The Cheetah Girls One World, follows Chanel, Aqua and Dorinda –The Cheetah Girls—as they travel from New York to India to star in a film directed by an aspiring Bollywood movie director. Upon arriving in India, they are shocked to learn their movie’s producer has a role for only one Cheetah Girl. Dreams and friendships are tested as they begin to compete against one another for the title role. Before long, the three girls begin to question their commitment to ‘The Cheetah Girls’ dream and each must weigh her own aspirations against the group’s future.

The soundtrack features songs written by hit-makers Andy Dodd, Adam Watts, Antonina Armato, Tim James, Jamie Houston, Robbie Nevil, Matthew Gerrard, Nikki Hassman, Adam Anders and Kara DioGuardi. The underscore was composed by David Lawrence ("High School Musical," "High School Musical 2").

The Cheetah Girls began as a 2003 Disney Channel Original Movie based on the best-selling book series for kids and tweens written by award-winning author Deborah Gregory (Jump at the Sun/Hyperion Books for Children). Within two years of the movie's debut, the group gained a large fan base, topped the soundtrack charts with a double-platinum soundtrack and enjoyed a highly-rated DVD release. In 2006, “The Cheetah Girls 2” made its debut and was the #1 basic cable movie that year among Kids 6-11 and Tweens 9-14. The soundtrack entered the top ten on The Billboard 200, topped the soundtrack chart and was certified platinum. The group embarked on an 86-date concert tour which was among the Top 10 most successful tours of the 2006/2007, grossed $26 million and helped set a new record for the largest sales in the history of the Houston Rodeo in 2007 with an impressive 73,200 tickets sold (a record previously held by Brooks & Dunn).
