Story of The Film :
After witnessing his entire Bhagpur, Bihar-based family being killed by Thakur Mahendra Pratap Singh, a traumatized and injured Chandrama Singh wakes up in a hospital, is adopted by Naxal leader, Baba, and grows up to become one himself. Years later, after killing Ramji Mahto, the police kill Baba, while Chandrama is hospitalized after being shot. When he recovers, he is told by Officer Vijayraj Kapur that he must agree to become a police-assassin or be killed in an ‘encounter’. Chandrama agrees and undergoes vigorous training in all combat aspects along with 29 others for over 3 years. He then re-locates to Mumbai, and lives with another assassin, Arjun Tiwari, his mother, and falls in love with a school-teacher, Shubhi, while carrying out a wide variety of assassinations against ‘anti-nationals’. Chandrama’s only goal is to locate and kill Mahendra while Arjun wants to retire and re-locate to his home-town in Sultanpur. With increasing pressure of marriage from a pregnant Shubhi, Chandrama will find his life changing even more after Arjun gets killed by the police, and he is instructed that he cannot kill Mahendra – who is very influential – and is all set to become a Member of Parliament.

Chamku Movie Review :
This film review are Mostly Positive from Critics, and the IMDB Public Reviewing site give 4.0 Star Out Of 10 Star with Reviewers are 507.
Chamku sounds like a comedy but turns out to be a action film.Chamku is a old wine served in a new bottle. Chamku is an outdated revenge action movie.Chamku is filled with blood and gore. The biggest culprit of this movie is the writer,the writer expects the audiences to be stupid.The first half is nothing special but the second half is very boring.The movie is predictable cause of the screenplay of this film.The second half is basically filled with blood and violence.
Monty Sharma’s music is below average.Bobby Deol gives his best,he puts energy in this film and he’s the Savior of this movie.Priyanka Chopra is wasted,Irrfan Khan is excellent.
Critics Rating by Taran Adarsh, from Bollywood Hungama give 1.5 star out of 5 Star.
