Chalo America (transl. Let's go to America) is a 1999 Indian Hindi-language comedy film directed by Piyush Jha.[1]
The film chronicles the misadventures of three Lukkhas (Slackers) with just one dream preying on their minds – to get to the kingdom of Coca-Cola and Clinton. They make attempt after attempt to flee from the drudgery and boredom in dreary India to the land of the free and the home of the brave – the United States. They remain undeterred by their failure and woeful incompetence to get there – be it by acquiring a visa or a wife, or smuggling themselves into boats. Their hopes flag, but never quite fade away.
