Chak De India!

My Rating: *****..."Outstanding"
Starring: Shahrukh Khan

Writing about a movie after a long time, well, don’t know? What enforced me to do so? May be the plot, theme, direction or SRK. Hmmm…just watched Chak De India. What else I can say, if I would be in the jury to select for the Oscars, Chak De would be my first choice.

I don’t watch much of the SRK movies just because of his chocolate look, may be some hatred behind that or SRK himself. But for this movie I would really appreciate his approach, this is his third movie, which I liked after Baazigar and Darr and ofcourse it grabbed a place in my all time favorites.

It’s not only boosting Hockey but also trying to divert the fallacious, conservative and unilateral Indian mindset towards the gender equality, one of the major problem Government of India facing in the rural areas and in some of the urban areas too. You go to any of the north Indian village and you can easily identify what women facing there. The people say, “Ladki paraya dhan hai uski padhai ka kharcha kyun?”

Well, let’s get back to Chak De again, Wonderful charactersation, every actor was somewhere dissolved in the character. At a point I felt, like I am watching a hockey world cup final. The spirit SRK fueled in was amazing and the sentence, “hamari hockey mein chakke nahin hote” really forced me to say, “arrey zabardast”.

Well, the movie was released weeks back but I watched it just now and I think this is after almost a year am writing something on movies and “woh bhi SRK ki!:P”. And Shahrukh Bhai now I am desperately waiting for your OM Shanti Om. Well, what to say now? Just chill, do whatever you can do, believe in yourself, target your goal, turn around and Chak De India!
