Movie: Chandu Champion
Cast: Kartik Aaryan, Vijay Raaz
Director: Kabir Khan
Rating: 1.5/5

Chandu Champion is a brilliantly lit, mounted film, shot by Sudeep Chatterjee (from the Sanjay Leela Bhansali stable; but also cinematographer of Chak De India). If that’s the first, if not the only thing you notice about this picture; then, already, there’s an issue. 

That is, if you’re gawking in awe at the opponent boxer—falling in slow-motion inside the ring—or the transition shot, with the face of the young hero (past), morphing into the old hero (present). Or, indeed the silhouette of people atop a train, framed like a Warli painting!
