Swades: Deleted Scenes
Here's presenting some deleted scenes from one of my favourite films- each a delight to watch, though some would have been really unnecessary, and hence have been deservedly deleted. Still, the absence of some truly sparkling scenes (Scene #2 is a must-see) does break my heart, even though the movie is pretty long as it is!DELETED SCENE #1 DELETED ... more...

Review: Singh is Kinng
