Cast: Anuuj,Udita Goswami,Samir Kochchar,Tarina Patel,Gulshan Grover,Aditya Raj Kapoor Director: : Jag Mundhra Rating: * Last week,Jag Mundhra unleashed 'The Apartment upon us. Barely had we recovered,hes back with 'Chase. A suspected terrorist is on the run and everyone is after him. Thats why,dear readers,the film is called what it is. The film opens with Sohail Ansari ( Anuuj) vrroooming off on a motorcycle. Hes got a helmet on his head. That is enough reason for the cops to surmise that he is a terrorist : how they come to such a conclusion is never revealed. The man on the fast bike is taken,comatose,to a hospital. Says the head doctor : behosh nahin hai,unko locked-in syndrome hai. Huh? More mysteries abound. The resident nurse wears tight uniforms which never reach her knees. Said nurse ( Goswami) suspects that the suspected terrorist is faking it. To that end,she dons skimpy lingerie and twirls around the injured mans bed,clutching a sheet to her largely bare chest whenever she gets an attack of coyness. Says visiting hunky cop to gyrating nurse : yeh kaam nahi,kaamasutra lag raha thaa. Meanwhile,another set of legs-and-bosom ( Patel) shows up,claiming to be girl friend of vegetative man. Theres also a recording of a murder,and whoever gets their hand on it will win the chase. More bad guys crop up. So does an evil businessman ( Kapoor). This last worthy is the reason why 'Chase may be of interest to those interested in trivia : Aditya Raj Kapoor is the legendary Yahoo boy Shammis middle-aged son,making a splash in the movies. Only if you know will you notice the resemblance. Hes a pale copy of his flamboyant father. All we can say is that we wish he had desisted. shubhra.gupta@expressindia.com
