Chatur Singh Two Star seems like a movie that has sequences which would have been way better left in the editor’s recycle bin. [break]
There is not even one scene in this cinematic rubbish that makes any sense to you. Well, at a few places, you have to assume that it’s an Indian version of Hollywood’s Pink Panther.
Sad, if only the director had cared how the characters are developed and the screenplay remains intact in Pink Panther.
The script in the film is totally harebrained while the acting is disgracefully bad and ALL the dialogues are outright absurd. Talk about the “laughter-gas” – well to say the least, they are so insane that you’ll raise many laughter for all wrong reasons.
If you are a true Sanjay Dutt fan, then you should strictly prohibit yourself from watching this film because if you do you will feel like either strangling him or yourself to see him act this way.
In fact, it seems like all the actors in the film predicted the future and overacted to their utmost, because for them the world was coming to an abrupt end and this was their last opportunity.
Sadly, director Chandhok utterly fails to use any of his characters to their best. Sanjay Dutt a.k.a Munna Bhai is with his worst performances ever.
Ameesha Patel in her red-hot chiffon sari in a raunchy number looks sizzling and dazzling. But if that is all the movie had to offer, we could have easily googled Ameesha Patel for all her bikini shots.
Why go for a full length movie! Prominent and promising actors like Anupam Kher, Satish Kaushik and Suresh Menon never looked so irritating and annoying onscreen.
All the potential actors fail to cheer you up even for a minute, simply because director Chandhok did not take any pain to bother about the nitty-gritty like script, screenplay, and dialogue and character development. Yes, the director’s direction is awfully awful.
Forget about the comedy as genre of this film. It’s a lot if you even get a moment of a little bit of smile. If we’re looking at the story of the film, there’s no story at all to look at! It’s just a bumbling cop Chatur Singh (Sanjay Dutt) running after a mission that explains to you nothing, or the movie has Anupam Kher as police commissioner who is seen doing nothing other than taking pills for blood pressure and stress because he cannot stand Sanjay Dutt.
Satish Kaushik and Suresh Menon are shamefully placed in the movie and they can’t deliver much. The music hardly leaves any impact on you.
I wonder what the actors were doing when they were being told about the screenplay of the movie, which is before signing in!!! In fact, one would need a real painkiller to get over the migraine attack after watching this film.
Chatur Singh becomes what he himself proudly claims to be in the film – a cross between a lion and a donkey. It’s ironic that there are two stars in the title while in reality it doesn’t deserve anything more than ZERO.
