Chopratown is a comedy drama from the BBC about private eye Vic Chopra. In the film Chopra investigates Ali Ergun, a shady Turkish bakery owner. During his investigation he falls foul of Asian wide boy Ash Desai and added to this is the mystery of a missing cow. Chopratown was directed by Sean Grundy, who also directed the first series of the Channel 4 drama Sugar Rush. The name "Chopratown" is a pun on the Jack Nicholson cult film Chinatown.
Directed by Anil Gupta, Sharat Sardana, Chopratown leans on a strong ensemble — Natalie Casey, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Neil Stuke — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2005.
