Ek Chatur Naar

Started watching this movie with low expectations and it somehow managed to under deliver even then. Bad writing, bad performances and bad editing makes this movie jard one sit through. The story doesn't move at all and remains stand still. Almost feels like most of the user reviews here are fake as there's no way in hell that someone would rate this movie 5+.

This movie seems like a school project run by the one over enthusiastic kid thinking they have hit gold mine with their idea. This is a terrible story (if there is one) executed even more poorly. The lack of coherence or plot is painfully obvious in the 2nd half of the movie where it seems that the makers felt no one's going to remember the first half. The only comedy is that the joke's on us. And the real mystery is if there was a mystery element ever thought for this movie.

The acting is sub par for the most part and melodramatic in others. It mostly feels like the actors were briefed to emote the emotion they felt most apt for a situation and asked to go 10X on it.

All these reviews claiming this movie to be amazing and the lead actress's acting being outstanding are simply exaggerated and probably written by their PR team or by the actress in question herself. I wish I had the option of rating this lower than 1 star but that is obviously not an option just like the movie having no options of any sensibility.

Bakwaas Movie - Don't waste your time, it can be more detailed, but the plot and storytelling are just like Cartoons. Neil's acting is good, but Divya isn't the actress material, just a nepo female trying his luck again and again. The overall movie is a disaster, and I wasted 1 hour of my life on this baseless and senseless movie.

Ek Chatur Naar falls flat across the board. The story relies on endless coincidences, forced humour, and unnecessary chaos that weakens every scene. Performances lean into loud overacting instead of genuine comedy, making the narrative feel shallow and tiring. Overall, the film lacks coherence and impact. Not even a one-time watch.

The supporting cast is excellent, though. The story had a lot of potential, but the screenplay feels limited. Divya Khosla Kumar is not expressive, and given how unconvincing her UP accent sounds, she probably shouldn't have attempted it. Neil Nitin Mukesh's acting is flat and pulls you out of the movie. The film is carried on the shoulders of Chhaya Kadam and Sushant Singh, who are both charismatic and effortless in their performances.
