Chingum (also spelled Chingam) (Hindi: चिंगम) is a police inspector, and occasional referree. He believes that no criminal can escape from him. However, Chingum manages to catch criminals merely by luck with the help of Motu and Patlu. Chingum is a solicitous police inspector. He takes pride in the fact that no criminal can ever get away from him or 'escape his web'. A lethal combination of righteous and a hilarious character.




When he fires his gun in the air after saying his dialogue, coconuts fall from the top of his head and makes him fall on the ground. He drives a green motorbike and sometimes also drives a police jeep.

He is voiced by Saurav Chakraborty in Hindi & Naveen in Tamil.

Appearance[]

Chingum

Chingum without his sunglasses and cap.

He is a tall thin man in his thirties. He wears a police uniform with stars and badges decorating it. He has a mustache that reaches a little below his jaw, brown eyes and dark brown silky hair which reaches to his nape. He is sometimes seen chewing gum, thus giving his name. On his left wrist, he used to wear a blue bandana with white dots, though since the show’s recent redesign change, it was replaced with a Smart Watch GT08. It appears he may also be wearing a fitness tracker on his right wrist. In the new redesign, when Chingum is off travelling, he often wears a Hawaiian shirt with a light blue shirt and tie underneath. He also sports a different hairstyle.

Personality[]

Chingum is a friendly and helpful person who always tries his best to catch criminals but lands in trouble. His best friends are Motu and Patlu. Despite this, he can get strict when doing something for the law and will imprison his friends if he sees any evidence against them, which is usually put by John to frame them. He is very energetic and boastful to the point where he likes to make dramatic entries in order to impress his friends. Chingum has a high sense of honor as seen in Motu Patlu Aur Khazana Ki Race when he salutes his jeep after it sinks in the water.

Relationships[]

Chingum carries a pistol for any emergency, and armed havildars to assist him. When he shoots up coconuts tend to fall down onto his. Chingum likes to take advantage of these coconuts via quickly opening them up for people to drink.

Gun[]

Chingum also carries a gun with him at all times. However, Chingum has only used said gun to intimidate criminals, or to summon coconuts. In Furfuri Nagar he has a revolver. In Modern City also he uses a revolver but in later episodes he has a pistol much like his Furfuri Nagar era. During the series' Europe Tour arc Chingum wields a pistol.

House[]

In Furfuri Nagar, he lives in a good house with his parents.

When Furfuri Nagar got transformed into New Modern City he owned a good house.

When they shift to New Modern City he bought a flat in Furfuri Apartment.

During their tour to Europe, Chingum stayed at hotels.

During Indian tour he stayed at Jhatka's Sister Mamata's home and his parents house. He also stayed at hotels.

Police Station

Furfuri Nagar - A good but small Police station.

New Furfuri Nagar - A very good police station.

New Modern City - A redesigned Police station.

Weaknesses[]

When he shoots coconuts with his pistol, they often fall on his head knocking him unconscious. Although he's a skilled police officer Chingum tends to fail at catching criminals and is often very dependent on the help of Motu and Patlu *although he is by no means incompetent*
