EXCLUSIVE REVIEW BY HANUMANT BHANSALI
Before you read my complete review, I present a set of questions before you. The answers are there for you to see but get the answers yourself after watching the movie.
Q.Is Chak De India a good movie?
A: It is one of the best movies made in the last decade or so.
Q.Is Chak De..a masala entertainer?
A.It is a complete entertainer.
Q.Any love angle in the film?
A. Yes, there is love for one’s country, its pride, its honour and, hockey of course.
Q.What is Chak De India all about?
A. Chak De India is all about playing for your dignity and respect.
India celebrates 60 years of glory, courage and freedom with the release of Chak De India. The wait is over for the first movie on the game of hockey to release. Yes, Chak De India, directed by Shimit Amin is a sure shot winner at the box office. King Khan leaves you mesmerized with a gala cinematic experience. The film is fused with the elements of slick storyline, energetic performances and great field emotions.
Chak De India deserves to be a hit in true aspects of technical proficiency. The film presents an exciting perspective on a simple plot, with a dose of laughs and shudders. For me, Chak De India stands out from the rest so far this year.
The plot of Chak De… begins with the final match between the two nations India and Pakistan. A lost penalty goal by India’s caption Kabir Khan (Shah Rukh Khan) costs the result of the match in the oppositions favour. He is suspected of conspiring with the Pakistani team.
Termed as a traitor (Gaddaar), it takes seven long years for Kabir to wash the stains of humility by becoming the coach of Indian Women hockey team. The task ahead of Kabir is to prepare a team for the upcoming Hockey World Cup in Austrailia. In the end, its Kabir and hockey who emerge as the true winners.

shah rukh khan is the best, he really did very very well in the movie chak de india,great acting that gives you the best inspiration,direction is great,the feelings of patriotism touches you, chak de india is an excelent movie,a great perfomance by shah rukh khan, the 16 girls did very well too,the movie is a bit different from other movies,its a kind of new experience for the director and yash raj films banner , hope it will be a hit or else such a great work will go waste.best of luck for srk
The movie sucks
The movie as the story theme is completely a “TEAM WORK”.SRk cant be given all the credit.
Big round of applause to Shimit Amin n his technical team.

GR8888 REVIEW CHAKDEINDIA CHAKDESRK
IN ONE VOICE SAY CHAKDE CHAKDE CHAKDE
To be honest, I went to see the movie just because of SRK. I’ve gotten more than expected. The movie was superb. It took guts by all involved to make this film. It shows that we don’t need all those extravagant costumes, sexy dance numbers and half naked girls to make a movie a hit. Hats off to the complete team and a special hats of TO THE KING OF BOLLYWOOD! CHAk DE!
Hi Hanu,

Keep rocking man..
Dipesh
[...] Hanumant Bhansali, Radio Sargam Rating: Thumbs up …The film is fused with the elements of slick storyline, energetic performances and great field emotions…. See full review [...]
First of all what the hell is SRK and SRk.. Who the hell is he… does he have 4 legs and 4 hands. A over rated actor and that all. There are Zillion out there who can act and as well as look better than SRK.Fact SRK entry in the Film line was critical.A period when there was not too many new comers and he got a silly break. Big deal.Take the scence of Movie Deewana and the current movie clip you see that how much This idiot person has done with his face. HE JOKES PATHETICALLY DURING CONCERTS AND DISRESPECT PEOPLE WHO PRAISE THEM. As far as the movie is concern the movie is a totally copy of all Hollywood flicks eg goal and so on. We as indians HAVE TO BE ORIGINAL IN OUR WORK AND MAKE THINGS THE WAY IT SHOULD BE MADE AND DON’T GET INFLUENCE BY SO CALLED WESTERN WAYS. IT SORRY TO SEE THAT NONE OF ANY HINDI MOVIES ARE ORIGINAL MADE.YOU NAME IT AND FIND THE COPY OF SCENCE BY SCENCE FROM ANY HOLLYWOOD MOVIE. EG. HEYBABY(2207) A TOTAL RIPP OFF BABY’S DAY OUT. I FEEL SORRY FOR ALL THESE DIRECTORS. MAY THEY GET TOAST IN HELL FOR JUST SERVING THE SAME OLD DISH WITH DIFFERENT NAME. TRUTH AND NOTHING MORE PREVAILS. DISCALIMER: ANY COMMENTS COULD CONVEYED AT NUMBER 1-800-SRK-SUCKS.
an excellent movie with superb performance by srk and others.
LOL…for Truth’s very stingy comments… well,im also a big fan of SRK…whatver Truth said against his looks n acting,,,i think all those things make SRK stand out…he is not good lookin…but yet,,pepl find him charmin…he is not a great actor…yet,,,he has the biggest fan follwoin all over the world…Truth thinks hes disrespectful,,,yet we think he is the wittiest actor that bollywood has ever had..
well there must be somethin xtra ordinary about this ordinary man which makes billions of pepl go crazy for him,mm…sometimes i really wonder y he is so popular and bein loved so much…
anyhow,,,Truth!!! you have got the freedom to hate him:) n we have the right to do the opposite:) neva mind:)
one last thingy…this movie is based on a true story of an indian hockey player…i think its very orignl..n its much better than desi-masala-flicks, with so many item songs(never forget the hindi cum english lyrics:p)
the movie is good yar…just replace SRK with ur favrit hero..mmm lets say amir or hrithik(or whoever u like better:) )…n then check it out:) its amazin n very desi,,,i must say, a wonderful gift on independence day:)
Enjoy it…its different..n fitttt:)
Tata:)
Hi ALL
Belated Happy Independence Day,
When it comes to talk on SRK…..then have pause and don’t use Mind only use Mind think and then Speak…
He’s just Crushing,Talented,Higly Profiled,Simplified no words to Describe him…
Also the Film in itself is HIGHLY ENERGETIC,QUALITY OF MUSIC,LYRICS and WEKK EDITED,,,,More than that a BEST DIRECTION….
When Highly Professional/Perfectionists meet at a platform
then a Film like
C H A K D E I N D I A
can be seen..
It takes an ERA to give such Quality but for us it take few mintues to COMMENT so think and then speak out…
irrespective of ur LIKES or DISLIKES…
and Just feel that INDIANS should also bee doing
CHAKDE INDIA………
yeah that true just follow others like blind and be like brainless people. We should think before talking about so called A PROFESSIONAL/PERFECTIONISTS. Who have set those standards..uh let me guess a another dog of SRK. COme on puchi puchi-poo let me kick you in ur balls (if you have any) ha ha what a joke. In today era bollywood has no actors who deserved to be respected. Shahrukh khan a wimp a losser and a imposter a fake all the time. WHo is he nothing but a imitation. INDIANS this word also imply to me too but iam on more alert with a active mind and not a dumb stupid idiot who would follow anyone just because he happened to be a so called star. The yester years actors like GURU DUTT, BHAGWAN, Balraj sahani etc deserve respect and honour. Let talk about SRK..it does not take an era to get such a pathetic looking person ON screen but just a plain 500 rs ticket to see this frog face go bananas…Well i understand people who admire SRk either have gone throught A POST TRAUMATIC DISORDER OR IS GENETICALLY MUTANT A ABNORMAL CREATURE AND OFF COURSE A BIG RETARD. and for ur kind information there are people who can walk and talk better than SRK and are more highly profiled and respected in the society….at last MAY GOD GIVE BRAINS TO PEOPLE WHO CAN’T DISTINGUISH BETWEEN AN ERA AND HALL TICKET.. GET A DOC WIMPS OF SRKS…..
ok….so dis message is for da truth dude^^
first of all i want to tell u if u hve such a problem wid today’s actors and movies do all of us a favor and take ur little timemachine and go back to da time u want to, but of course u can’t. so live wid da fact dat today we hve dese actors, and out of those actors shahrukh has won da most awards, has made da best movies, and has da best fan followings. o wait…but those millions of people are probably all retards right??? hmmm dats a problem if soo many ppl in dis world r wrong and YOU r right. pleasee, u think u know so much bout acting den why r u only talking bout da way srk talks and walks. he’s an actor so talk bout his acting, but its obvious u don’t know shit bout acting so dats why looks is all u can talk bout. o yes and ur right dat srk fans r probably retared for liking a guy who is da king of bollywood, and as for bollywood copying hollywood, if u hve such a problem den take ur sry ass to hollywood and watch dere movies, obviously u don’t respect bollywood if u can’t let dem make movies dat r good, if dey come frm hollywood or not.
