‘Chhal’ (2002) was produced under the banner of Ishaan Films and was directed by Hansal Mehta. The cast included Kay Kay Menon and Jaya Seal in the lead roles with the supporting cast of Naved Aslam, Shrivallabh Vyas, Prashant Narayanan, Apurva Asrani, Manoj Mishra, Anil Chaudhary, Arash, Preeti Koppikar, Shailendra Srivastav, Sanjeev Jha, Abhijeet Lahiri, Sanjay Mishra, Makarand Deshpande etc. It was a debut Hindi film for Jaya Seal and the second Hindi film for Kay Kay Menon, Naved Aslam and Prashant Narayanan. It was Hansal Mehta’s second film as a director. So, it was an important film for these artists for furthering their filmy career.
The film is a gangster movie of the lines of some films of this genre like ‘Satya’ (1998) and ‘Company’ (2002). Broadly, it is a story of a cop (Kay Kay Menon) who gets infiltrated into a gang led by a Don (Shrivallabh Vyas) as a goon to get important information and evidence against the Don and his Deputy to effectively prosecute them. With the passage of time, the cop becomes an important part of the gang. He passes on the important information to police chief (Naved Islam) including the plan of the Don to shift to Malaysia leaving his Deputy, Girish (Prashant Narayanan), a hit man of the gang, to take charge of Mumbai region.
With the period of time, the undercover cop gets emotionally attached to gang members. He also falls in love with Girish’s sister (Jaya Seal) whom he had saved from the abduction by a rival gang. Now the Don and his deputy trust under-cover cop more than his police chief who fears that the cop may become a rogue under-cover. Later, the undercover cop realises that he has become a pawn in the fight between the Don and the police department and within the gang itself as Don wants to make the undercover cop as his successor by eliminating Girish, his prospective brother-in-law. More importantly, now the political boss wants to call off the mission to nab the don. The film’s end is sarcastic with Makarand Deshpande appearing in a cameo role of a new under-cover cop to nab the Don.
I have watched a pirated version of the film with less than average quality of video. The film gives a glimpse of a fast-paced suspense thriller. The scenes are well executed with tight editing and close ups. The performances of all the important characters – Kay Kay Menon, Prashant Narayanan, Shrivallabh Vyas and Naved Aslam are excellent. Jaya Seal has limited presence in the film as can be expected in a gangster film. Her love angle with the undercover cop seems to give some respite to the audience from crime and violence to the emotional turmoil. The climax of the film, which I have deliberately not discussed above, is well handled to retain the suspense until the last.
There are a couple of emotionally charged scenes which depict the unenviable position of the under-cover cop. The first is with his boss in police during which both of them have heated arguments about his love affair with the Girish’s sister. He also seeks the answer from his boss as to what he is supposed to do if the police fires at him thinking that he is a gang member. His boss has no answer. The second scene is between the under-cover cop and Girish whom he faces after the latter comes to know about his sister’s love affair with the cop. The scene becomes an anti-climax when, rather than a scene of confrontation, Girish is quite happy about his sister’s choice.
The negative point about the film is that there are couple of songs which work as a speed breaker to the fast-paced progress of the story. These songs appear like item numbers, probably added at the insistence the film’s distributor. Only the title song of the film is appropriate to the theme of the film.
The film has 5 songs including a second version song written by debutant Amitabh Verma and set to music by Viju Shah. I am presenting the first song, ‘chup chaap karten hain baaten’ from the film to appear on the Blog. The song has female and male versions rendered by Sadhana Sargam and Shaan separately. While video clip of the female version of the song is available, I did not find the picturisation of the male version of the song in the film. Probably, it may have have been edited out in the final print.
The female version of the song is picturised on Kay Kay Menon and Jaya Seal as a background song when their love affair is blossoming. In a couple of scenes, Jaya Seal is also seen with Prashant Narayanan who, apart from a hit man of the gang is also her brother in the film. Jaya Seal-Ghosh, is a Bharatnatyam dancer and an actress from Assam. She is an alumnus of NSD and has acted in Hindi, Assamese, Bangla, Odiya, Tamil, Telugu and Kannada films as well as TV serials among others.
Interestingly, there is a verse in the song, ‘khushbuyen aati hain ab mere sapnon se‘ which reminds me of Gulzarian type of imagery in the song, ‘hamne dekhi hai un aankhon ki mehkati khushbu‘ from ‘Khamoshi’ (1969).
