Review: Chak De

August 10, 2007 · by sudhishkamath

Jaideep Sahni is surely one of the finest screenwriters of our times, probably the best mainstream Hindi cinema has seen – Company, Bunty aur Babli, Khosla Ka Ghosla and now, Chak De!

    SRK movies r a lot better sans the romance, music and mush I say. Hope somebody can put sense into other movie makers too. The DDLJ days are gone. SRK should get outta tat phase for his own benefit…A 45 yr old man romancing and dancing around like a teenager is more than i can take.. sigh!
