Chamku

I was totally amazed with the contents of this movie from Dharmendra, even though I had did have some inkling from the promos.

Chamku, whose real name is Chandrama, is taken care of by Baba, after he is forced to watch his parents being murdered. Baba, however, trains him to become a sharp shooter and is one day killed by the Police in an encounter and Chamku joins a Government agency and gets involved in covert operations where those that are felt as threat to the system are assassinated. Then his life takes a twist when he meets Shubhi and falls in love with her.

Produced by Dharmendra, the movie stars Bobby Deol, Priyanka Chopra, Danny Denzongpa, Irfan Khan, Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh, Rajpal Yadav and is Directed by Kabeer Kaushik while Monty Sharma provides the music score.

Don't be misled that since the star cast includes Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh and Rajpal Yadav, that this is some sort of comedy because there isn't and they have proved that they are able to do some serious roles as well. Once again, Irfan Khan has shown his talents and has done an excellent job of a character relating to Government agency and who can be ruthless. But one actor who has gone beyond all my expectations is Bobby Deol. He has played his role very well and one which can be believable and it has suited him. Lastly for Priyanka Chopra, who has also done well, this can be said, was better then her last movie, "Love 2050," and was one of her best films since "Don."

Conclusion: This has delivered some fresh air into this sort of genre - worth watching.

Well i just saw this movie. Only good thing about this movie is it is short 1 hr 41 Min's. Music is a torture. No intensity in script. You keep thinking when will this movie get over. Nothing new to watch in this movie. Its a slow place, scenes are in random order or can say in no order. Even after good star cast there is nothing in story for actors to show their talent. Anyway its your call.

I recommend recent flick " Wednesday " extremely good movie with awesome script , actors and performance. Edge of the seat entertainment with a social message.

Have a great day.

For a 2008 film it feels too old even though there are dialogues which refers to it's contemporary films. :/

When Chamku was released,there were no high expectations from it but those who spent the money to watch the movie, I can safely say that they must have had their money worth it.Chamku is a good movie and the performances by the actors were also pretty good.To be honest, the storyline has nothing extra special except for being well crafted and drafted but the direction,cinematography and screenplay were excellent and very well done.The director has done a very good job and has chosen the right actors for each character role. Bobby Deol is back(I won't say with a bang but with a decent performance after a long time)and with Irfan has worked out a thumbs up combination.The movie was intense and has been well dramatized by the actors' performances.Irfan as usual does justice to the role with exceptions on some occasions when it comes to the delivery of his lines in English and the accent he uses. The editing was also good and there were less of the unnecessary song sequences and character inclusions that would have added nothing to the plot.The plot was a well conceived one and the USP of the movie was its uninterrupted run of the plot and the dramatization.The usage of background music was good but on occasions some scores sounded familiar and heard of.

I won't criticize the movie much but if at all I have to speak something negative about it then it would be a couple of things.First, Priyanka Chopra again has nothing much to do other than being Bobby's love interest and being the cause of him drifting away from his job of assassination.Priyanka Chopra again didn't have much of the opportunity to showcase her acting skills and instead has been used as a fill up for the gap of the important character role that she plays.Honestly any decent actress could have done justice to that role as it really does'nt require a Priyanka Chopra or any other glam quotient.It doesn't really cause any harm to the movie though because she plays her part well but as I said it's not a very significant performance role from her in the movie.The second negative aspect is that the movie has shades of Badal and Bichchoo in its plot and the role of Bobby also signifies that and indicates towards it.The movie has the same elements of the hero avenging his father's death but with a different storyline but nevertheless the direction of the film and other fore said factors cover everything up pretty well. All in all, a very well made movie with no nonsensical approach and no extra uninteresting additions and the time limit was also kept fine keeping in pace with the plot and approaching climax.Not bad at all!

Nothing new at all. It was too slow to be a thriller and too violent to be a drama. In the end it was a dull tale of a trained killer, with the romance added in for the pleasure of the average Bollywood audience. The whole romance angle was totally unnecessary. Also, musical numbers were not called for given the tone for rest of the movie. Action sequences were pretty average. None of the performances were particularly impressive. On the whole this is one movie that can be avoided without missing out on anything at all. Poor story, screenplay, and direction ruins the movie, with the cast and budget they should have surely made something better than this.
