How did we like it? Let’s talk.
Chup Movie Review: The Story
The story begins with the brutal murder of a famous film critic in Mumbai. Police officer Arvind Mathur (Sunny Deol) starts investigating the case. Meanwhile, Neela Menon (Shreya Dhanwantri), who has come to Mumbai with her blind mother from Bangalore, is working in the newspaper as an entertainment journalist. She falls in love after a mail meeting with Danny (Dulquer Salmaan), who runs a flower shop. Meanwhile, two more murders take place. The killer kills so clearly that the police have no clue. The police think that it is a serial killer. The police enlist the help of criminal psychologist Zenobia (Pooja Bhatt). However, keeping no secret, it becomes clear in the middle of the story that the killer is Danny, who is the critics’ critic.
Chup Movie Review and Analysis
The brightest side of ‘Chup’ is its performance. Especially Dulquer Salmaan. In the role of a disturbed young man, Danny, he has told that he is one of the new generations of actors whose innings are going to be long. His screen presence is amazing. The transformation of Devil Danny from Cute Danny, he does so effortlessly that the heart becomes happy. He has captured all the moments of Limelight and Climax in all the films. This is his great performance. Dulquer should do more Hindi films.
Sunny Deol is returning to the screen after a long time. But it doesn’t seem like he has had any break. He is also composed in his role and is also fit. Anyway, he has done the role of such a supercop many times before. So it would not have been difficult for them at all. Shreya Dhanwantri has got less screen space but her presence is felt. A fresher entertainment journalist, who is deeply in love with the genre of cinema. Who is happy like a child after getting praise for the article written by him and sad to read the fabricated reviews of corrupt reviewers? Who only needs a slow-mo fellow to romance? She will play the music in her mind. Shreya has done her job lovingly. In the role of criminal psychologist Zenobia, Pooja Bhatt is convincing and also occasionally funny.
The film scores well in another department. Dialogues. The dialogues are cheeky and impactful. Has been capable of generating humor in many places, while in many places, it proves to be a lethal commentary on harsh reality. like a dialogue, Director R Balki has always followed the path of path-breaking cinema. Whether it is ‘Cheeni Kum‘ or ‘Pa’. His urge to do something different is visible in this film as well. This time he is trying his hand at thriller and has done a satisfactory job. He also wrote the film. ‘Chup’ is a great concept at the idea level. The Guru Dutt touch from above makes it even more attractive. The placement of songs in Guru Dutt’s films is excellent. You feel a strong connection constantly.
Certain things can be counted on the account of shortcomings. This can be mentioned without fear, because – thankfully – there is no psycho killer behind the critics in the real world. The film falls short in further improving an innovative idea. As much as you see in the trailer, the essence of the film is almost the same. We go by the expectation that the film will have a little more than what is revealed in the trailer. The filmmaker must have saved some extras. But it is not. More or less it gets as much as it is in the trailer. A murderer, the strange reason for serial killing and the struggle to catch him. enough.
Another drawback seems to be that the climax has not been as strong. It seems that everything ended very quickly and very conveniently. You are waiting for some grand show and you feel a little disappointed. So. Despite these flaws, one should be seen as Chup. For new ideas. For fast screenplay. For the performance of Dulquer Salmaan. And for that charismatic genre called cinema, which is an integral part of all of our lives. To realize the extent to which cinema has entered our lives. In an era when there is talk of dismissing the entertainment industry outright, a film like ‘Chup’ strengthens our faith in the importance of cinema. And this is the biggest achievement – in my opinion – of this film.
The reason why he does not openly express his opinion on the Internet media in the age of Internet media is not clear. He could even post his film on YouTube. Many directors don’t have their debut films. Is it just because of the review? The film does not talk in depth about many such aspects. Danny is a fan of Guru Dutt. He reads that Guru Dutt’s film Kaagaz Ke Phool was rejected by the critics. Because of this, he stopped making films. But it is not proper to associate his death with the paper flower. It is well known that there was a lot of turmoil in his personal life. Apart from this, there is incompleteness in the climax of the film. You expect some shocking revelation, but you end up disappointed. Amitabh Bachchan has a cameo in the film. Through it, stating the need for review, it has been said to give it without bias.
Chup Movie Review: The Last Words
The character of Sunny Deol has not been properly crafted in the cast. Therefore, it has not been effective. Dulquer Salmaan’s innocence is the lifeblood of his character. He has perfectly absorbed the pain of a single person, the passionate cinematographer Danny. As an entertainment journalist, Shreya Dhanwantri hasn’t got a chance to explore anything special. His love story also does not impress much. The popular songs ‘Jaane Kya Tune Kahin’ and ‘Yeh Duniya Agar Mil Bhi Jaye’ from Guru Dutt’s classic film ‘Pyaasa’ used in the film have been properly woven together with the story. Filmmaking is a challenging job. Not being able to accept your criticism shows that you are not ready for it, which is imperative in this field. The film fails to highlight both these aspects in a proper way.
