Hellooo🤗

OK ..Finally...watched Chennai Express today🥳...and my stomach still hurts because I laughed so much...The movie was a riot...⭐️
First of all..i have to say..that the movie is not a typical masala movie...Its a mix of Shahrukh's style and Rohit Shetty's style...There was a very balanced mix..of romance, comedy and action in the movie...and perhaps this is one reason that the movie is such a huge hit...because it has something both for the classes and the masses...There were hilarious dialogues...I simply loved the hints Rahul and Meenamma gave to each other by singing ...it was something new and will be copied a lot in future...I loved how the references from old Shahrukh movies were used and rightfully so...Shahrukh has 20 years worth of awesome movies...its justified tht he used most of the references from his own movies...although the chinta ta chita chita from RR was hilarious😆
Yes the acting of Shahrukh was a little OTT in some places...but it was expected...because this movie was neither a CDI nor a Swades...Good actors have to ADAPT themselves according to the genre...
The kicking scene was hilarious...and SRK looked so cute everytime he was scared of someone..
Acting wise...Shahrukh is an amazing actor so no complaints ...😆...He looked young, fresh and cute..
Deepika has improved so much as an actor and OMG...is she gorgeous...the Indian look totally suits her...Her dialogue delivery, comic timing, beauty...everything is perfect...She is now one of my favorites besides Vidya and Katrina...I loved the chemistry she and Shahrukh share...👍🏼
The locales where the movie was shot were just beautiful...I think South India is just naturally beautiful...
The songs looked so good on the big screen with all that surround sound...and so colorful as well...although I don't know why they cut parts of some songs😕
Some people said that they did not understand the Tamil dialogues...Well...it was because...Rahul was telling us his story...We were supposed to understand ONLY what he understood...right😆
As far as disrespecting South India , its traditions and languages go...I didn't see any to be honest..
The only part that I didn't like was the fighting and blood and gore in the climax...I do not enjoy such scenes in general..so didn't enjoy in this movie also...Other than that...I loved the movie...Its a great movie to watch with family...there is no vulgarity, to inappropriate dialogues...even the one item song...can be hardly called an item song...😛
Definitely going to buy the DVD of this movie whenever it is out ...and watch it again and again😆🥳



blue ice>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tell yaaa.. you have overshadowed CE ...
welcome back ...glad you loved the movie.
me so so...BUT...who cares whether the movie is loved or hated...all i care now is the NUMBERS...feels goood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, glad CE crossed 150Cr. Wooohooo! Hope it does way more! 😎

Ab sab gaayb hain. They will come back with usual holiday release + 3700 screens + hiked ticket prices...as if their films were released in 1 screen w/ 20 other films, & tickets were 2 Rs.😆

You know what I meant Ania :) ...more or like re-prove, or remind us. People are forgetting ...I saw too many comments about how CDIor Swades is the only good film in his career...I go like this when I read those.

I have a feeling he might have signed that one, but with SRK until he starts shooting, or releases poster, you never know.


@bold: OMG! You're hilarious! 🤣

You know I was reading Masand interview of some sort that came out recently and there he mentioned Kabhi Haan, Kabhi Naa, CDI, Swades among his fav. SRK movies.
I think Shah has been brilliant in most of his movies...as he said recently that he knows what the critics "want" to see and he can do that but it won't be reaching out/appealing to all the audience. He is still acting even in films like OSO, MHN, CE, KHNH, just that this is a lil 'easier' kind of acting compared to his other acclaimed works. But its still acting, cuz even for those roles, I can't picture anyone other than Shah...eg. Sallu can't do a CE or, Amir wouldn't pull off an OSO/MHN. But, the so called critics, fail to realize that and don't acknowledge the hard work and acting that still goes in these roles he has done. Cuz as far as I know SRK the person if far too different from those characters...so he ain't playing himself unlike *ahem* someone. 😆

As I said before, I do understand his predicament of wanting to do this kind of massy cinema. He is at a point in his career where youngsters and other big stars of his league are just waiting for one little downfall to put him down. So, I think that whole thing keeps him back and gives him hesitation from doing the 'other' kind of cinema like CDI/Swades.

Anyways. Wrong topic to discuss that.


I know, I myself was disgusted when I read that tweet. It just made me so uncomfortable, even more to know that audience would cheer for such crap dialogues...seriously, even after all that happened to women in the previous few months. 👎🏼

PMd. And noo; way back in 2009-2010 my sister and friends visited DMG forums. Since I used to visit too, and I didn't want them finding out, I made up a fake name. Eventually I told only a select few people what my real name is. :P

And omggg! CE made 139 Crores excluding PP according to BOI! Wooohoo! That's awesome! :)
