InFilm to Miss: Chup Chup Ke (2006)

Chup Chup Ke (2006) 


Jeetu is in serious debt, with collectors clamoring for their cash. He ends up jumping into the ocean, as his life insurance policy would be enough to pay back all his debt, despite leaving behind his parents and a loving fiancee. What happens when a hapless fisherman finds Jeetu's body and thinks the list in his pocket are all the people who owe Jeetu money? Will the fisherman's boss agree to take the shameless trickster in?

*This story line had great potential, but some of the physical comedy didn't quite hit home with me (I don't typically like slapstick anyway), and Jeetu's character as the lovable rogue was off the mark. He comes off as a true miscreant, and his one redeeming act isn't even shown on screen. It also felt too heavy and dramatic overall, and the ending was rather abrupt. I won't watch this again.*
