Directed by Kabir Khan and starring Kartik Aaryan in the lead role, the eagerly-awaited sports drama Chandu Champion has finally been released in theatres. Social media is flooded with reactions. Here’s what’s special about it:
Chandu Champion is a tale of resilience and success. It is based on the real-life experiences of Murlikant Petkar, India's first paralympic gold medallist.
Summing up comments on Twitter, Kartik’s performance in Chandu Champion is beyond brilliant. Many netizens have called it his career-best performance. He plays Petkar in the film.
Kabir Khan is back in action after the critically acclaimed film ‘83’ in 2021. Known for helming compelling and memorable movies, Khan's direction masterfully brings out the deep emotions of the lead character.
This is one genre that, time and again, draws audiences to theatres. Sports dramas can be watched by families and are wholesome entertainers. They are inspiring stories of grit and determination, leaving you feeling good at the end.
Since the film is a biographical drama based on the struggles and successes of Murlikant Petkar, it is a great way to learn about an inspiring Indian who we didn't know much about.
The plot explores Petkar's struggles, offering an emotionally charged tale. Many social media users on X expressed that the film’s dialogue will give viewers goosebumps, making it an interesting watch.
Acclaimed celebrities, including Suniel Shetty, Gajraj Rao, and Ananya Panday, have heaped praise on Chandu Champion. Vidya Balan, Tiger Shroff and other have also hailed the film.
