Chennai Express (2013) [37/50]

Language: Hindi

Cast: Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone,  Satyaraj
Story: A comedy based on a north Indian getting stuck among some south Indian dons and the humor that arises from his escape.

Screenplay and direction: Direction is average and screenplay is ok.

Performances: Shah Rukh Khan is average and sometimes tries too hard, Deepika Padukone is very good, the rest of the cast is not too bad either.

Interesting:  SRK broke his own record of maximum promotion of a movie with the promotion of this movie in India. This movie broke the first day collection records.

USP: Typical light hearted comedy, brainless but funny, time pass.

Downside: Plot holes, senseless plot, ok ok jokes, SRK’s character is annoying at times.


Verdict: All I can say is that SRK has done worse and gotten appreciated for it. This one is a time pass comedy. It can be watched if in the right mood for senseless comedy. 6/10
