Gabbar Singh Blu-Ray Review

 

Gabbar Singh Blu-Ray, overall, has been a roller coaster ride. The video quality is inconsistent. The quality was great here and there. I have no complaints with the audio. The songs were great to watch on Blu-Ray, especially my favorite Pilla song. This Blu-Ray is brought to us by Sri Balaji Video.

Audio Quality:
The Blu-Ray disc has two audio tracks, DTS HD Master 5.1 and LPCM 5.1 48KHZ/16Bit. Both of them are fine and I have no qualms about it. The audio was a bit loud here and there but I guess that was intentional. The songs scored by Devi Sri Prasad are fantabulous! I would say Gabbar Singh's album is the best in 2012.

Video Quality:
This is a dual layered Blu-Ray disc (50GB) and one expects top notch quality since this movie is one of the biggest blockbusters and Sri Balaji Video company, I feel like, takes extra care when coming out with such movies. But, overall, SBV came out with a half-baked product. It was very inconsistent as a whole. Some shots were grainy, some were okay, some were excellent. And the colors have been tweaked a little (I know this since I watched this movie twice in the theaters here in New Jersey) but I can say most of the viewers wouldn't pay close attention to such things.

Others:
The cover is not the best; it was very ordinary. No special features or additions. SBV should start adding at least a making DVD with their Blu-Rays (especially Blockbuster movies) since, I feel like, it attracts more customers. The font used for description on back is still the same.

Recommendation:
Being a Pawan Kalyan fan, I expected a better Blu-Ray. Something on par with that of Magadheera's. So I was a little disappointed. Nevertheless, it is a decent buy since the movie has tremendous repeat value though the Blu-Ray is heftily priced. Go fot it if you loved GS!

Blu-Ray Price:
$24.99
