subhakam A grossly over rated movie with real awful acting from Kareena and big disappointment from Rahul Bose. The narration tries too hard to drive the script, where as the screen play withers away in the first 15 mins of the movie.The director should definitely give more thoughts as to how to progress a story and make it more realistic, and pace the movie better.Story seems awfully made for family audience, a prostitute and wealthy man combination.. hard to imagine not a single scene depicts any depth to the character or story. Another annoying part is the director deals with issue like homosexual attraction ( the guy and the enuch),AIDS etc in very light passing shades of grey and trys to depict the streets of mumbai in an extremely clean slate. Common folks who are we kidding?? Over all 3/10Subhakam

Vikas SS Summary: Investment Banker Aman (Rahul Bose) on his way from a party in a stormy night gets stranded in one of Mumbai's not-so-decent places. He then, encounters Chameli (Kareena Kapoor) who is a prostitute. Aman who is new to this other face of Mumbai faces new challenges hitherto unknown in his high-profile life.Comment: Although he story is fair, what is more important in the movie is the characterisation. Rahul Bose seems to repeat his role from 'Mumbai Matinée'; only this time he is richer and more sophisticated. In fact, it would be better to say that he has repeated his roles of both 'Mumbai Matinée' and 'Mr & Mr Iyer'. The common thread in all these three movies of his is that the conclusion is seen only in the last few frames of the movie.Kareena has stolen the show with her stunning performance. From the bubbly character of poo in K3g, this role is far away from it and Kareena has put life into the character. There is a mention of Umrao Jaan and Chandramukhi (of devdas fame) in the movie. Probably one can say that Umrao Jaan, Chandramukhi and Chameli are the similar character shown in three different generations and settings.The chemistry between the characters has been portrayed well. Although to some extent it may seem difficult to believe an investment banker falling in love with a Prostitute; well, thats the directorial licence to say "Life's like that". Well in one line, it is a movie worth watching.

sandeep-bapat i think this is the best low budget movie i have seen for a long time. The story is very simple but the director has presented it in a very refreshing manner. The acting is good. Rahul Bose is excellent as usual. Kareena surprisingly has given a good performance. All the supporting actors are also good. I don't know why the directors in India don't make more such movies. I think there should be a quality board for Hindi cinema which monitors the quality of movies. Movies like "Ab Bas" should not be allowed. I think bollywood should try to find a right mix between movies like Devdas and Chameli. And perhaps make movies like "LAGAAN" in every 5 years.

movie_3 I have seen this movie recently. And it seems to me that it is really different movie from typical bollywood films. The script & direction of this movie is really brilliant and worth of praising. Rahul bosh as Aman Kapoor & bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor as Chameli played their roles successfully. Especially I recommend Kareena Kapoor for her wonderful acting in this movie as a prostitute named 'Chameli'. I recommend this movie to watch who likes different type of films. I rate this movie 10/10. The movie is really excellent.
