In the initial years of his career, Ramesh Sippy made two gems that we remember [and cherish] to this date -- SEETA AUR GEETA and SHOLAY. SEETA AUR GEETA was about twin-sisters -- the docile and the aggressive. SHOLAY, of course, needs no introduction. Yet, to update the unacquainted, Ramgarh is gripped by a terror called Gabbar. Resultantly, Thakur recruits two men to put an end to Gabbar's tyranny.

Nikhil Advani pays homage to Ramesh Sippy's movies by merging SHOLAY and SEETA AUR GEETA. But this concoction called CHANDNI CHOWK TO CHINA is as bland as khichdi.

Write your own movie review of Chandni Chowk To China

Come to think of it, Nikhil Advani had everything going for him. It's a dream project, what with heavyweights such as Warner Bros., Ramesh Sippy, Akhay Kumar and Gordon Liu agreeing to be a part of this mammoth project. But Nikhil slips and trips, falling flat on his face.

A masala film is always welcome. In fact, two desi films [RAB NE BANA DI JODI and GHAJINI] have been lapped up by the junta in a big way, but CHANDNI CHOWK TO CHINA is an unbearable masala fare that insults the intelligence of the moviegoer.

\n\n'));" frameBorder=0 width=300 scrolling=no height=250>'));" frameBorder=0 width=0 scrolling=no height=0 allowTransparency>

The problem with CHANDNI CHOWK TO CHINA is that it lacks a watertight screenplay to keep you glued for those 2.45 hours. Agreed, you don't look for logic and reason in hardcore potboilers, but the least the director and his team of writers could do is provide loads of entertainment. Sadly, writers Shridhar Raghavan and Rajat Aroraa make mincemeat of a plot that had the potential to woo viewers from Chandni Chowk to China to Chicago to Cape Town.

So, what's the verdict then? Enjoy Chinese food instead. This one's a big, big, big letdown!

Sidhu [Akshay Kumar] cuts vegetables at a roadside food stall in Chandni Chowk in Delhi. He longs to escape his dreary existence and looks for shortcuts -- with astrologers, tarot readers and fake fakirs -- believing anything except himself, despite his father figure Dada's [Mithun Chakraborty] best efforts.

The story takes a turn when two strangers from China claim he's a reincarnation of a war hero and take him to China. Thanks to the devious translator, a conman by the name Chopstick [Ranvir Shorey], little does he know that he is being taken to the Chinese village of vicious smuggler Hojo [Gordon Liu].

Therefore, Sidhu blissfully sets forth to China with Chopstick, who instigates dreams of a delicious future and forgets to reveal the perils, which await him. Along the way, he meets Sakhi [Deepika Padukone], who has embarked on a journey to pay homage to the land of her birth and her dead father and twin.

Hojo catches up with Sidhu and eliminates Dada right in front of everyone. Sidhu seeks revenge and finds the one man who will make him a Kungfu expert and set the village free from Hojo's tyranny.

On face-value, what do you expect from CHANDNI CHOWK TO CHINA? Laughter unlimited, great martial arts, a glimpse of China. But what's served on the platter is so insipid, so lame, so senseless that you wonder if there was a script in the first place. The comic scenes [that make you laugh] are few and far between. The scenes depicting martial arts are hardly exciting. Also, barring the Great Wall of China, don't expect China darshan here!

There are big holes in the script. Sample these… * How and why do the two oppressed Chinese men suddenly land up in Chandni Chowk in Delhi? Also, how do they zero on Ranvir Shorey? No explanations offered. * Deepika's track of visiting China is trite. Wasn't the twin-sister, an infant, thrown off the Great Wall of China? How did Gordon Liu suddenly decide to bring her up? * Similarly, Deepika's father was also pushed from the Great Wall, but he survives. Akshay too is beaten black and blue and thrown off [coincidentally, from the same place -- Great Wall], but is rescued mid-air by Deepika's father. Miracles never cease to occur, must add.

Post interval, Akshay undergoes a gruelling training session, but not once does the preparation give an impression that Akshay is seething with anger and vengeance. That's because the director has injected humour in these scenes and that takes away the seriousness from the plot. The climax is equally contrived and hence, makes no impact whatsoever.

Although the year 2009 has just begun, this film is sure to be a strong contender in Razzies in two departments mainly -- direction and writing. Nikhil Advani goes horribly wrong this time. As for the writers, well, they ought to take a crash course in film writing pronto. The songs are okay, with the title track and 'Naam Hai Sidhu' being the pick of the lot. The stunts [Dee Dee Ku] are plain mediocre. Even the dated martial arts' movies produced in the East offered better stuff. Himman Dhamija's cinematography lacks the picture perfect look.

Akshay Kumar is the sole saving grace, but the director hasn't tapped his potential to the fullest. Deepika Padukone is passable. Gordon Liu is decent. Ranvir Shorey is functional. Mithun Chakraborty is bland. Roger Yuan, Deepika's father in the film, is fair.

On the whole, CHANDNI CHOWK TO CHINA is a brilliant opportunity gone appallingly wrong. The film falls way below expectations and is a major disappointment in all respects. At the box-office, the hype might translate into a bountiful weekend, that's it. Thumbs down!

I think if you look at it objectively, he is going down the SRK pathway. He knows his comic role is a hit with the masses and he's riding on the success of that much like SRK and his Rajs and Rahuls. At the same time, I agree that he should be more versatile. His roles are so predictable that it's not even funny anymore. I honestly think he's a good actor (Sangharsh and Janwar were pretty good, IMO) but his current roles leave a lot to be desired.

I think there's a high probability that this will turn out to be a hit, due in no small part to the names associated with it.

Hindi Chini Why Why?

Raja Sen

I would like to take this opportunity to ask Twinkle Kumar [nee Khanna] if there was ever a time when her husband Akshay tried cooking for her, did so rather woefully, and she felt the politest response was to giggle.

In this hypothetical situation, Kumar might have mistaken this for genuine mirth, and assumed -- along with fellow dinner guest Shridhar Raghavan (the writer of Bluffmaster and Khakee [Images]) -- that the idea of him as a chef was surefire comic gold, a prospect the actor and writer tried out first with Raj Kumar Santoshi's [Images] abominable disaster Family, and then this latest Nikhil Advani [Images] blooper, Chandni Chowk To China [Images].

A film that makes Singh Is Kinng seem like a highly textured work of complex characterisation and nuanced writing, Chandni Chowk To China is a disastrous overbudget mess -- and it may even turn out to be the one film so weak that even current box-office almighty Akshay Kumar [Images] can't save it.

He tries his best, but the film itself can't quite decide whether to be a massively over-the-top bit of masala (like Kumar's own vaguely enjoyable Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi) or an out-and-out spoof (like Shah Rukh Khan's [Images] guilty pleasure silly movie Baadshah). No, this one slots into a painful no-man's-genre area, and, clearly confused between the campy comic route and the overtly melodramatic path, constantly stumbles around.

Sample, if you will, this early contender for the year's most bizarre dialogue: Kumar has been trained in Kung Fu, his arms turned into lethal weapons using something called the Iron Forearm technique. Soon he's folding Deepika Padukone [Images] into these aforementioned steely arms, and saying [I translate, roughly] 'I have Iron Forearms. Soon I'll have Iron Legs, an Iron Chest, Iron Stomach,' he pauses to look down pointedly, 'and an Iron...' Here he trails off as the girl coyly covers his mouth, saying 'Enough' with a smile.

'Don't stop me now,' retorts he, 'My entire body is now made of iron.' She smiles, flutters eyelids, and breathily says, 'Oh, mere Iron Man.'

Nope, not kidding.

But Iron Man creator Stan Lee isn't the only Lee this constantly underwhelming film would disappoint. The film's patently loopy plot involves a reincarnated Chinese warrior, a half-Chinese half-Indian translator whose origin story gets even more muddled at the end, a Hindi-speaking Chinese cop with twin daughters who have divvied up their Indian and Chinese features based on where they live, and a baddie who borrows his big gimmick from a James Bond [Images] villain's sidekick.

And all of the above, unbearably insane as it sounds, could still have made for a perfectly enjoyable film had it completely embraced the absurd and gone for laughs, but Chandni Chowk To China oscillates between a kick-propelled Akshay flying several blocks and the very same man being humiliated and spat upon, with an unsubtle background score suggesting we should be sad. Sigh. We are, but the pity we feel isn't for the hero, it's for the film that could have been.

In the middle of all this martial arts moron-giri, Deepika plays Miss TSM, an online shopping saleswoman (her infomercial is one of the film's high points) as well as her twin sister Meow Meow, a hot Chinese vamp. And while the catty Oriental Deepika looks significantly edible, her presence only serves to make Deepika 1.0 look depressingly dull, and after seeing two of her share the same frame we can no longer run from the fact that the word acting and this pretty girl don't quite belong in the same sentence.

But isn't Akshay good, you wonder. Isn't he the man who routinely makes scriptless movies enjoyable? Doesn't he often work despite the script and the scenes, simply by dint of being who he is? Sure he does, and he manages a few genuine laughs this time around as well, yet his primary achievement in this film is that his character connects completely with the audience: as his protagonist Sidhu haplessly wonders what's going on around him, we sit in the darkened theatre and feel his dazed-and-confused pain.

What flummoxes me completely is the fact that this film is produced by Rohan Sippy, one of the more restrained Bollywood filmmakers and a man who believes in coolth via understatement, and gargantuan American film studio Warner Brothers, making a much hyped foray into India. The only man I can see completely adore this movie is former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu, who shares a last name with Kumar's character and might like to hear Kailash Kher [Images] routinely exhort him to greatness. And like on his comedy show, we're not laughing half as hard.

It's not the first time that Akshay's end-credits music video is the best thing about his latest hit, but even as this one features backup dancers gyrate in KillBillesque yellow-black jumpsuits behind the superstar, you realise that you're only really happy to see them because the film's finally over.

Twinkle bhabhi, please tell Akshay to leave cooking to the others. We'll be fine ordering in some takeout, really.

Review: CC2C crashes all BO hopes, a toothless comedy worth a missAshwini Kumar

Mumbai, Jan 16: We had great expectations, immense hope that right from the beginning of the year 2009, Akshay will do wonders in the film 'Chandni Chowk to China' and Box Office would be flooded with unprecedented collection. It was also being said that 'Chandni Chowk to China,' made in the budget of Rs 80 cr will bridge the gap between Hollywood and Bollywood. But 'Kinng' Akshay disappoints and the film appears nothing but a waste of time and money.

Such is the effect of the film that one will have to think thrice before watching Akshay's next film. The actor has gone over-the-top and over confident in his comic sequences. The storyline is miserable and the plot flawed.

The story revolves around Siddhu (Akshay Kumar) – a vegetable chopper in Chandni Chowk. He wants to learn and acquire everything without doing anything. On the other hand, there is a small village in China, which is ruled by the evil Jojo (Gordon Liu). The villagers want to escape from his rule and eagerly await some messiah, who would free them.

Incidentally, they come across Siddhu in Chandni Chowk and feel that he is God sent for them. They start considering him as their king and take him to China. As a result, Siddhu reaches China, and attempts various jocularly acts. He also meets two separated sisters Sukhi and Suzi (Deepika Padukone). But amidst all this, he looses his Dada (Mithun), who keeps egging him on to fight, despite being a ghost. This comes as a turning point in his life and he goes on to become a master in Kung Fu. Now, who will win at the end is anybody's guess but the way the climax has been presented is obnoxious.

Nikhil Advani has failed on directorial front. Even if you avoid looking at the technical flaws, there are serious problems with direction. Comic sequences are lame and incapable of evoking laughter. Camerawork is good but music disappoints. Except for the title track, there is nothing worth commending on and choreography is equally poor.

Apart from Akshay's worthless attempt at comedy, other actors too have done their best to try the audience's patience. Deepika Padukone has been reduced to a glam-doll and her much hyped action scenes are a work of special effects, Ranvir Shorey's role was short and Mithun Chakraborty has done nothing except for thrashing Akshay.

To sum it up, CC2C appears like a cartoon film – as Akshay had mentioned. Ironically, in the climax scene, the filmmaker has put the board of 'To be continued'. But evidentally after seeing the fate of the film, moviemakers Warner Brothers would never agree to continue with it. Two cheers!

By Nita Jatar Kulkarni Thu, 15 Jan 2009

If the director Nikhil Advani has called this an "illogical, mad film," we know what to expect. However, even if one expects nothing more than a mad illogical film, Chandni Chowk To China is disappointing. A mad film can carry itself along if it is tumultuous enough and funny enough, but this one isn't.

This two hour 34 minute movie is a slapstick comedy, but the jokes are stale. Worse, many scenes seem to stretch on endlessly, the dialogues boring and repetitive, and one wishes the director would get on with it. After the interval Advani does get on with it...but doesn't have much to say. Take away the fight scenes and the movie is nothing. The fight choreography was the work of Dee Dee Ku, an experienced stunt choreographer.

The theme seems decent enough. It's about how one should try and make one's own way in the world, not depend on Fate or God. Sidhu, a fatalistic, cowardly, religious nincompoop is at the centre of it all. He is a small-time cook and helper in the bylanes of Chandni Chowk in Delhi, obsessed with making it big by winning a lottery or simply by the grace of God. He keeps looking for signs that his life is about to change. Getting his palm read, wearing various beads and totems and going to astrologers are what he does in his spare time. His Dada (Mithun Chakraborty), the man who has brought him up, keeps telling him that this isn't the way to success, but his advice falls on deaf ears. And when a Chinese-Indian holy man called Chopstick (Ranvir Shorey) urges him to go to China he sets off happily, sure that a great life awaits him.

The audience knows better as the film had begun with the impressive legend of Chinese warrior Liu Sheng who died defending his country against invading tribes. These are modern times and the villains are different, but there are Chinese villagers who want someone like Liu Sheng to come and save them. Surely it cannot be a fool like Sidhu?

This movie does not exclusively center around Akshay Kumar. Two well known Chinese actors play strong characters - Gordon Liu is the villain Hojo and Roger Yuan plays Chiang, a police officer. Both do a good job and Gordon Liu was particularly good. Deepika Padukone is the Chinese Suzie/Meow Meow as well as the Indian Sakhi (double role). She looks great and it was also interesting to see her character Meow Meow perform action scenes, which Deepika did herself. Akshay too does a good job with the Kung Fu scenes but he comes into his own pretty late in the film. Ranvir Shorey's role is that of the comical holy man Chopstick but somehow he does not impress in this film.

As all the characters are exaggerated stereotypes, acting skills are clearly not of prime importance. Characters are also poorly developed. For example, there is a humorous attempt to try and explain Chopstick's psyche, but it comes across as more ridiculous than funny. What a waste of Shorey's talent. The relationship between Sidhu and his adopted father Dada is poorly brought out, with the exchanges between them repetitive and lacklustre. As their relationship was central to the movie, I think some good scripting could have added the extra punch this movie needed.

Most of the action takes place in China but except for plenty of heady shots of the Great Wall, and a few shots of Shanghai, there isn't much China to see. Not surprising, considering that a large part of the China scenes have been shot in Thailand.

While watching CC2C I got this awful sense of deja vu... about a hundred movies of the past seemed to come together. The movie is strongly reminiscent of the seventies Bollywood movies complete with lost at birth babies, tearful reunions and heroes singlehandedly fending off the evil guys. Well, the latter is reminiscent of Kung Fu movies. In fact CC2C is a Kung-Fu Bollywood fusion, the first of its kind. Another first for this movie is that it is backed by Warner Bros. Surprising that Warner got itself into such an unoriginal venture and plans a sequel!
However, making box office predictions is quite impossible. After all, this movie is packed with star power, is shot at exotic locations, has a few catchy tunes and has been heavily promoted and advertised.

Chandni Chowk To China: Maar-Saala Arts 😆
By Subhash K Jha

Starring Mithin Chakraborty, Akshay Kumar, Deepika Padukone, Ranvir Shorey
Directed by Nikhil Advani
Rating : *

This is a film about maar-saala arts, not to be confused with martial arts which Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan practice with such splendid and subtle skills on screen.

Akshay Kumar cannot be accused of the sins of subtlety. Not at all. He goes from a sweaty cook in Chandni Chowk to a cheesy fighter in China with hammers tongs and indecipherable tongues.

What lies between the extremities represented by the two Oriental cultures has to be seen to be believed….or, not seen to be not borne. But then we in country love to torture ourselves. And most of us do exactly what we are told not to.

So go for this one. And find out why 'Bollywood' (that horribly inappropriate wannabe term used to describe Hindi mainstream cinema) cannot compete with its technically savvy upcountry cousins from the West, or even China and Hong Kong.

When Jackie Chan kicks @#$%&, man… he really kicks! No two ways about it. Akshay Kumar divides his time between being an action hero and a comic virtuoso, tripping over the line that divides the two genres with little or no scope to contain the fall as the screenplay plunges lower and lower into the depths of inanity.

Writer Sridhar Raghavan, known for his smart slick cerebral takes on formulistic conventions spins a web of incidents chronicling the journey of Sidhu the protagonist from a cook in Chandni Chowk to the satirical samurai in Shanghai is littered with laughable incidents and episodes that appear more to be part of a clumsy sitcom lampooning the Chinese than purported large-screen spectacle bringing China to Bollywood.

Director Nikhil Advani (who displayed pockets of sensitivity in his innovative but over-long Salaam-e-Ishq two years ago) takes the hero into what looks like a carryover of the Chambal ravines in China.

Honestly, if this film had been shot anywhere in the world it would've been just as bland and fatuous. What compounds the woefully inadequate narration is the abject lack of connectivity between the protagonist and the audience.

Not even for a second do we feel a rush of empathetic adrenaline for the culturally-displaced Sidhu who encounters all kinds of emaciated goons, terrorized by a suited, booted and largely-uprooted villain named Hojo (Gordon Lieu) who is no Gabbar Singh or Mogambo.

Just an aging goon in a black suit who doesn't know it's bad manners to pee in public, specially in the hero's face.

Brutality when done with grace can be extremely arresting. We saw that recently in Ghajini. Chandni Chowk To China does the cause of cinematic violence a great deal of disservice.

The internationally-renowned action directors who pool in their might seem unsure of where to position the action. Perched on the Great Wall Of China, Akshay Kumar and his fellow fighters (and that includes the desi Lucy Lieu Deepika Padukone) slug it out like drunken revelers on a rowdy spree.

Elegance is in short supply in the film, except when Deepika playing twin sisters (told apart mainly by their hair, one of them perpetually forgets to braid it properly) waltzes in with a light step and twinkling eye. She seems to have fun. We don't. And that's mainly because the scriptwriter forgot to include the audience in his circle of entertainment.

Large chunks of this 'Adventures Of Sidhu in blunderland' saga leave us cold and unresponsive. And when the final climactic fight between the hero and the villain occurs, Akshay Kumar decides to turn it into a comic romp in the middle of the climac. We are more dazed than dazzled by the baffling mood swings in the plot.

Yes, there are moments that hold your attention. Sidhu's martial arts training with twin Deepika Padukone's Chinese dad (who looks like he could do with a wash) are superbly orchestrated.

That touch of unstrained comicality in stressful times that the narration apparently strives to achive, eludes the film by a wide margin. Most of the time you are looking at a film that does appalling things to Indo-Chinese relations. Not to mention our traditional perception of mainstream masala-maar ke entertainment.

Martial arts are turned into maar-saala arts. And you leave the film wondering what it was meant to be. A bird, a plane or just a pathetic parody of Jackie Chan's comic vendetta sagas.

Chandni Chowk To China isn't just no-brainer. Its lobotomized laughter can make you wish for anesthesia. At least you'd know where the numbness is coming from.

REVIEW: Chandni Chowk to China
You'd be happier watching the reruns of Welcome and Namastey London

Director Nikhil Advani may not be as prolific as some of his other contemporaries. But he did give us one of the most memorable onscreen characters in recent times – Kantaben.

The scandalised domestic help from Kal Ho Na Ho who walks into her master's room and finds him in bed with another man has become something of a cult.

In Chandni Chowk to China, Nikhil seeks to create another loveable character Sidhu (Akshay Kumar), the village buffoon who travels from the bylanes of Delhi's Chandni Chowk to a Chinese village.

Thanks to his dubious translator, Chopstick (Ranvir Shorey) Sidhu is unaware of the real reason he's going to China.

As it seems the people there think he is the reincarnation of a dead warrior who must rid the village of a vicious smuggler Hojo (Gordon Liu).

Along the way, we are introduced to Sakhi (Deepika Padukone), a tele-shopping model who has tricked Sidhu and is also travelling to China.

The plot thickens as her look-alike twin sister Meow Meow comes into the picture. Apparently the two are separated at birth and their father killed by Mojo and his men.

As the story progresses we realise that the father is not dead, Meow Meow works for her father's killer, Akshay has a 'secret move' that will send shivers down the spine of most Shaolin masters and finally the two sisters do not speak the same language.

Like most underdog stories, the buffoon finds a mentor (Sakhi/Meow Meow's father in this case), undergoes serious kung-fu/karate training and sets out to fulfil his destiny.

Overuse of clichs

On the surface, Chandni Chowk seems like a perfectly okay movie – it has been decently shot, most actors have delivered above average performances and it has fight sequences that we haven't seen much of in Bollywood.

Where it does fail though is in the plot and characterisation. Minute after minute we are shown scenes that are straight out of the '70s and '80s films. So you have the father figure (Mithun Chakraborty) being killed in the village square, the buffoon who turns saviour, the lost mentor who finds a reason to live again and finally the classic Manmohan Desai formula of siblings being separated at birth.

At the beginning, you want to believe that the maker is trying to spoof the times gone by. But somewhere along, the line begins to blur. And that is when the emotional sequences start evoking laughter.

The classic scene is where Sakhi recounts her painful past in Hindi and her Chinese counterpart understands every word of what she says thanks to a device that translates every language in the world!

well i agree that akshay is a good actor... but now his movies r totally disappointing.. what is he doing? is he here only to make money? i guess he has made enough...now he shud do some "acting" ...making money is fine but repeating the same stuff again n again is too much now..

almost every film is same..whats the diff b/w welcome, SIK, hey baby, namastey london? nothing if u think abt it..same stuff... n im sure CC2C is no diff...its getting bad reviews all over..that proves that everyone is getting tired of this comedy ( i dunno if its comedy or not..cuz i hardly laughed in SIK ) its so not funny...

whenever i see his movies now.. i just now what expressions he'll have..what he'll do..i mean its similar in every damn movie.. what is he givin his fans? he needs to do a good role.. who will remember SIK , Welcome etc few years from now on? No one! now only no one remembers... 😕 a good movie..a good role is what separates u from the rest...ppl will remember a good role for years to come..who'll care abt such craps? they might make money...but as ac actor..im sure he wants more than that...

its time to move on akshay!
