Moovieshoovie.com makes it easier to find the movies you love

Online, May 25, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Moovieshoovie is a website that aims to bring the best of Indian cinema to audiences worldwide. While on one hand MoovieShoovie serves cinephiles across the world, on the other hand it celebrates India's talented film-makers by making their content available to a worldwide audience. Its aim is to build the world's largest community and marketplace around Indian films.

MoovieShoovie started off as an online streaming service and are now adding another feather to the cap by launching online sale of DVDs which will cater both to local Indian film buffs as well as to the Indian diaspora worldwide . Featured cinema will include Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada titles, with more languages to come soon.

Speaking on this, Jyotsna Pattabiraman, CEO, Moovieshoovie said "With content of all kinds overwhelming us in a veritable digital tsunami, it is increasingly hard for people who love great cinema to find it; and for people who create great cinema to make their voices heard. In this world of frenetic marketing, one tends to forget that there are literally thousands of wonderful Indian films that have been forgotten or never really found the audience they deserved. Chain stores do not stock them and of course, cinemas do not play them any more".

"MoovieShoovie is gaining traffic from 61 countries , from Oman to Finland to Malta, and seeing audience interest in different types of content. We will therefore be expanding our ambit to include regional movies, serials and documentaries, served through different physical and digital formats .Our new DVD shipping service marks a big step forward for folks who love great Indian cinema but can't get their hands on the titles that they want" said Ms. Pattabiraman.

Alka Gupta, a resident of the San Francisco Bay Area and a successful new media executive says "As someone who lives in the US and who loves Bollywood, I am excited about having instant access to the greats of Indian cinema. MoovieShoovie makes buying and watching Indian movies a simple, enjoyable experience with its excellent selection of movies, worldwide accessibility and well-designed interface. And as someone who has been on the boards of several startups, I can see that MoovieShoovie can make a huge difference both to Indian cinema and its overseas audience. Kudos to MoovieShoovie, I look forward to big things from them", says Alka

Colorado resident Aparna Natrajan agrees, saying of a classic movie she watched recently via MoovieShoovie "It was a great trip down memory lane and I don't think I could have found it anywhere except on MoovieShoovie".

Hari Ravikumar, a devoted fan of Hrishikesh Mukherjee and an active member of the MoovieShoovie community, says "It's a warm Saturday afternoon and I'm sitting in front of my laptop hoping to finish off some pending work. If I need to take a quick break, and have a yen for watching a Hrishida movie, what do I do ? I don't want to leave my desk and I don't know any DVD stores nearby anyway. If I've to watch it on YouTube, I'll need to dissect the movie into 16 parts. So what do I do? MoovieShoovie. A couple of minutes, a dollar and fifty cents, and prelude music begins to play".

Echoing their words, noted actor and writer Raj Singh Chaudry, who worked with Anurag Kashyap on films like Gulaal and Black Friday says " As a writer and actor, I often wish that my work had a broader audience. It's good to know that a platform like MoovieShoovie can make my films available to the world. I wish them all the best."
