movie review : Chak de India

Refreshing because girls are shown to be fighting for themselves no one else and Shahrukh has resisted temptation of overacting. Shilpa Shukla was terrific as Bindiya while kamal chautala was also good. Preeti sabarwal had stony face. Hockey officials were quite realistic and i was amazed to see girls playing decent hockey as normally in Indian sports movie they never show front shot of the players. No doubt Australian location was used to its best. Editing is good but at some places screenplay leaves a lot to be desired. One puzzling thing was girls are not shown practicing on AstroTurf. Secondly Indian hockey team now a days is only Jharkhand-orissa and Punjab-Chandigarh with one or two from manipur. Tribal girls of orissa and Jharkhand have come up like anything in this sport and credit goes to tata academy.
