Template:Use mdy dates Template:Use American English Template:Infobox television The Cheetah Girls: One World (also known as The Cheetah Girls 3 or The Cheetah Girls 3: One World) is a 2008 American musical film, released as a Disney Channel Original Movie. It premiered on Disney Channel on August 22, 2008. It is the third and final film of The Cheetah Girls trilogy, and the only film not to feature Raven-Symoné.

Plot

With Galleria away at Cambridge, Chanel, Dorinda, and Aqua are left as a trio and are cast in the lavish Bollywood movie "Namaste Bombay". The Cheetah Girls travel across the globe to India where they meet Rahim, the man cast as the lead, whom they realize is attractive, yet somewhat clumsy. After meeting the movie's choreographer, Gita, a dance battle erupts between the girls and Gita and her backup dancers ("Dance Me If You Can"). They subsequently discover that the musical's director, Vikram "Vik", must choose only one Cheetah for the role as the budget is only enough for one star.

When it becomes apparent that they must travel home, they are upset, until realizing they may each try out for the lead. Though they all make a promise to be fair in the competition, situations arise in which each member becomes jealous of the others' specific talents. Chanel befriends Vik, Dorinda befriends Rahim, and Aqua befriends a boy she has been in contact with since before leaving America, Amar. Each girl is led to believe the producer of the film, Khamal, Vik's uncle, will choose her after the audition. Chanel is told because she is the better singer, she will receive the role, while Dorinda is promised the role as she is the best dancer, while Aqua is convinced the coveted role will be hers as she is the best actress. The three Cheetahs audition against one another ("I'm The One") with Chanel being awarded the role, which she later refuses after realizing, along with the other Cheetahs, that friendship and unity are more important than furthering their individual careers ("No Place like Us").

After refusing the role, Chanel and the girls set out to convince Khamal to award Gita as the lead, to which he reluctantly agrees. The film ends with a scene from "Namaste Bombay" in which the Cheetahs sing and dance the film's titular song, "One World".

Cast

Production

In early 2007, Disney Channel announced the film with the plot involving the Cheetah Girls going to India to star in a Bollywood production.[1] Like The Cheetah Girls 2, it was filmed on location in a foreign country, for a three-month period in India. Bailon was doing research for the film during the filming.[2] Although Bailon said in March that "all of the original cast will be back",[2] Raven-Symoné later confirmed in August that she would not be returning for this film due to "catfights" and "territorial issues" behind the scenes of the second film.[3] Nearly a decade later, Symoné would reveal she did not appear in the third film due to feeling "excluded" and "ostracized" during production of The Cheetah Girls 2.[4]

The film was shot on location in Udaipur and Mumbai in India from January to April 2008.[5] Like High School Musical 2, Disney Channel featured a "play your part" role, where viewers and fans could choose elements of the film through the website. This took place from December 31, 2007 to February 1, 2008.[6]
