CHENNAI EXPRESS MOVIE REVIEWAfter a long time, I am back here to review this super duper movie of Shah Rukh Khan. Happened to see the premier show much before the actual release on Friday at Chennai. I had a doubt whether this is tamil film or a hindi film.  I felt like watching a tamil movie as most of the dialogues are in Tamil and for a Shah Rukh film there is no need or necessity for knowing any language. One can easily understand the movie and its narration by just watching Shah Rukh Khan's facial expression. Crux of the FilmIt is a simple one line story and only Shah Rukh Khan can drag this for a full two and half hours entertaining movie. Shah Rukh grandma wanted to immerse the holy ashes of Shah Rukh's grandpa at Rameshwaram whereas Shah Rukh and his other friends have another plan to visit Goa.  To satisfy grandma and to make her belief that he is going to Rameshwaram he boards Chennai Express with a plan to get down in between and join his friends. Fate has other plans to unfold. Deepika Padukone enters the scene to catch the Chennai Express on running mode and our hero gives a helping hand to Board the train. He helps the three more villains to board the same train and later comes to understand that these three persons had actually kidnapped Deepika. How the story moves on from there and how our hero and heroine gets united is beautifully told.Shah Rukh KhanWhenever there is a Shah Rukh Khan its only a one man show. He has done his part very interestingly and showed almost all the jonres in this film. He acts well, dances well, emotes well, fights well and the highlight of this movie is his comedy and its timing. His screen presence with Deepika looks gorgeous & beautiful. Thanks to Camera man who had captured the Chennai Express with beautiful locales. DeepikaFor the first time, Deepika has acted so well and she looks gorgeous throughout the film. I think she has all the potential of a great actor and she should pick it up from here. Sathyaraj & His villain CoterieThere is heavy competition in this film as to who is going to look funny whether its Sathyaraj or Shah Rukh Khan. Its very funny to watch Shah Rukh Khan speaking Tamil and Sathyaraj speaking Hindi. Sathyaraj dons the role of Periya Thalai and he has nothing much to offer other than standing tall and giving a serious pose. His opposite villain Thangabali looks well built and fights well with Shah Rukh at the climax.
MusicVishal Shekhar duo has composed some scintilating numbers and dancing tunes for this movie. Titli song stands out among all. Lungi DanceLooks like Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has successfully managed to impress South Indian superstar Rajinikanth with his 'Thalaiva'  Lungi Dance tribute.Shah Rukh recently revealed during the "Chennai Express" promotion that Rajinikanth had called him personally appreciating the track made in his honour.Rajinikanth saw the video on You Tube and appreciated Shah Rukh saying its really nice, very good, very naughty and very sweet. Shah Rukh Khan was also very happy that Rajini and his entire family liked the song.Guyz dont miss this song at the end of the Movie.Overall this is a "feel good" movie and when I came out and watched the audience pulse everyone was happy and leaving the theatre smilingly. That tells the Success of this Movie.With no heavy competition around, this Chennai Express will run in Chennai for 100 days.There is only one Baadshah in Hindi - Thats Shah Rukh. Whenever he carries the tag "RAHUL" as his name in his movies, those movies are super duper hits and Chennai Express falls in that category.I am going to watch this move once again.VIVEKS PAARVAIChennai Express - Chennai Toronto
