Director Kabeer Kaushik’s ‘Chamku,’ the second film in his directorial venture, features Bobby Deol in the leading role of Chamku. The film opens with the tragic murder of Chandrama Singh’s family, prompting his indoctrination into a Maoist group led by Danny Denzongpa. Chamku, known for his solemnity, later becomes a government agent, a turn facilitated by Irrfan Khan. The narrative progresses as Chamku is trained to kill, leading him to an encounter with Priyanka Chopra. Despite the development of a romantic relationship and the addition of musical sequences, the film struggles to distinguish itself beyond the usual revenge-driven storylines. While the action sequence on the train is a highlight, it doesn’t fully rescue the film. The film’s title itself, questioned for its unusual nature, highlights the overall lukewarm reception of ‘Chamku’.
