What's it about: Before the release of CPD, Shahid Kapur went around town claiming the movie resembled his real life struggle in the film industry.

If that's the case, the actor definitely had a stinky time before he hit stardom. Sameer (Shahid) is stuck in the rut, wanting to be an actor but shuffling between jobs to make ends meet. Everything in this flick happens by chance, including Tina's (Genelia) bumping into Sameer.



The boy's luck doesn't quite favour him and in stead of auditions, he's stuck picking couriers and teaching dance to a bunch of school kids! More of a dance video and less of a film, the story moves at its own pace with frequent flashes of Shahid's eight-pack!

What's hot: Though you've seen it all before, it's Shahid and Genelia's chemistry that breathes life into the predictable proceedings.

The songs might not be chartbusters, but their treatment and the camerawork make them stand out. Shahid has a certain earnest appeal that he uses to his advantage.

Not to forget he's easily one of the most confident dancers in the industry. He touches a chord in the scene where he breaks down in frustration.

The length of the film works in its advantage, not stretching it to the point of irritation.

Genelia is easy on the eyes, not so much on the ears though. She sounds screechy in parts and brings back her Jaane Tu expressions when all else fails.
