'CHALTE CHALTE' WILL RELEASE ON JUNE 13TH

By Our Staff

In The News

'Chalte Chalte' reveals the enduring relationship that people have with dreams. Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla have come up with the second episode of their "dreamz unlimited". Another talented filmmaker has joined 'Chalte Chalte'. Aziz Mirza promises to do what Santosh Sivan could not - give that much needed hit so that the journey of Shah Rukh and Juhi Chawla can indeed enter a new phase.


Shah Rukh himself plays the lead role opposite Rani Mukherjee. The movie hopes to bring in a whack touch to the all too familiar romantic story. This is also the first foray of United Television Motion Pictures into feature films. The joint venture movie between Shah Rukh's film company and UTV Motion Pictures has cost almost Rs. 200 million. The film is due for release on June 13th. 'Chalte Chalte' is the beginning for UTV. It is financing two more Bollywood movies - 'Swadesh' and 'Lakshya'. While 'Swadesh' is a Rs 300 million written by Asutosh Gowarikar, 'Lakshya' is a big banner film having an impressive star cast comprising Amitabh Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan and Preity Zinta among others.

UTV is determined to ensure that these movies reach everywhere in the country. The promos of 'Chalte, Chalte' are already on air.

IndiaFM's Review of Chalte Chalte

Quote:
As producer, Shah Rukh Khan missed the bus in his first two productions. Will he get it right the third time, with CHALTE CHALTE? Yes, he does! Dreamz's & UTV's CHALTE CHALTE, directed by Aziz Mirza, is a feel-good film and though it has its share of loose ends, the outcome leaves you feeling thoroughly fulfilled...But, most importantly, the film has tremendous emotional appeal to make the family audience throng the theatres. At the box-office, CHALTE CHALTE has all it takes to emerge victorious. Highly recommended!

Rating:- * * * ½.


Adarsh gives another good review?!?! what's the world coming to???

Love is all you need, sang the Beatles in the swinging sixties.

Cut to 2003. Director Aziz Mirza begs to differ with his cinematic offering on matrimony and life thereafter with Chalte Chalte, starring Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji. Unfortunately, the tale is as hackneyed as they come.

Raj is the owner of the Raj Transport Company. Apart from getting in the driver's seat at the drop of a hat, he is also an ardent admirer of Sunny Deol's songs. Thanks to accidental coincidences -- we mean that literally -- he finds the lady of his dreams in Priya (Rani Mukerji), on a trip to the Maharashtra hill-station, Mahableshwar.

Shah Rukh hams and haws his way through the film -- biting his lip, crinkling his eyebrows -- it is oh-so-familiar. He is over the top, especially as the inebriated Raj who confronts the estranged wife.

Rani, looking like a million bucks, makes for an earnest and an endearing Priya. The rest of the cast's characterisations -- Johnny Lever's roadside drunk Nandu, Satish Shah's Gujarati Mannubhai or Bobby Darling, the ubiquitous gay character -- are too caricaturish for their own good. The humour is infuriatingly forced. And pointless.

After Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani and Asoka, producers Dreamz Unlimited hoped for redemption with this film. I do not see that happening. But with all the product placements they have -- from Castrol engine oil to Pepsi -- they have probably broken even already.

:baaa: :(

***TIME TO PACK UP for SRK!!??
