference-quality track.
