Well, on friday night we went for 12-3AM show of 'Chak De India', it was very much worth going there so late, and coming back home ard 3:30am, it was one of the impulsive plan, ard 10 after finishing dinner I asked wifey....'Chak De dekhni hai..', and immediately we left home only to find 11pm show sold-out, but we gladly settled for midnight show.
If you like sports-themed movie, if you like SRK (even after KANK), then this one is for you, marks the return of SRK, he gave solid restrained performance.
It was a interesting presentation of a predictable storyline, well like I always say people like two kinds of movies...one with which one can relate with, another which are out and out fantasy be it over-the-top action thriller or some unimaginable sci-fi types.
To me, this brought back the memories of school days, our school was among BEST in
Sometimes before some big tournament Indian team used to practice there, and watching them play in an empty stadium was so amazing, so unreal, all players were so approachable, forget media they never even required any security, no police nothing, and one can even go seat next to Pargat Singh or talk with Vivek Singh, Sujit Kumar, R.P Singh, Great Mohd. Shahid, Thoeiba Singh etc.
Hockey is a different world altogether.
It is heartening to see some director choosing this subject, and delivering it with perfection. Seems that after the success of Khosla ka Gosla, the stature of Jaideep Sahani has grown, and now he seems to have final word on his scripts.. not the director not the editor.
Best part about his writing is the language he uses, which is so refreshing, that sets the immediate connection, good to see people talking in normal-typical delhi-ki-language :-)
A welcome break from 'bambaiya-type' or 'heavy-duty' dialogues.
Now I’m so bored, don’t even want to think about Bourne Ultimatum.
And before I forget…., ex-girlfriend err...now wifey bought me this and I'm lovin it :-)
