New Delhi: Kartik Aaryan has just dropped the trailer for his highly anticipated film Chandu Champion on social media. The movie is inspired by the life of Murlikant Petkar, a Paralympic gold medalist who achieved glory at the 1970 Commonwealth Games and the 1972 Paralympics in Germany.
In the gripping trailer, Kartik Aaryan portrays Murli, a man with a singular ambition to win a gold medal in the Olympics. Despite facing criticism from his classmates, teachers, and parents, who nickname him “Chandu,” Murli is determined to prove them wrong and secure India’s first Olympic gold medal. His journey begins with a resolve to represent India in the Olympics, leading him to enlist in the Army to refine his skills.
However, fate takes a cruel turn when Murli ends up in a coma for two years after being shot nine times. Yet, his indomitable spirit shines through as he refuses to succumb to despair. Through a series of compelling sequences, we witness Chandu’s evolution—from rigorous army training to his relentless pursuit of excellence in boxing. The audience witnesses Chandu’s arduous journey and the hurdles he overcame to become India’s first Paralympic gold medalist.
