Chandni Chowk to China,
the first ever Bollywood Kungfu comedy takes you on a
madcap journey from the by-lanes of Chandni Chowk in
Delhi, to Shanghai, the Great Wall and rural China,
marrying in its wake hilarious gags, breathtaking
action, spectacular locations and heart stirring
emotions.
The protagonist Sidhu (Akshay Kumar) is the lowest on
the totem pole, cutting vegetables at a road side food
stall in Chandni Chowk in Delhi. He longs to escape
his dreary existence and looks for shortcuts- with
astrologers, tarot readers, & fake fakirs- basically
believing anything except himself, despite his father
figure Dada`s (Mithun Chakravorty) best efforts. His
redeeming moment arrives when two strangers from China
claim him as a reincarnation of a war hero in the past
and take him to China.
Sidhu now dreams of
wine, women and a princely existence in foreign lands.
Thanks to the devious translator, a conman by the name
Chopstick (Ranvir Shorey), little does he know that he
is being taken to the promised land to rid the Chinese
village of the vicious smuggler Hojo (Gordon Liu)! So
Sidhu blissfully sets forth to China with Chopstick
who instigates dreams of a delicious future and
forgets to reveal the perils which await him. Along
the way he meets Sakhi (Deepika Padukone), Ms. Tele
Shoppers Media (Ms TSM) who has embarked on a journey
to pay homage to the land of her birth and her dead
father and twin.
Initially Sidhu
through a series of lucky coincidences manages to
sidestep being beaten by Hojo`s men but finally Hojo
catches up with him and exposes him as the country
buffoon that he really is. Sidhu has the fire of
revenge in his belly and finds the one man who will
make him a Kungfu expert and set the village free.
Armed with his Sifu(master), faith in himself and the
love of the fair Sakhi Sidhu sets forth to conquer
all!
