Ram Singh Charlie Movie Story & Performances:

The sudden shut down of Jango circus had left everyone shocked involved in it. When Masterji (played by Salima Raza) decided to handover the responsibilities of the circus to her son Nabeel (played by Akarsh Khurana), he got less interested in continuing the circus with no profit from it. He announces advance three months’ salary to all of the co-workers for shutting down the circus.

Masterji asked Ram Singh (played by Kumud Mishra), an artist of that circus popularly known as Charlie within that group about his next step, so he informed about not returning to their village instead of staying there and search for the same role somewhere else.

They moved to Kolkata and after several attempts, he failed to get any chance anywhere. Ram Singh was getting worried thinking about his pregnant wife Kajri (played by Divya Dutta) and their son Chintu (played by Rohit Rokhade).

After a few days of attempts he finally decided to become a rickshaw puller to meet their daily needs. Other artists of that circus also moved to different jobs to earn their living. The violin player now plays into a sub-way, two dwarves, Short (Lilliput) and Cut (K.K. Goswami) has become watchmen of a bar. In between Kajri gave birth to another baby and returned to live with Ram Singh from the village.

One of his friends Shahjahan (played by Farrukh Seyer) helped him with some money to fulfill his dream of setting up his own circus. Being unable to accept the insult from a bar-goer Cut slapped him and was beaten very badly and got hospitalized. Ram Singh had prioritized Cut’s life as more important than his dreams and without thinking too much he went to help Cut with that money. The rest of the story revolved around how Ram Singh was finally able to fulfill his dream.

Director Nitin Kakkar took us to those times when we used to find many circuses here and there which have given people so much pleasure and entertainment. He was excellent in showing us the real struggles of an artist and the storytelling was really good & articulate. Composer Arijit Datta along with Troy-Arif was able to provide us some good music.

Without a second thought we can easily tell that Ram Singh Charlie Movie was one of the best performances of Kumud Mishra’s career. He got very well support from Divya Dutta has provided a spectacular performance here.

Other casts including Salima Raza, Surandra Rajan, Akarsh Khurana, Farrukh Seyer, Sharib Hashmi, Rohit Rokhade provided good support to keep the story solid throughout.

Ram Singh Charlie is streaming on SonyLIV.
