Chauranga Movie Story Plot:

Chauranga is a rebel with a cause, an angry young Dalit teenager Santu (Sohum Maitra) who wants to seize what he feels he deserves — education and the love of a pretty young upper caste village girl.

However, the hierarchies and status quo imposed by the staunchly caste-ist society of his village come in the way even as he closely watches the trains that whiz past his village, without ever stopping, because his village is not important enough for civilisation. Is there a way out for him then beyond looking after his pig?

Chauranga Movie Review & Rating:

The film, especially the first half, is a cruel mirror to what’s happening in the interiors of our country. Chauranga is interesting in how it shows that a disadvantaged woman could use the exploitation to her own advantage, being more proactive than her mute upper caste counterparts.

Even though the film highlights real issues of India, by the end of the film, we still feel the director hasn’t presented anything novel.

Plus Points:

Minus Points:

All India Roundup Rating:

Verdict: Chauranga is highly engaging and in this new year, if you have resolved to watch some intelligent sensible cinema then go for it.
