Bollywood New Releases Available via Video-On-Demand

af_robot writes "There's an announcement of a secure, DivX video-on-demand service for first-run movies, but only for Bollywood movies. 'Each new Bollywood film is released on the public Internet a day before or on the same day of its theatrical release, through piracy on multiple illegal movie download web sites,' said Al Mason, CEO of Cinema on Web. 'Our partnership with DivXNetworks represents the future of entertainment on the Internet. Soon virtually all new major Bollywood and Hollywood movies, including entertainment will be distributed digitally with secure VOD solutions like the one created by DivXNetworks, simultaneously defeating piracy and generating additional revenue for film studios and producers.'"

One of the movies I saw involved an intricate dance number (which ones don't?!) that was taking place on top of a *moving train*! There was singing, dancing and merrymaking, all while the train was hurtling down the tracks and passing through the occasional tunnel (wink, wink). I was entranced! Does anyone know the name of that movie?
