Chakram

About This Movie

Chakram is an interesting entry in the action-thriller genre from 2003. The story follows Chandrahasan, a truck driver whose life takes a dark turn when his best friend Giri kidnaps his bride. There's this relentless, gritty atmosphere throughout, accentuated by some solid practical effects that really stand out. The pacing is kind of uneven at times, with moments of intense action juxtaposed against slower, more introspective scenes. The performances bring a certain rawness, especially from the lead; you can feel the desperation. What makes it distinctive is how it explores themes of loyalty and betrayal in a world that feels quite harsh and unforgiving. It may not be the most polished film, but it has its own unique charm.
