Nikhil Advani is to blame for the CC2C debacle, the same film would do well with a bit of tightening up loose ends and re-releasing in a shorter version. Like Salaam-e-Ishq, the songs are nice yet on screen execution is poor.
‘Chandni Chowk To China’ may not have taken a huge opening as was expected out of it. However, a large section of media has chosen to target Akshay Kumar and have started writing obituaries about him. Unreasonable as it may sound; the backlash seems to be completely uncalled for, especially for a man who till about a fortnight back was hailed as 'the darling of the masses'. Vipul Shah, Akshay's friend, director and producer, gets into a freewheeling chat with Joginder Tuteja and shares his views about the reasons that have perhaps led to such 'venom being spewed on Akshay Kumar' (in his own language). Over to Vipul!

You should see the movie and then you will also have a mission to "Kill Akshay". I wander what made Warner Bros. produce this, may be they are too Stupid or too desperate to enter into Bollywood.

Vipul Shah has proved to be a "a friend in need a friend indeed."
His support is coz he has got films starring Akshay.And also Akki gave him superhits in the past.He desperstely needs to defend Akki's image to save his upcoming movie.
Both Akshay Kumar & SRK should have been sent to Mental Hospital & their brains should be tested by the doctors. They should be kept under observation of Serious Doctors. They should to sent to Mental Assiylam.
this reviewer is the worst crappiest most unreliable reviewer in india the picture which he goves bad ratings turn out to great hits remember bhulbhulaiya just a star by raja sharukh sen/khan
its a gr8 movie people the production cost is great akshays acting is gr8 deepikas looks r gr8 cinematography is gr8 stunts are gr8 comic timing rocks what do u need more for a hindi movie
Mumbai, January 20: Chandni Chowk To China may not have taken a huge opening as was expected out of it. However, a large section of media has chosen to target Akshay Kumar and have started writing obituaries about him. Unreasonable as it may sound; the backlash seems to be completely uncalled for, especially for a man who till about a fortnight back was hailed as 'the darling of the masses'. Vipul Shah, Akshay's friend, director and producer, gets into a freewheeling chat with Joginder Tuteja and shares his views about the reasons that have perhaps led to such 'venom being spewed on Akshay Kumar' (in his own language). Over to Vipul!Mission 'Target Akshay'"I think the only thing that Akshay has done wrong is that he has never been a part of any camp. He has never picked up any favorites with media or has tied up with journalists (it's a shame that some of them are called journalists). Unfortunately he is not a part of any politics and believes in the policy of 'do your work and go home'. Today, when people are getting an opportunity to tarnish and target him, he doesn't have people to defend him. Everyone is clearly having a field day."All HITS forgotten?"And by the way, why are we forgetting that he is the same man who in the last 3 years has seen 21 films of his getting released out of which 17 have been hits. He is the most consistent actor, star and a lot more than that.Just because one film of his doesn't take a kick start as expected, people out there have star
