chak de,india....

for some stupid unexplainable n yet predictable reason i watched "the" movie everyone's talkin about on independence day......not that it makes a difference(i mean u can never experience a sense of patriotism u do not feel just by watchin some movie on the 15th august or 26th jan)...
let's leave the explanations bahind(nope not a spellin mistake,just tryin a different accent in the writin style too since it's catchin most ppl's fancy in the lingo)...
Ah,where was i?the movie right?hmmm....well one of the sensible cinema in the recent times given the rate at which movies r comin up these days it is quite an achievement i daresay...
The story for one has nothing new to say or nohting extraordinary to portray n yet the fact that it is told with utmost sincerity is it's biggest plus point...Brings home the fact once again that to make a good cinema u don't necessarily need a very good script,sometimes your earnestness n sincerity can touch hearts in a way u might have never dreamt of as possible.........
The story revolves around the story of a coach Kabir Khan(aka SRK) who once upon a time had captained the Indian National Hockey team.. But trouble arose when the team lost a decisive match against Pakistan and suddenly his integrity and intentions were put under a scanner owing to his muslim origins...At this point the story seems a tad too far fetched..The fact that a loss of one match became the ultimate nail in the coffin for Kabir Khan and he was kicked out seems a bit unbelievable..Let us let it be for the time...
Now Kabir Khan decides to make a comeback into the game of hockey as a coach to the National Women's Hockey Team.. This is his last and only chance to regain back his lost dignity,glory and self respect...
The story from this point is beautifully depicted..A story which tells the tale of hardwork,grit and determination...Brings home the fact that there still might still be justice out there in the big,bad world of male chuavanists(no offence meant)... The cast does full justice to the roles they depict...Very well done..
Now we come to the best part of the movie..yes,SRK..If there's one actor whose restrained,silent and yet powerful performance stands tall like a pillar of strength throughout the movie it's him...
Everytime the critics have stood ready to write him off as a destiny's favourite child he bounces back with ine such performance which is enough to silence his critics(atleast for a while)...Give him a role of this nature and the way he rises to the ocassion to perform such a role is phenomenal,really.......All we have SRK's fans have just one thing to say to him,we need a few more of Swades's and Chak de's please....because if this is what u r truly capable of then it's a sin to settle for anything lesser,from your side as well as us.....................
