Critic Review
Bank Chor (2017) BANK CHOR is a simple film about three amateur crooks who plan to rob a bank and the situations which arise after their robbery. The film starts off with a Vaastu Shastra believing sloppy thief Champak Chandrakant Chiplunkar (Riteish Deshmukh) along with his two inexperienced accomplices Ghenda (Bhuvan Arora) and Gulab (Vikram Thapa). Citing unavoidable ‘personal reasons’, Champak and his two friends land up to loot the ‘Bank Of Indians’. Seeing the helplessness of the staff and the customers inside the bank after the robbery, Champak has a change of heart and decides to surrender to the police who surround the bank by then. On the other hand, the CBI officer Amjad Khan (Vivek Oberoi) is ‘handed over’ the case. As a part of his plan, Amjad declares that there is an undercover cop who is inside the bank. This creates total unrest amongst everyone inside the bank. On probing, it gets ‘revealed’ that the undercover cop is someone by the name of Jugnu (Sahil Vaid). Just as everyone thinks that the situation is under control, Amjad Khan confesses to his lie about the presence of an undercover cop inside the bank. There’s also a possibility of one more chor hiding inside the bank. Amidst all this, an unexpected twist takes place, thus changing the course of the story completely upside down. Does Amjad Khan manage to catch hold of the real ‘bank chor’, who is the real ‘bank chor’ and what is the real reason behind this bank robbery plot is what forms the rest of the film. - See more at: http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/movie/bankchor/critic-review/#sthash.R4E3D4Zz.dpuf BANK CHOR is a simple film about three amateur crooks who plan to rob a bank and the situations which arise after their robbery.

Bank Chor is a wasted opportunity. It doesn't raise as much as a mild chortle, let alone a hearty chuckle. Not thrilling either despite strenuous efforts, it is a massive chore to watch..

But otherwise, it is too reminiscent of bank-heist movies of the past; there are even clear shoutouts to the Dhoom franchise. A better plan of action and a few dry runs with the script would have ensured a product to bank on..

On the whole, BANK CHOR is a damp squib right from the word go. At the Box-Office, it does not have any potential to score..
