The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

A loose adaptation of Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, the story follows Anjali Chauhan Verma and Dev Chopra, who are in love with each other and plan to marry, but her family gets her married to Ram Verma. Years later, Dev Chopra shows up to reunite with Anjali Chauhan Verma; however, she has fallen for Ram Verma. The music was composed by Nadeem–Shravan. Delayed for almost four years for various reasons, Dhadkan finally released on August 11, 2000, coinciding with the Independence Day weekend.
