"Come, Fall in Love" in Rohit Shetty SHTYLE !!!
For once, I am actually very happy with the way a movie is marketed. There is no misbranding here. An SRK starrer romance & a Rohit Shetty action-packed comedy. Put these two together and what you get is 'Chennai Express'.
But, I must confess that I was the least thrilled by the trailer of Chennai Express. I expected it to be another loud, irksome comedy. In other words, a total disaster like 'Tees Maar Khan'. In fact, even a few minutes after the movie started, I was fully convinced that all I am going to write in this review is bad stuff. But the fact that in next few paragraphs you are actually going to read a lot more positive stuff means that somewhere down the line the crazy mad comedy wins over and manages to tickle one's funny bone.
Agreed, that its a "logic put aside" film but its a thorough entertainer. You should not expect anything substantial in terms of story as Rahul & Meenamma themselves sing their way to the glory warning us of this "Kahaani Bedhangi"!
Yes, you have SRK introducing himself as "Rahul, Naam To Suna Hi Hoga" for the umpteenth time, making the girl fall in love with him on an adventure trip of its own kind when she is already engaged to someone else, singing & dancing to the tunes in his signature King Khan step. Throw in some Rohit Shetty trademark action sequences, cars in hues of pink & orange blowing off in the air and a funny script. 'Chennai Express' offers all of this and a lot more.
More?
Deepika Padukone! She is such a revelation in 'Chennai Express'.

Thalaiva Meaning
Thalaiva is nothing but the same as Thalaivar, which in Tamil means a leader, boss, and is spoken for Rajinikanth with respect, like 'sir'.
The word comes from 'Thala' which means head, and means the one who heads people, hence leader.
The word is shown in Chennai Express' Lungi Dance song which is supposedly a dedication to Rajnikanth Ji.

Honey Singh's Lungi Dance: Lyrics and Translation
Lungi Dance is a latest single by Honey Singh and seems he's readily took it out after the rumor that he'd be rapping with SPB for Chennai Express and Shekhar's [of Vishal-Shekhar] denial on the same. As such the single is supposed to be 'A tribute to Rajnikant Ji', some of the lines may even be offensive to South Indians, like Coconut in Lassi, probably not intentionally though. Anyway, here is a translation of the lyrics of the song.
Eer lungi, King Khan
Yo yo honey singh
Moochhon ko thoda round ghumaa ke
Annaa ke jaisaa chashmaa lagaa ke
Coconut mein lassi milaa ke
Aa jao saare mood bana ke..
Turning the mustaches a little round (on corners)
putting on a pair of shades like Anna
[Many senior South Indian stars are called Anna as the word is used to address elder brother in Tamil and most other South Indian languages too.]
Mixing coconut in Lassi,
Come all, in a good mood..
Eer lungi, King Khan
Yo yo honey singh
Moochhon ko thoda round ghumaa ke
Annaa ke jaisaa chashmaa lagaa ke
Coconut mein lassi milaa ke
Aa jao saare mood bana ke..
Turning the mustaches a little round (on corners)
putting on a pair of shades like Anna
[Many senior South Indian stars are called Anna as the word is used to address elder brother in Tamil and most other South Indian languages too.]
Mixing coconut in Lassi,
Come all, in a good mood..
Kashmir Main Tu Kanyakumari: Lyrics Translation [Chennai Express]
Movie: Chennai Express [All Song Translations]
Music: Vishal-Shekhar
Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya
Singers: Arijit Singh, Sunidhi Chauhan, Neeti Mohan
Chipak-chipak kay chaltee hain kabhi-kabhi do raahein
Jude-jude kuchh aise ki lagaa ho jaise gum
Double-double hotee thi jo kabhi-kabhi takleefein
Kisi ke sang mein chalne say hui half se kam
Teraa meraa meraa teraa, tera mera mera tera kissaa atrangee
Kabhi-kabhi chaltee hai kabhi-kabhi ruktee kahaani bedhangee
Sometimes, two paths go sticking to each other, [in parallel]
Sticking as if there is gum between them,
Sometimes when the troubles used to be double,
They have become less than half [as troubling] with someone walking together..
Yours n mine, mine n yours, our story is colorful..
Sometimes it goes, and sometimes stops, our strange story..
Music: Vishal-Shekhar
Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya
Singers: Arijit Singh, Sunidhi Chauhan, Neeti Mohan

Teraa meraa meraa teraa, tera mera mera tera kissaa atrangee

Ready Steady Po Meaning
Did you Mean: Ready Steady Go
Well, that's what Google used to say until a few days ago. Before that, it used to straight away send you to the meaning of Ready Steady Go, thinking you typed a letter wrong.
And of course, Google is never wrong. ;) Yes, Po is Tamil for 'Go', and hence, Ready Steady Po means nothing other than Ready, Steady, Go. That is the reason Rohit Shetty has made it the catch-phrase of his movie, as the bike, that is, Chennai Express, will be run saying 'Ready Steady Po'.
Want an added meaning? Po-da is one of the most common phrases in Tamil, where da doesn't really mean anything, and the phrase would translate to something of the sort as 'Hey go man!'

Chennai Express: The Honey Singh Drama
I was surprised, and not pleasantly, when I heard Yo Yo Honey Singh was singing for Vishal-Shekhar in Chennai Express.
I am not against Honey Singh's rapping style. He's a talented guy who does sing well. But I have never liked the person that Honey Singh is, simply because of the way he deals with and talks about girls. So I was surprised, or say, shocked, when I heard Vishal-Shekhar, who have been known for their character more than their music, with especially Vishal, who is so vocal for social issues, are getting Honey Singh to sing for them. That too, with none other than SPB. Truth be told, I couldn't believe this.
For some time, I was thinking of asking Vishal and Shekhar on Twitter if this was really true, when I found out that the reports about Honey Singh singing for the movie were false, and apparently Shekhar himself made that clear.
That's great. Thanks V-S. Never mind Yo-Yo. I hope you too will leave the days of your bad name behind and be good someday soon.
Update: As you probably know already, Honey Singh is singing Lungi Dance in Chennai Express. In the words of an anonymous commenter, that's a big slap on my face. Not sure, though I hated the song like anything. Still, it's there on BollyMeaning. Btw, it's supposed to be a tribute to Rajinikanth Ji. I wonder if someone has asked the superstar how he liked it.
Update: As expected, this seems to have created an issue between Vishal-Shekhar and Shahrukh Khan, and the duo, originally the judges of Indian Idol Junior, were not present at the show in the episode where Shahrukh Khan came to promote Chennai Express.

Ban ke titli dil uda hai kahin door: Lyrics Translation [Chennai Express]
Movie: Chennai Express
Music: Vishal Dadlani-Shekhar Ravjiani
Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya
Singers: Chinmayi Sripada, Gopi Sunder
Music of Chennai Express comes as a mixture of North and South Indian singers, as Vishal-Shekhar take Yo Yo Honey Singh to SPB, interestingly the two of them being in one song. In the same spirit, Vishal-Shekhar get AR Rahman's regular, Chinmayi, to sing for them this time, along with Gopi Sunder, who is a music composer for southern movies. As such Gopi has worked for Vishal-Shekhar as a keyboard programmer, though, with Chinmayi it's probably their first association.
Ban ke titli dil udaa udaa
udaa hai kaheen door
Chal ke khushboo se judaa
judaa judaa hai kahin door
haadse ye kaise, ansune se jaise,
Choome andheron ko, koi noor..
ban ke titlee dil udaa udaa
uda hai kahin door..
Becoming a butterfly, the heart has
taken a flight.. has flown somewhere far away..
How are these accidents, unheard,
As if some (divine) light kisses the dark..
becoming a butterfly,
the heart has taken a flight, somewhere far off..
Sirf keh jaaun yaa
aasmaan pe likh doon
Teree taareefon mein
chashme baddoor
should I just tell you, or
should I write on the sky,
in your praise -
far be the evil eye..
[i.e. he wants to write far be the evil eye in the sky so that in the entire sky where the heart is flying, nobody can see her with an evil eye.]

Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya
Singer: SP Balasubramaniam
After Akon in Ra.One, Shahrukh Khan and Vishal-Shekhar this time have come up with an Indian Legend, that is, SP Balasubramaniam. The title song of the film, Chennai Express, is a tongue-catcher and SPB sings it in all fun mood, which makes it even better. Here are the lyrics from the teaser.
