First Bollywood film in Blue ray technology

A movie in blue ray disc will hit the markets of India soon. Akshay Kumar, comic starrer Heyy Babyy will be the first Indian film to be made available in blue ray disc. It seems that the film's director Sajid Khan is a fan of blue ray discs it seems. Current DVD discs give a maximum of 9 GB memory whereas blue ray discs with dual layer gives a space of 50 GB. Also blue ray discs give a six time better quality of picture and sound than a DVD. But now the problem is how many people will upgrade their disc drive from DVD to Blue ray disc? You can get a good DVD player for over Rs 2000, a Blu Ray player could cost more than Rs 27000. For discs, original DVDs cost Rs 45 upwards; a Blu Ray disc can cost you around Rs 2500. Will the blue ray technology work in India???
