No need to make pirated CDs.. The official DVDs will be out in a week, or one of the TV channels will be airing it soon. That's how BAD the movie is. Akshay hams his way through.. and Nikhil Advani shows that Kal Ho Na Ho was a flash in the pan. His deterioration started with the multi-star nonsense, Salaam E Ishq, and the streak continues... What a useless movie!
Chandni Chowk to China is to Akshay just as Guddu and Baadshah were to Shah Rukh Khan; Mela and Mann were to Aamir Khan and ALL his movies in 2008 were to Salman Khan. Time for some introspection...
I am looking forward to Nagesh Kukunoor's film with Akshay. Hope he redeems himself with that film.

Well said, Ratan. Time Akshay stopped his buffoonery and did a Taare Zameen Par or Chak De India for he is talented. Can not bring Salman to the subject as he is a no brainer.

Mann and Badshah were good in parts and enjoyable. Mangal Pandey and Ashoka were the bad apples. Akki has no script sense. At his age, he should do serious movies with some message.

Dear Warner Brothers, Please hold the prints close to your chest and sleep well. You see the reports of the film and the Directors credibility is so bad that nobody is going to bother pirating it.. Hold your horses and your guns..
One of the worst movies that i have ever seen.Had such a headache after coming out of the theater.First time I agree with Raja Sen completely.Zero stars from me
I have been told by an avid south indian movie watcher that this is yet another remake of a mohanlal starer in malyalam.And the shameless producers say they want to protect the copywright. I hope bollywood focusses less on glamour & more on original creativity & subtance.

It is - Its almost a remake of mallu movie 'Yodha' which was starred by Mohanlal.
The story of the movie is as follows: The movie stars the Malayalam superstar Mohanlal as Ashokan, who is a village fellow who is always in competition with his cousin Appukkuttan played by the comedy actor Jagathi Sreekumar. Urvashi and Madhoo, play the lead female roles. The movie goes on as Ashokan is sent to Nepal to meet his uncle as an astrologer predicts that if he stays at home, he will commit a murder. Once there, he finds that Appukuttan has already reached there claiming that he was Ashokan. There, he loses his luggage and is shunned off to streets where he is joined by the Rinpoche, the Sacred Boy of one of the monasteries, who escaped from his tormentors. The evil forces try to kidnap the child, and Mohanlal is drawn into the fight. When he realises that he is ready to take on the forces of evil with some help from the Buddist monks. The preparations of the evil to get hold of the Lama’s powers has already begun! At the same time, Appukuttan who had been following him is caught by the tribals.....it is the war between the good and evil..... ( Source Wikipedia)

In addition, in this movie the role carried out by mohanlal is considered to be re-incarnation, who is destined to save the lama kid. He learns the fight, :) blind folded too to save the kid.

You are talking about Yudh or Yodha..I have seen this movie. CC2C does not look to be a remake of it. Paap was the remake of the movie you are suggesting. The malayalam movie was inturn a remake of a harrison for movie. I dont remember the name though. I think its witness or something. may be I am wrong.

And that was a movie starring Eddie Murphy (not Harrison Ford)
