But Kudos to the ‘Om Shanti Om' couple who, with their presence, paper up the blemishes with their amusing chemistry.
SRK is back as a charming Rahul who is a romantic feat action hero. His screen presence is delightful which none can replace. He tickles your funny bone, makes you emotional at times and when it comes to action he doesn't exploits but takes the punch and delivers the same with full strength.
Deepika, playing his lady love after ‘Om Shanti Om' , is surprisingly humourous. Her Southern dialect sounds cute and she looks innocent and beautiful. She slips into the character brilliantly and never comes out of it till the end. The hilarious moment in the flick belongs to her where she wakes up in the midnight and acts weird.
The veteran star Sathyaraj leaves a desired effect but could have been given more meat. The muscular Nikiteen Dheer is good.
Music by Vishal-Shekhar is great. However, before its release, the music wasn't the high point of the flick, but it is good. Kashmir se Kanya Kumari and Tera Rasta tracks are my favourites.
I'll go with two and a half stars for Chennai Express which, from any end, is neither inspiring nor thought provoking. With Shah Rukh-Deepika's screen presence, this is just a masala entertainer which won't disappoint Rohit and SRK's mass audience.
