A brutally honest and spine-chilling psychological thriller from R Balki that flaunts a brilliant lead act from Dulquer Salmaan alongside a subtle and memorable cop-act by Sunny Deol !
The narrative by Balki moves in a lethargic pace but has its own beauty and the tight screenplay ensures that the audience is glued to the screens right from the word go!
The interval block and the climax sequences were top- notch and made memorable by haunting music and performances
The references to yesteryear classic 'Kagaz Ke Phool' by maestro Guru Dutt was intertwined cleverly with the narrative and deserves a special mention.
Overall,Chup is an authentic Balki craft that deserves a watch from the cinemas for its novel narrative,stellar performances and beautiful musical score.

Finally, a movie which deserves good word-of-mouth publicity. Watched the preview show and I am quite impressed with the screenplay and direction.
Background reprised music kept the soul of the film alive. Has one song which I felt should have been avoided to keep the intensity intact.
Performance is good, all supporting casts played their role well.
It was nice to see Sunny and Pooja after so long. Salman's performance looks very natural and impressive.
It's not a typical edge of the seat thriller but is still very gripping which would keep you curious till the end.
The climax felt a bit rushed but overall worth a watch for thriller lovers.

A movie which really stands out amongst all. This Dulqueer Salmaan and Sunny Deol starrer, directed by the much acclaimed R. Balki is everything you expect it to be. An engaging storyline with good screenplay and just the right amount of metaphor. The movie is hailed by D. Salmaan. He is not a stranger when it comes to delivering commendable performances but this has to be his best work yet. The range shown by him while playing the character of 'Danny' is mind-blowing. The rest of the cast which includes our very own Sunny Deol and a familiar face in the web series world Shreya Dhanwantary did justice to their roles aswell. Even the background score produced by Aman Pant is extremely impressive. Lastly, the direction by R. Balki is what forms the gold petals around CHUP. Balki proved that the most important thing in a movie is it's story. Even though I think the climax could have been shot a bit better and when it comes to the technical aspects of the film like it's colour grading I honestly think there is a lot of room for improvement there. Overall the movie is a treat to the audiences. It has a gist of everything. It's a must watch in my opinion. Don't know about others but this movie encouraged me to write my first review.
An absolute masterpiece from R. Balki yet again! Must Watch!!! One of the best suspense thrillers with an intriguing plot & breathtaking screenplay. Beautiful background scores keep one thrilled in their seat right till the end. Massive tribute to Guru Dutt Ji. Standout performance by fan-favorite superstar Dulquer Salmaan - He is like art, one can never take the eye away from. Halfway through this review, my hands are already shivering while thinking of the after-effects of it, yet I am taking the risk because this film is worth its appreciation. Cinema lovers are truly going to enjoy this one. #CriticsKoChup Bollywood is back. Thank you Balki Sir!
I don't want to give spoilers but yes every scene in the movie is designed in class and one can be thrilled by seeing the way they have portrayed the murder and every detail has won the heart. The background score is the main protagonist I must say. This film will keep you intact till end.
Such "Story and Screenplay" is something which was missing for a very long time. Witnessing this superb masterpiece through public review was an extraordinary experience in itself. The whole cast and their roles are so magnificently written ..every killer has a story but this story is something which touched my heart! A Must-Watch Film.
