hyped garbage
Good concept, poorly executed.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
I was very disappointed with this film. Besides playing every Bollywood cliché to the hilt, this film was nothing more than a rehash of the Manirathnam quiet hit "Saathiya".Basic story - boy falls in love with girl, get married despite misgivings/objections from parents/coming from different backgrounds blah blah blah and then realising that life is not a bed of roses. Cracks appear, they get separated, but love conquers. They live happily ever after. Not really but I did not dwell on the open ending of the film - the whole film did not have an impact me.SRK denied that the film was a lift off Saathiya but the basic premise was the same - only thing is Manirathnam handled it much better and with greater sensitivity.Plus point is the music. I loved it.The SRK stalwarts were there - Rani Mukherjee, Johnny Lever, Satish Shah, Lillete Dubey. What a waste of JL, I cringed every time there was a scene with him.The 1976 Chalte Chalte was a classic. What a pity that in future when people mention CC, it's SRK's film that is being referred to.
This movie was really cool. Shahrukh, of course, gives a mindblowing performance. Rani was also great (but Aishwarya would have been better :-) ). The story was great. The first half deals with SRK running after Rani. He pulls it off with his great sense of humor. After "saat samundar paar" and winning the girl, the story twists around to divulge into the quarrels of a wife and husband. This portrays a very authentic look into a typical marriage. Songs are good. This movie is great fun!
A lot has been said about the story line and stuff. I will confine myself to a few comments only: 1. Audiences go to the cinema hall for entertainment and any film that could hold them for 3 hrs is bound to be a hit. The one which has moments that could grip you in between does average business and rest are flops. Chalte Chalte with its music, acting, frames, screen play is one such film that grips you during the three hours of viewing and has all the ingredients of being a hit. 2. Shahrukh Khan once again shows why he rules Bollywood. Taking a wafer-thin plot all on his own to convert it into an Ace speaks volumes about the actors class. Anybody anywhere in hindi/urdu speaking communities can correlate himself to his role. After larger than life roles (and that too hits), the actor has managed to come up with a light film in a style and has shown why he is distinct in the best actor hall of Indian cinema. 3. This film might be the turning point of Rani Mukherjee's career and Aishwaria Rai might consider unlucky losing this film. 4. Aziz Mirza deserves full marks for keeping the story simple and executing it with style. 5. "Prem Nagarya" number reminds one of the 80's Yash Chopra or early 90's Rakesh Roshan numbers and is refreshing. 6. Chalte Chalte once again proves the fact that if a film is made keeping in view what audience wants, it will be a hit. Else, how could a film with a repeated theme, usual story line could be a hit.
After hearing that this movie is similar to 'Saathiya' i never had much expectations from it...also the promos never helped! However, after watching it, i was quite pleased with the film. Especially after the boring movies that are coming out lately! It was a similar story to 'saathiya' but it was treated in a completely different way. I thought the husband-wife arguments were more realistic in this movie than saathiya. The story really flowed well and the scene where Shahrukh drops Rani off to her home in Greece is a classic. It is so romantic and emotional. Overall i think the performances were excellent. Shahrukh khan really stole the show and he proved with this movie why he is no.1 The film is really worth watching and i assure you that you will not be dissapointed.
