| If there is one comic/suspense/thriller that is most keenly anticipated this summer, it is Abbas Mustan's '36 China Town'. Starring Akshaye Khanna, Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor in lead along with debutant Upen Patel and bomb shell Payal Rohatgi, there is not much about the film that has been revealed so far. The title of the film gives an impression that the plot is set somewhere in China, Hong Kong or some other Far East country. But this is far from truth as '36, China Town' is the name of a bungalow that is situated at none other than our good old Goa. Beach, babes, sun and lots'n'lots of suspense! Aren't we excited already? The masters of suspense and drama promise a lot as their upcoming '36 China Town' gears up for a May release. After a break of one and a half years since their last 'Aitraaz' released (and turned out to be hit), they pair up with Subhash Ghai again for '36 China Town' that appears to be belonging to the same thriller genre that they have perfected over the years since 'Khiladi', 'Baazigar', 'Soldier', 'Ajnabee' and 'Humraaz'. They also did 'Daraar' [drama], 'Baadshah [comedy], Chori Chori Chupke Chupke [love story/social] and 'Taarzan - The Wonder Car' [children's film] but what they have always been famous for are their crisp'n'thrilling entertainers. '36 China Town' looks exactly that as it seems to quite intriguing with right dose of comic/popcorn elements. Here is looking forward to the film that again brings together the real life 'jodi' of Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor after a debacle called 'Fida'.
