Bollywood is at last coming of age and becoming hitech. I am happy to see that the movie, Hattrick has been released in an online portal by the producer of the movie.

There is a press release about it at India PRwire:

Directed by Milan Luthria and produced by Ronnie Screwvala, ‘Hattrick’ features Nana Patekar, Paresh Rawal, Kunal Kapoor, Rimi Sen & Danny and is scheduled for worldwide release on March 16, 2007.
