Charlie Chopra trailer

The Charlie Chopra trailer opens with Jimmy (Vivaan Shah) visiting his uncle Brigadier Meherbaan Rawat's bungalow located in a snow-covered location. As they sit for a game of chess, Jimmy is able to checkmate his uncle who is murdered the same night. Jimmy is targeted as the predictable accused as his hotel keys are found at the bungalow and he is absconding. As Wamiqa's Charlie Chopra enters the crime scene to investigate the murder, several dark secrets are expected in the closet with Gulshan's entire family eyeing his money.

The trailer summary read: 'A rich man dead, a town full of suspects, narratives filled with lies and an innocent convict. How will Charlie navigate through the mystery when every face hides a secret?'

Reacting to the trailer on YouTube, many called it a “masterpiece” in the comments section. A person wrote, “Thank god sir we desperately needed you Vishal sahab, so excited.”
