can someone plz analyse if North Indian audience will accept CE ??? will the title or south Indian background affect the collections in North india ???? obviously SRK fans will watch it no doubt abt it

Ainvayi hi this thought came in my mind after reading this title ... nothing against anyone or any region

SRK is the only non South person in 'Chennai Express'

Rohit Shetty's 'Chennai Express' is an action love story. The plot revolves around Shah Rukh Khan, who plays a guy from Mumbai who goes to the South where he meets Deepika Padukone, who plays a Tamilian.

Interestingly, other than SRK, the entire cast and main crew are from the South ' starting with director Rohit Shetty to actors Deepika, Sathyarajand Priya Mani to writer Madi and even the cameramen Dadli and Guru.

While shooting in Munnar, there were 300 local dancers and to communicate even a simple line like 'okay you do this with me' was a challenge for SRK and he needed two translators to make them understand. On one occasion when Shah Rukh said, 'Kundi kholo' (which in Hindi means open the latch), one of the crew was shocked askundi in Tamil means 'bum'.

actually it's our official language..we don't have a national language!

On topic, no! Most of the South Indian actresses are North Indians-yet they get work! Can we just end this divide..it's one country and the industry represents talent from all across the country!

On one occasion when Shah Rukh said, 'Kundi kholo' (which in Hindi means open the latch), one of the crew was shocked askundi in Tamil means 'bum'.

^^the exact same thing happened to me! 😆

It will gain maximum revenue from North Only!

I doubt whether it will be accepted in South! The are busy with their own regional films!
