Just wanted to let people know that another adaptation of Romeo and Juliet, a very different adaptation since it's set in India, will be released mid-Novemeber.

It's called Ram-Leela and it's directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali (director of Devdas). Trailer with english subtitles: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQPfeinXxcA

Here is the promotional video of one of the film's songs (that I find superb): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLIQzxgFeNE

I personnally want to see both adaptations, but I'm much more interested and excited about Bhansali version since it will be a totally new take on the story (well, also because I love Bhansali and Deepika, the main actress). And visually, it will also be something very different.

What do you think?
