Jayasurya plays the title role- Chandu. Chandu has frequently been misunderstood due to his name’s negative connotation. That prompts the landlord (Janardhanan) to ask Chandu to ‘cheat’ his daughter, Indira (Bhavana) who loves him. Chandhu has no other go but to obey the rich man because he and his mother are solely depended him. For cementing his ‘purported’ love with another girl and thus make Indira to retract from her way, Chandu did some foul play. But that ended by adding one more person (Navya Nair) to his company. Later, Chandu and the new girl reached in the group of film people! The so-called humorous incidents followed it is unbearable.

The first half of ‘Chandu’ has done satisfactorily. But later, ‘the story within the story’ of the movie, let the ‘Chathikkatta Chandu’ into a real ‘chathiyan’? The ‘palace episode and the induction of ghosts to scare the villains in the movie are actually fooled the viewers! The movie has gone down more when the sorcerer (Jagathy) was haunted by the bogus ghosts! And the ending of ‘Chandu’ reminiscent cartoon story! Scenes do not have any logics. Jayasurya got another chance for becoming a hero in a movie is the specialty of this picture!

Salim Kumar’s appearance as ‘dancer (Jackson) Wikram’ is good. The supporting cast line-up includes Lal, Vineeth, Navya Nayar, Indrans, and Cochin Haneefa. Saloo George has done a good camera work and the song sequences are also pictured well. Music director is Alex Paul and lyrics are written by Gireesh Puthanchery. Lal creations has produced the movie.
