More
than
two
years
back,
Govinda
had
attempted
a
comeback
with
Priyadarshan
film
Bhagam
Bhag.
The
much
hyped
comeback
wasn't
the
kind
that
Govinda
would
have
anticipated.
Akshay
Kumar
walked
away
with
the
meatiest
chunks
and
Govinda
had
to
wait
for
Salaam-E-Ishq
and
then
Partner
to
get
back
into
the
reckoning.
In
the
meantime
he
signed
another
Priyadarshan
film
titled
Chal
Chala
Chal.
However,
this
time
around,
the
film
was
only
being
presented
by
him
(along
with
Suneil
Shetty)
while
Rajiv
Kumar
was
roped
in
to
direct
it.
The
film
took
quite
some
time
to
reach
the
finishing
line
and
while
it
should
have
released
at
least
a
year
back
(there
was
also
some
publicity
in
the
interim,
only
to
be
held
back
since
there
was
no
definite
release
date
round
the
corner),
Chal
Chala
Chal
is
now
arriving
this
Friday
without
any
fanfare
whatsoever.
Says
an
industry
follower,
''It
is
obvious
that
the
film
is
being
released
just
for
the
sake
of
it.
The
makers
have
to
get
it
over
with
because
K
Sera
Sera,
the
banner
under
which
the
film
arrives,
is
looking
at
regrouping
itself
with
the
release
of
this
film
and
gets
back
into
the
business
of
making
films.
Though
no
one
in
the
trade
is
hopeful
of
the
prospects
of
this
film,
even
the
makers
aren't
going
ahead
with
a
whole
hearted
promotion.''
The
film
stars
Raima
Sen
opposite
Govinda
and
features
the
comedy
brigade
comprising
of
Rajpal
Yadav,
Razzak
Khan,
Manoj
Joshi
and
Upasana
Singh.
Om
Puri
and
Asrani,
the
usual
suspects
in
a
Priyadarshan
film,
also
have
a
role
to
play
in
this
laugh
show.
Arriving
on
6th
February,
Chal
Chala
Chal
sees
competition
from
the
likes
of
Dev
D
and
Mere
Khwabon
Mein
Jo
Aaye.
Of
course
Dev
D
appears
to
be
the
best
bet
amongst
the
three
films
with
Mere
Khwabon
Mein
Jo
Aaye
too
trying
its
luck
at
the
box
office.
Meanwhile
Chal
Chala
Chal
arrives
with
zero
buzz
and
doesn't
stand
any
chance
whatsoever
to
make
an
impression
amongst
the
audience.
