Kartik Aaryan dances to perfection in 'Chandu Champion' song 'Satyanaas'

This Pritam Chakraborty song is reminiscent of Shankar Ehsaan Loy's score for the barrack scene, right down to the clothing, the steps, and the general vibe.

Director Kabir Khan released the teaser of 'Satyanaas' song from his upcoming Kartik Aaryan starrer Chandu Champion. While the song is an upbeat catchy number, it is hard to ignore its uncanny resemblance with Farhan Akhtar starrer 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag' song 'Maston Ka Jhund'. From the costume to steps to the overall feel, this Pritam Chakraborty song reminds of Shankar Ehsaan Loy's composition for the barrack scene.

Directed by filmmaker Kabir Khan, Kartik Aaryan starrer 'Chandu Champion' is slated for release on June 14, 2024. The film is based on the awe-inspiring true story of Murlikant Petkar, India’s first Paralympic gold medallist. Aaryan, known for his versatility and charm, takes on the role of Petkar, bringing to life the journey of a man who turned immense adversity into extraordinary triumph.

'Chandu Champion' delves deep into Petkar’s life, from his days as a soldier in the Indian Army to the tragic accident during the 1965 Indo-Pak war that left him paralysed. Instead of succumbing to despair, Petkar channelled his fighting spirit into sports. His journey is marked by determination, resilience, and an unwavering will to succeed. The film highlights Petkar’s relentless pursuit of excellence, culminating in his gold medal win in swimming at the 1972 Summer Paralympics in Heidelberg, Germany.

'Chandu Champion' promises to be an emotionally charged narrative that celebrates human spirit and endurance. The screenplay captures the essence of Petkar's life, portraying not just his physical struggles but also his emotional and psychological battles.

The film’s supporting cast including Bhagyashree Patwardhan, Vijay Raaz, Rajpal Yadav among others, adds depth and authenticity to the story. With Aaryan's heartfelt performance and Khan’s direction, 'Chandu Champion' is expected to be both a critical and commercial success. This film is more than just a biopic; it’s a tribute to a national hero, aiming to inspire audiences with the story of a man who, despite all odds, emerged victorious.
