Chandu Champion movie review: Can Kabir Khan’s films get any worse?

#ChanduChampion finds director Kabir Khan returning to 83 territory, for better or worse.

We talk about the film’s shoddy storytelling structure, its complete lack of interest in developing its protagonist, and its over-reliance on crutches like music and contrivances.

We also discuss Khan’s tendency to underestimate his audiences’ intellect and his inherent insecurity about his subject’s genuine achievements. Chandu Champion is another Hindi movie that shouldn’t get even a passing grade, forget the high praise that it has seemingly received.
