After the outstanding web series Scam 1992, director Hansal Mehta delivered another entertaining movie. But this time he switches to a light-hearted zone. Chhalaang marks the fifth movie of actor Rajkummar Rao and filmmaker Hansal Mehta after Shahid (2013), CityLights (2014), Aligarh (2015), and Omerta (2018).
The movie has a simple, little predictable, yet enjoyable plot with a good message. The story also deals with the importance of sports education and gender parity. The first half has well-written characters and smartly written humour. The second half has well-executed Basketball and Kabaddi matches, although there was still room for tighter editing.
Rajkummar Rao never disappoints, he again delivers a diverting performance. Nushrratt Bharuccha gave a charming performance with her lovable Haryanvi diction. Mohd. Zeeshan Ayyub looks convincing as the competitive PT teacher. The film also has a great ensemble cast, Satish Kaushik, Saurabh Shukla, Ila Arun, Jatin Sarna, Baljinder Kaur, Naman Jain, and all the young actors delivers a terrific performance.
