MUMBAI: With Republic Day around the corner, spare a moment to think about the positive aspects of our motherland and acknowledge its superiority in several respects. Shemaroo Entertainment pays a befitting tribute to India with �Vande Mataram' song compilation DVD & VCD.

The songs in Vande Mataram have been carefully selected with lot of thought and effort. They represent the six decades of a Republic India, with a nationalistic perspective of people belonging to different strata of the Indian society 

We have a rustic Dilip Kumar singing �Yeh Desh Hai Veer Jawanon Ka' from �Naya Daur' or the fiery enthusiasm of college students from �Talaq'; the ever popular patriotic �Apni Azaadi Ko Hum' from �Leader'; �Mere Desh Premiyon' from �Desh Premee'; �Aye Mere Pyare Watan' from �Kabuliwala' and �Har Karam Apna Karenge' from �Karma' among others. All these tracks occupy their pride of place in this exclusive volume.

Apart from this, a simple villagers point of view finds representation in the evergreen �Jis Desh Mein Ganga Behti Hai'; while a salute to the guardians of our frontiers appear in the form of �Dekho Veer Jawanon Apne' from �Aakraman'.

Today Indians are settled in every nook and corner of the world and wherever they are; their roots are strong enough to bind them to the ethos and culture of their motherland. The patriotic feelings and desires of the increasing number of NRI's (Non-Resident Indians), towards their motherland find expression in the song �I Love My India' from �Pardes'. Also the track �O Yaaron Maaf Karna' from �Aa Ab Laut Chalen' is a tribute to the unity in diversity of Indians.

Besides the above mentioned tracks, there are other hit songs like �Bharat Humko Jaan Se Pyara Hai' from �Roja'; �Punjabi Gayenge Marathi Gayenge' from �Aakraman' and �Garjo Jai Jai Kar' from �Ek Krantiveer-Vasudev Balwant Phadke' which truly take the feeling of patriotism to an altogether different level.

In addition, this compilation has also got some amazing moments with the song �Meri Aawaz Suno' from �Naunihal', where the real footage of Nehru's funeral procession has been used and the film �Pukar', which has a rare screen appearance by Lata Mangeshkar singing �Ek Tu Hi Bharosa'.

It is certain that, this unique representation of songs in Vande Mataram are bound to evoke among audiences emotional, nationalistic and patriotic feelings 

Undoubtedly a must buy song compilation title; Vande Mataram DVDs and VCDs are economically priced at Rs. 99/- MRP and Rs. 45/- MRP respectively.
