'Chamku' is the journey of a boy Chandrama Singh alias Chamku whose family had been brutally murdered and was brought up and trained by Naxalites in Southern interiors of Bihar.

Best in the business, operations, encounters and political assassinations, he soon became the blue-eyed boy. He was given the toughest jobs which he tackled with ease. His life changes when love enters his life and makes him realize how beautiful life is… But his past comes and stands on his face.

My Conclusion:

The subject choosen by the director was quite good but they didnt able to give full justification to the naxalite subject and made it a personal rivalary movie which we are seeing from past decades in bollywood. At the beginning when movie starts, you expect some new matter is going to unclosed infront of you but at the end of the story you reliaze that you have been cheated and nothing comes up infront of you. Even movie gets bit out of pace after around 40 minutes and which you cant expect in this short movie of hardly 2 hours duration. Even short duration of the movie plays another culprit role, where in mere 2 hours you will watch songs in the movie.
Starcast is quite renowed one but after watching the movie you will realize that everyone was just wasted in the movie and except "Bobby Deol", no one had a role exceeding 20 minutes.But acting wise each actors had given full justification and everyone was okay-okay in there characters.

Finally, its not a must watch movie but since from a long time very few movies have come out on DVD, so you can watch it if you dont have any other movie to watch.

My Rating: 2/5
