    A surprisingly brilliant film

    Absolutely blown away by this movie! It exceeded all my expectations. The direction was top-notch, every actor delivered their best, even the supporting cast shone brilliantly. However, the marketing fell short; with better trailers and teasers, it could've garnered the attention it deserves. Movies like this are crucial, but sadly, in our society, they might not get the recognition they merit. Releasing it on OTT platforms like Netflix could attract a wider audience. While the background music needed more focus for an enhanced experience, the humor was fantastic. The storyline delicately handled a sensitive topic, showcasing sheer mastery.

    A Breath of Fresh Air for Pakistani Cinema

    Diving into the intricate realms of a crime thriller, this movie stands out not just for its gripping narrative but also for its poignant exploration of a sensitive social issue. The script and direction exhibit sheer brilliance, orchestrating a symphony that allows the cast to shine brilliantly. What pleasantly surprised me was the sprinkling of humor, masterfully interspersed to offer reprieves from the intense drama. This film isn't just a cinematic endeavour; it's a transformative breath of fresh air for Pakistani cinema. One can only hope it serves as a beacon, inspiring more such impactful creations in the future. A must-watch for aficionados of quality storytelling.

    Strong Message, Well Delivered

    After a while, I have seen a very neat movie that has a very clear objective. A serious issue in society is highlighted through a well-crafted piece of art. The movie engages you in a way that you do not pay attention to its long duration. All the characters seem natural and relevant. The sequence of scenes is connected so you do not feel stranded. The background music is strong and goes deep inside. The sad tribute to mob victims at the end shakes you. Apart from its serious topic, the humor created is well-aligned, making you smile. I personally like the dialogues. I wish people watch and appreciate Chikkar so we could see more mindful, purposeful, and meaningful movies in the future. Thanks.

    Chikkar movie review

    After so long a good story line came to cinema. Although it is a movie which is tackling some very heavy and serious topics.it is commendable when a movie is handling such serious issues like Chikkarh did. As it is covering a very serious issue of feminine oppression and involvement of powerful people in it. Its really crucial to handle such sensitive topics with sensitivity and respect. All actors have done a remarkable effort with their characters. The tinch of humour is balancing the bitterness of the truth. Everything is awesome including cinematography, selection of actors and music. Indeed writer manages to strike that balance effectively. A great movie and indeed worth of watching and spending money. A huge round of applause to the director and writer Mr Zaheer Uddin Ahmed 👏🏼
