The release of Bollywood superstar
Shah Rukh Khan's latest home production
'Chalte Chalte (As we walk) on Friday
left most of the cinegoers disappointed.
Directed by Aziz Mirza, the movie
stars Shah Rukh Khan, and Bollywood's
latest romance queen Rani Mukherjee.
The big star cast and sleek production
values at least managed to pull
a decent crowd in the 44 degrees
Celsius summer heat. But even then,
film buffs said the movie lacks
a storyline. "I didn't like the
storyline. It is very dragging.
It's not at all entertaining. Songs
are good, characters are also good,
but storyline is not good," said
Seema Sinha, a cinegoer.
'Chalte
Chalt' is a mushy "rich girl meets
poor boy tale", wherein after a
turbulent marriage the couple realises
that it's not love but monetary
logic that governs relationships.
But some said the film was worth
watching. "I think the movie was
good and SRK (Shahrukh Khan) and
Rani were ultimate stars. It's an
emotional love story and I think
everybody should go and watch it,
at least for once," said Divya Verma,
another movie goer.
Many
others said the film didn't turn
out the way they expected it to
be. "It's okay but not as good as
I expected it to be. Shah Rukh overacted,
and so did Rani (Mukherji). It was
funny. In the end it was funny,"
said Amit, another movie buff. Shah
Rukh's earlier home productions
'Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani' (The
heart is Indian) and 'Asoka' (King
Ashoka) failed to satisfy the audience
even though the movies recovered
their costs. Khan, who has invested
heavily in this Rs 200 million venture
is selling the film's rights much
below the market rate in India,
hoping to recover the costs in the
overseas or NRI segment.
