Produced by Subhash Ghai and directed by Abbas Mastan duo, '36 China Town' is a thriller with a big starcast. Besides Shahid and Kareena, the movie stars Akshaye Khanna , newcomer Upen Patel , Payal Rohatgi , Isha Koppikar , Tanushree Dutta , Paresh Rawal and Johnny Lever.

The movie has Shahid Kapur playing a struggling actor named Raj. Kareena Kapoor plays Priya, a girl who was ditched by her boyfriend just before her wedding. Raj and Priya are strangers to each other, until fate brings them together with a promise for them to make some money.

The money is the reward Raj and Priya hope to get for reuniting a lost child to his mother. The mother is Madam Sushmita, a high-profile woman who owns a casino and runs other illegal businesses. She has lost her 5-yr-old son and offers huge reward money for anyone who finds and brings back her son.

Raj and Priya go to Madam Sushmita's bungalow number 36 in China Town to reunite her lost son with her. But upon reaching her place at midnight, they find Madam Sushmita murdered.

Shocked, Raj and Priya run away from the scene of crime. But in hurry they forget their suitcase there. They also leave behind their footprints. This evidence makes them prime suspects in the eyes of the police who comb the city to nab them. Raj and Priya become fugitives.

Akshaye Khanna plays inspector Akshay who takes charge of the case. As Akshay racks his brains to solve the murder mystery, the list of usual suspects increases. The case becomes more complicated than it appeared at first.

Among the other suspects are Sonia and Vicky, a married couple. There is also a high society playboy Rocky (Upen Patel) who was spotted near the bungalow on the night of murder. Even the old butler Natwar (Paresh Rawal) is one of the suspects.

The plot thickens as inspector Akshay investigates deeper into the case. Who is the killer? And what is the motive? Are Raj and Priya innocent? All these questions will be answered in what would apparently be a riveting climax of the movie.

'36 China Town' has music by the current favorite Himesh Reshammiya and lyrics by Sameer. The movie features five songs and a promotional music video which will most likely roll with the end credits.

This promotional video is choreographed by Remo and features many Chinese dancers. Ahmed Khan has choreographed the remaining songs.

The main cast of the movie is young and fresh and the film also has a modern and hip look. Shahid and Kareena have previously acted together in Fida , which wasn't a success at the box-office.

Thanks for the article [:)] ...sounds like a somewhat interesting film but not sure I'm going to go out of my way to see it.
