Earlier in the day, screenwriter Javed Akhtar also praised Chandu Champion. He shared on X, “Watched Chandu Champion. Who would have believed it if it not would have been a 100% true story. Particularly enjoyed the 2nd half. Another feather in Kabir khan’s cap. Kartik is a delightful surprise in a dramatic role. Vijay Raaz is brilliant. Cinematographer Sudeep Chatterji’s work is mind blowing. My hats off to the editor.”
