Chaman Bahaar (2020) The film is set in the small town of Chattisgarh. Billu(Jitendra Kumar) is a small-time panwala who opens his shop in a deserted road where nothing much happens. One fine day, a family moves into a house opposite his shop. A girl named Rinku(Ratika Badianai) lives there and it is love at first sight for Billu. Within no time, Rinku becomes quite popular in her town, and to woo her, all the youngsters in the village land up at Billu’s shop. Though Rinku’s business grows multiple folds, he has competition from many in that area to win Rinku. Will Billu propose his love to Rinku? What obstacles does he face? That forms the rest of the story..

While the cast across board pulls off a good performance, Jitendra Kumar is definitely the high point of ‘Chaman Bahar’. He nails every mood and nuance of his character wonderfully blending into the small town milieu without a blip. Another impeccable.
