    So much hype and build up for such an ordinary trailer. Did not find even a single line/scene funny. Looks like usual Rohit Shetty movie with lots of colors, jeeps and bikes flying – feel this will be more like Bol Bachchan which I did not like.

    SRK looks bad in that Chuthi scene – reminded me of Jeetendra from those 80s South remakes. They have at least made him 40.

    Don’t know what to make of Deepika’s accent.

    This trailer makes OUTIMA trailer look brilliant.

  5. Sanket Porwal 11 years ago

    Not bad at all…decent one for sure! Deepikas accent is hilarious. Both Srk n deepika seems to have lots of fun!

    My problem is that I expected comedy. But this seems to be a mix of all genres.

    Anyways I have great hopes from Rohit Shetty. I liked 7 out of his 8 films. Golmaal1, All the best and Singham are memorable for me. Hoping CE to do what it is set for.

  6. shinji 11 years ago

    All they hype true, sputnik, but when did shetty said he is making anything else than this.

    Agree it is disappointing, but this seems to be more masala, than comedy, it has serious undertones, like there is blood and anger in the face of SRK, so i will say this is SRK going the masala way!

  7. aryan 11 years ago

    Average Trailer.

  8. Aditya007 11 years ago

    More worse what I expected from Rohit shetty’s film! EVEN Last lines “Rohit shetty style = Sajid Khan Entertainer” :p

  9. Rafsan Cr 11 years ago

    decent trailer.on expected lines. looks like typical rohit sheyy movie which I usually like.so overall I am confident that it will be a entertaining movie as well as a box office success.

    @taran_adarsh 11 Jun #ChennaiExpress trailer and songs are extremely novel, mass appealing, zany, wacky, amusing.

    @KomalNahta 10 Jun Saw d trailer of #chennaiexpress. Funny, very different, fullto fun & frolic.

    now i understand why Taran and Komal used words like zany, wacky, amusing very different, fullto fun & frolic to describe the Chennai Express Trailer..!! 😀

    A classy hardcore masala… brilliant trailer in each n every aspect… just PERFECT. 35 cr 1st day and 100 cr in 4 days is given, Mark my words.

  12. Aditya007 11 years ago

    lolz ”A classy hardcore masala… brilliant trailer in each n every aspect… just PERFECT. 35 cr 1st day and 100 cr in 4 days is given, Mark my words.”

  13. mate 11 years ago

    Now it’s a strong possiblity that OUATIMA makers may delay it for 1 or 2 weeks more. I think they should postpone their project for 5-6 months and reshoot it with some other lead actor, casting Ajay will be a good decision, bcoz casting Akshay in a role of a gangster in itself is a big joke. This is the only solution for them to avoid heavy losses.

    “reshoot it with some other lead actor, casting Ajay will be a good decision, bcoz casting Akshay in a role of a gangster in itself is a big joke. This is the only solution for them to avoid heavy losses.”

    is Tanqeed also turning like Ng with calling Actors with Different names…?????

    • mate 11 years ago

      @ank_16n

      I’m not calling actors with names, I use a name for him from one of his iconic role i-e Joker, so what’s wrong in this. Many actors are famous by the characters’ names so you can also call other actors by their iconic roles/performances like DON, Mr. India etc.

      • ank_16n 11 years ago

        can i use memsaab for SRK as he has done a movie called MAYA MEMSAAB that too as main lead????

        ok..i think its a done deal right????

        • mate 11 years ago

          Yes Ank dear, You can call Srk with this name If he really had portrayed the character of Maya Memsaab, but I think that character was played by a female actor, Deepa Sahi If I’m not wrong. 😀
          Kya yaar Ank, ache khasay samajhdar admi ho ap. Lekin ap ki bhi galti nahi hai, Akki ki movies dekh dekh kar damaag ka dahi to hoga na.

          • ank_16n 11 years ago

            yes i agree …i hope ki aap SRK-Rohit shetty ki movie dekh ke Apna Dimaag ka santulan na khoye…. 😀

            wait….main toh bhul gaya ki aap ke paas dimaag ki kami hai jhabhi aap JOKER movie mein Pure gaon ke Code word ko Akshay ke character se relate kar rahe ho 😆

    ”Now it’s a strong possiblity that OUATIMA makers may delay it for 1 or 2 weeks more”

    really But i think possibility they’ll Closed the Project of fear from Amazing chennai express trailer

    “bcoz casting Joker in a role of a gangster in itself is a big joke”

    Yeah agree Its same like Casting SRK in an film itself a Joke.

    Btw dont get hyper and dont use these type firstly !

    • mate 11 years ago

      “Btw Beta dont get hyper and dont use thease type firstly !”

      No bro, why should I get hyper, Joker main ne toh nahi banayi.
      Aur jahan tak Beta kehne ki baat he, mera nahi khayal k 30 ki age main mujhe Beta kahalwana suit karta hai. I’m sure k ap ne pyar se mujhe Beta kaha hai matlab you call me by nickname, personally mujhe Papa nickname buhat pasand he, so you can call me Papa if you really insist calling me by nickname.

    Iss train ne galat track pakad liya aur Kerala pahunch gayi. (title track dance – kathakali)

    Deepika accent is hyderabadi types.

    Nothing about chennai here.

  17. DABANGG_NIINJA 11 years ago

    Mate kahi aisa na ho is promo ko dekh kr ouatim firse 8 august pr aa jaye

    • mate 11 years ago

      Ninja Dost, Yeh trailer dekh kar hi OUATIMA postpone hui he. Agar ap ko nahi pata toh main bata deta hun, k Tushar kapoor was invited at Mannat to see CE trailer as he is very close to Srk, and after seeing it, he asked his sister to postpone. Btw Badi dhamakedar entry marri aj TQ main. 😉

  18. DABANGG_NIINJA 11 years ago

    First day second day holiday .fir saturday sunday .100cr to krna chahiye lifetime 😀

  19. Bored 11 years ago

    Terrible! This make OUATIMA look good … didnt think that was possible till yesterday.

  20. Baba Ji 11 years ago

    a regular rohit shetty film. action scenes will be OTT as usual. srk acting seems avg., but i liked deepika

  21. Sunil 11 years ago

    Rohit Shetty copied welcome story here.This is a already made action masala film.Many scenes of this film are copied from other films.The film wont be as good as this trailer.
    ce will gross 130 cr max because of the holiday release.

  22. syed imran 11 years ago

    good one bt honestly nt dat great …. mayb rohit has left the best parts of the film for the audiences to watch… still it will be a treat to watch SRK in such avatar… like or not like the trailer, the movie will definitely open big and then the rest content will decide its fate…

  23. syed imran 11 years ago

    bt yes definitely better than Akshay’s OUATIM2…

  24. syed imran 11 years ago

    by the way such negative comments on SRK’s new movie trailer was as usual expected from the haters… nothing new abt it.. jalte hain log jalne do, chennai express to OUATIM2 ko jala kar rakh kar degi…wait and watch haters..

  25. syed imran 11 years ago

    and yes i love wen haters post negative comments on SRK movie/performance/personality etc etc.. bcoz this makes him more bigger and bigger and i start loving him more, really… aadmi se log zyada tab hi jalte hain jab woh zyaada oonchai par pahuchta hain…let it keep coming haters, we love ur negative comments..

  26. Kunaal Kohli 11 years ago

    Good trailer. best wishes to SRK, Rohit, Deepika & all unit of CE.

  27. Kunaal Kohli 11 years ago

    I was totally disappointed to see ouatima trailer and thought what will I do this eid but now see the trailer of chennai express I am very happy I’ll go for the movie first day first show. I’ll take rest in IInd week and after that I’ll go for the movie Satyagarah. Thank u SRK, Thank u Rohit, Thank u Deepika, Thank u UTV.

  28. Kunaal Kohli 11 years ago

    Blockbuster all the way. Deepika Padukone is so cute, also shahrukh is dashing. Can’t wait to see CE now, the wait is killing me.

  29. Kunaal Kohli 11 years ago

    akshay SIR is scared to release his movies on non holidays. All his recent movies were only non-holidays still all of them barely reached 65 crore +. This time there is no open second week. It would not gross more than khiladi 786 which was a non-holiday release, despite independence day week. And I think also akshay kumar SIR is more scared than ekta since his movies never worked when released alongside SRK’s movies.

  30. krish saini 11 years ago

    Jab SRK Superhero ban sakta hai Toh Akshay Gangster kyu nahi??

  31. Kunaal Kohli 11 years ago

    akshay SIR fans shocking! Big trouble for akshay SIR. Since Satyagraha releases on 23rd Aug and ouatima is sandwiched between 2 big films.

  32. Kunaal Kohli 11 years ago

    breaking news or shocking news or one more tuglaki decision!

    Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobara: Title changed!

    We’ve just been informed that the title of Milan Luthria’s ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Again’ has been changed to ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobara’. The film will release in theatres on August 15th 2013 (Independence day release).

    “Yes, the movie has been renamed as ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobara’ and it will be released on Aug 15″ Girish Johar, Head of Distribution and Acquisition, Balaji Motion Pictures, confirmed.

    Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobara, starring Akshay Kumar, Sonakshi Sinha, Imran Khan and Sonali Bendre. The film that was initially set to clash against Chennai Express, was postponed by a week to avoid the clash.

    Apparently, Shahrukh Khan spoke to Jeetendra and a meeting was held between Jeetendra, UTV and Shahrukh to resolve the situation, and find a win-win situation for all.

    “Keeping in mind that both weekends (Eid and Independence day) are good times for film releases, Jeetendra sir being the senior most showed the path. He took the decision to move OUATIM Dobara to 15th August. This is extremely graceful of him. UTV, Rohit and I are very happy with the decision made and we thank Jeetu sir and Balaji for the same. This should pave the way for such mature and sensible amicable understandings whenever two films release on the same day in future too,” says Shah Rukh Khan.

    “My father and Shahrukh spoke and have clearly worked out what is best for both the films. Both are big and keenly awaited and should not be made to eat into each other’s business. I have huge respect for SRK and wish him the best,” says Ekta Kapoor.

  33. Kunaal Kohli 11 years ago

    Still I’m expecting 160 crore +. Trailer is also good. Hope a good start and respectable end. About akshay he is fattu and I don’t want to say anymore. Otherwise sputnik SIR can ban me.

    disappointed with the trailer, is it khiladi 786 again?

  36. Baba 11 years ago

    if the voice is not dubbed (which i have huge doubts over) i think deepika is very sincere here. her accent may not be perfect tamilian but it shows good commitment from an actor. even in a normal random dialogue “kahan se khareedi aisi bakwaas dictionary”she cud hv said this normally and it wudnt hv mattered for this kind of light film but it shows sincerity of an actor.juhi played a tamil girl in hhrpk but hardly spoke in the accent, she played it safe. farhan in BMB is speaking like imran of znmd instead of a sikh! also liked the fact that she didnt need to expose in this film and she has not.

    • Author
      sputnik 11 years ago

      I think her voice is dubbed too. If she indeed modulated her voice then its great even if she did not get the Tamil accent right.

      @Anjanpur685Miles,
      I don’t think its Hyderabadi accent.

      • Baba 11 years ago

        i agree. its nothing like hyd accent. if you want to see hyd accent, watch lectures of akbar owaishi. authentic hyd accent 😀

  37. Anjanpur685Miles 11 years ago

    Yes I know its not typical hyderabadi but more inclined towards that than any other mallu,tamil or kannadiga..thats why I said “types”.

    @Baba, as much as u r comparing farhan, other actors and actresses, this too is way off the mark. but yes – she looks fresh and is funny. I liked that dialogue.

    • Baba 11 years ago

      ritz – there is a sincere attempt here. in other cases, they avoided the risk completely.

  38. Bored 11 years ago

    Wont be surprised if south Indians find this caricutures quite insulting! Is it SRK’s way of getting back to Salman’s reverence for South Indian movies???

    • Baba 11 years ago

      if south indians dont find their own actors caricatuirsh who do all sorts of low brow caricaturish and offensive cinema then i dont think they should complain much from CE just bcos a north actor is doing the same 😉

  39. ank_16n 11 years ago

    BTW @Baba
    u must be feeling sad that Deepika is fully clothed here at last 😀

    • Baba 11 years ago

      no i am happy finally she is not exposing in a film where its not needed. no chaddis for once 😉

      • ank_16n 11 years ago

        never say never u might see Deepika in a lungi of same length 😆

  40. Aditya007 11 years ago

    Iss trailer main to yeh seedhe ‘F’ per chale gaye, woh bina chaddi…………

  42. Nilda 11 years ago

    Did not find the trailer bad specially if compared to OUATIMA. This is atleast true to its ‘Rohit Shetty’ genre. Whereas, OUATIMA is supposed to be a gangster movie but looks like a romantic saga.

    For the first time liked Dipika. SRK looks disconnected with the character.

  43. Bored 11 years ago

    I doubt whether CE or UOATIMA can be the answer to the ‘Ranbir threat’ from SRK or AkshYJHD crossed 150 cr and may touch 175 cr by the end of its run.

  44. sauravjha 11 years ago

    Liked the trailer. SRK is looking fresh and good, found Deepika actually funny rest is very Rohit Shettyish. Overall good !

  45. Serenzy 11 years ago

    My Views on CE Trailer :-

    I thought the Trailer was Strictly Below-Average.
    Not a SINGLE SCENE made me go ROFL.!

    Editing of the Trailer is downright Pathetic.

    Deepika Padukone dominated the proceedings and Shah Rukh looked a tad bit out of place.
    His ‘Ram’ Character is that typical ‘filmy’ character that has tiffs/silly arguments with Dippy’s Character all the time, to create some laughs in the 1st half but eventually falls for her and saves her from all the Goondas.

    .

    Having said that, Shetty Movies have never been about the Trailers anytime.
    It’s always about that Popcorn Entertainment in those 2-odd hours and it worked well for me with Golmaal-1, Singham, ATB and BB.

    So judging CE from the trailers would be Harsh and Silly.

    Expecting some Quirky “Shetty Style” Characters and CHARTBUSTER Songs.

    ps: OUATIMA Trailer was Better wrt CE.

    • mate 11 years ago

      “Shah Rukh looked a tad bit out of place.”
      @serenzy bro
      Very well said, I totally agree with you. Whatever you have said is quite accurate as he does look out of place but the thing you missed is that he ought to look out of place as the script demanded it, because he is the only non-tamilian character in the movie. You said what you feel, though unintentionally but you hit the mark perfectly, just proves how dedicated SRK is with his work.
      About the trailer, It’s one’s personal choice whether he likes/dislikes but one thing is sure, that editing is the best part of this trailer.

  46. ank_16n 11 years ago

    ” Editing of the Trailer is downright Pathetic.”

    serenzy ur and mine views are very similar i commented the same thing about CE trailer on NG ..!!

    moreover bro his name in the movie is Rahul not Ram….yeah it sound more like ram but listen carefully its Rahul 🙂

  47. FS 11 years ago

    Why don’t srk have a beard in his films? With beard he looks good but without he looks like a Gay.

    & whats with that luggage carrying scene? does he need to repeat in almost all his films?

    Saw the trailer again & Deepika is simply outstanding.

  48. Anjanpur685Miles 11 years ago

    Saw the trailer again. I agree Deepika is damn good…liked it more this time. And her accent now sounds more Mallu to me ..”Kompazh” gaaon and other couple of pronunciations (when she tells her father is a don “periyathalai” ). She doesnt go “illai” but says “ille”. But its OK – she is fine.

    I forgot to mention Kalaripayattu in my above comment though I did notice it – again Kerala. But its ok as its Rohit Shetty movie and you dont expect perfection.

    I think I will enjoy this movie like I did Golmaal3. Lesser the expectations its better for the film.

    Only issue I have is the train journey and fun should be more than the romantic scenes and fights shown at the end of the trailer. A hell lot of funny sequences can be created based on train journey on that route – based on languages, people, traditions etc. I would have very much liked such a movie in that mould – just a chatpati story of a train journey sans all the rona-dhona and action.

    • FS 11 years ago

      If a RJ wants to mimic Malabari’s (Malyalam/Keralites) and host a show in that accent then he/she do sound exactly the same as of Deepika in CE. It’s a comical take on Tamilians (who also sound familiar to Malabari’s) trying to speaking hindi and I am not at all disappointed with the way she delivers her dialogue.

  49. Anjanpur685Miles 11 years ago

    And that “fucks” dialogue really sucks. This is a family entertainer na Mr Shetty!

    Official Synopsis

    ‘Chennai Express’ is the story of a 40 year old bachelor Rahul, who lands up in a totally unexpected journey that makes him realize the importance of Love, Life, Relationships and Sacrifice!

    A stimulating train voyage that not only takes Rahul, accidentally to his destination but also makes him realize the power of True Love!

    A hilarious journey which teaches you about the serious relationships in life.

  51. mate 11 years ago

    Now It’s clear that Eid may also fall on Saturday (10th August) If Ramadhan will be of 30 days (that is more likely). So in that case, first two days will be like normal days. I personally think they should release it on 9th August, that looks more beneficial because If Eid lies on 9th of August, then a record-breaking day 1 be guaranteed, and If Eid lies on 10th of August then it’s like a normal 3-day weekend with a benefit of an extra holiday. Releasing on 8th might have some benefit in case of 29 days Ramadhan.

    There was Baadshah wherein SRK was so funny and had perfect comic timing.
    And then now there is this CE … its pity to see what has happened to his sense of humor/timing.

    • Author
      sputnik 11 years ago

      Agree.

      And why is he doing his trademark pose even in those comedy scenes?

    • ank_16n 11 years ago

      u just nailed it with baadshah comparison in baadshah his comic timing was just perfect…then with phir bhi dil hai hindustani n 12ka 4 it became little over the top…but looking at these promos n faces he is making it seems over the top is not enough to define it..!!

  56. mate 11 years ago

    SRK is really pushing some barriers here, a true versatile actor of his generation. I really can’t imagine any superstar of the current crop to have such a brilliant comic timing.
    After Sanjay Mishra in All The Best, this is the second time I find any actor unintentionally funny, pitching dialogues so perfectly without sacrificing the acting quality under the direction of the Rohit Shetty. This is another thing, many thought the act of the former a case of highly dosed ‘over-acting’ but for me that was one of the best comic performance in the past decade, but off-course he had a minor role that was gone totally un-noticed because the supporters of so-called ‘natural’ acting have the same tool to measure the acting abilities for any genre.
    In my view, If an actor makes a rather stronger impact (either by the exaggeration of expressions or by some other techniques) without being awkward, that is a much better act than those numerous ‘natural’ acts that are being repeated by an actor in each and every movie irrespective of the genre. But It doesn’t mean you make a mockery of this Art by doing some ridiculous stuff, for e.g. Ghajini hero.

    • phoenix 11 years ago

      I think natural acting is suitable for scripts that have casual conversations and normal situations, whereas little exaggerations work for most commercial scripts that have dramatic situations. People with narrow understanding of this often confuse the required amount of loudness to overacting. Gajini overacting was probably required for a movie with that much drama quiotent.

      • stewie griffin 11 years ago

        i think for commercial movies a bit of exaggeration is necessary..lekin itna bhi na karo ki it looks like theatre ka acting..where everything is superexaggerated..and some of the scenes here are way too theaterish..however nothing srk tries will ever outdo duplicate..i can’t stand tht movie

  57. Anjanpur685Miles 11 years ago

    @mate

    do you know meaning of “unintentional” ?
    Or you are intentionally ignorant and partial.

  58. Anjanpur685Miles 11 years ago

    @Sputnik

    “And why is he doing his trademark pose even in those comedy scenes?”

    Well, my gut feeling is this movie is made by SRK just for the sake of it. He told Rohit to write a movie for him just to get a hit in mass circuits. Rohit went with SRK’s word and wrote something half baked.. and directed as well ..in awe of srk. I think Rohit might fail here.

    But I will be glad if proven wrong – as Golmaal3 and Singham were such a fun – especially watching with kids.

    • Author
      sputnik 11 years ago

      Well SRK already accepted that in the “Shah Rukh Khan teaches how to be a Superstar – Rohit Shetty Style” posted above that if you want a hit you star in a Rohit Shetty movie.

      I liked Golmaal 1 and All the Best a lot. Liked last 10-15 min and bits of Golmaal 2. Liked one scene of Golmaal 3. Did not like Singham and Bol Bachchan.

  59. FS 11 years ago

    Lol donkey scene is gud but his trademark style part is pathetic

  60. phoenix 11 years ago

    Judging the negative reactions I thought SRK has tried the kind of hamming he did in Duplicate. After watching the video it I am convinced that SRK can never outdo Duplicate. Aint that bad. I never had any hope for Chennai Express. The last day videos are funny however.

  61. Aditya007 11 years ago

    Pathetic !
