That Game Of Chess, a film inspired by Mahatma Gandhi's preaching and his three promises which he made to his Mother when he was going to England for higher studies. In the plethora of various Bollywood Crossover films depicting the repeated parental disapproval of inter-racial relationships, comes a movie with a new and refreshing theme. This movie portrays the trials and tribulations of Rahul, a twenty something ambitious Indian guy, who travels from his motherland to the land of opportunity,

So unconvincingly played and poorly crafted that it's checkmate from the first move.
Sometimes a movie is so amateurish, you don't know whether to hate it or feel sorry for it. That Game of Chess, a Bollywood crossover co-written by and starring Viresh Sinha, falls into the latter category.
Visually, the film displays no zest or inventiveness whatsoever, though the actors manage, most of the time, to read their dialog audibly.
As an immigrant Indian , I totally could relate to the movie...although the protagonist is male but still it was a kind of flashback of my own story of leaving india and settling down in US...protagonist is the guy next door...no depiction of larger than life character...recommend to watch ...check it out !!
