Ravi Kumar is a famous film star and a kind man too. For the sake of his old friendship he works in the film of his friend, Mani Babu. The film is Mani Babu's life ambition, Through it, he is determined to unearth the wicked deeds of a man, who in the disguise of a sadhu exploits thousands of ignorant people, including women. But when the 'wicked man' comes to know of Mani Babu's film, he hatches a plot to kill Mani Babu. Ironically Ravi is accused for the murder of his friend.

Ravi absconds and reaches at the den of Dacoit Sher Singh, a lion of lions, who when sees Ravi Kumar jumps to his feet because he is a fan of the matinee idol. For him it turns out to be a day of merry making.

Ravi relates his pathic story to Sher Singh, who helps him to save his life.

AND FROM HERE BEGINS CHAKKAR PE CHAKKAR.

However, the two bid their best to catch the Swamiji. But all their plans are foiled. On the contrary, in a cunning move, Ravi Kumar is seized by goondas. This makes Sher Singh restless.

On the other hand, Ravi's charming beloved, ShilaSahini, a film journalist, is also distressed on learning the kidnapping of Ravi.

But who won in the end?
Truth or evil! How do human relations change and how do people react under the pressure in a mood of utter excitement? How everybody criss crosses each other at every turn?

To answer these all questions is CHAKKAR PE CHAKKAR, the spectacularly produced motion picture, full of comedy, emotions and breath taking suspense, the kind of which you have never watched on the Indian silver screen todate.
