The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Chalte Chalte (transl. On the Way) is a 2003 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy drama film directed by Aziz Mirza. The film stars Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji in the lead roles. It marked the final production venture of Dreamz Unlimited prior to its rebranding as Red Chillies Entertainment in 2003. Chalte Chalte released on 13 June 2003, and proved to be a commercial success at the box office, grossing ₹43.28 crore (US$5.4 million) worldwide. It received positive reviews from critics upon release, with praise for its theme, screenplay, soundtrack and the lead performances; however, some critics noted a thematic similarity between the film and Saathiya (2002), which also starred Mukerji in the lead. The film was screened at the Casablanca Film Festival. At the 49th Filmfare Awards, Chalte Chalte received 5 nominations, including Best Actress (Mukerji) and Best Music Director (Jatin-Lalit).
