Chak De! India (transl. "Go for it! India!") or (transl. "Let's go! India") is a 2007 Hindi cinema sports film about field hockey in India, directed by Shimit Amin and produced by Aditya Chopra under the banner of Yash Raj Films. The film stars Shah Rukh Khan as Kabir Khan, former captain of the India men's national field hockey team. After a disastrous loss to Pakistan, Khan is ostracized from the sport owing to religious prejudice. 7 years later in an attempt to redeem himself, he becomes the coach of the Indian national women's hockey team, with the goal of turning its 16 contentious players into an award-winning team.

Produced on a budget of ₹200 million, Chak De! India was released on 10 August 2007 to positive reviews. It was commercially successful, grossing over ₹1.01 billion worldwide.

Critical limits
