Amar Singh Chamkila Trailer: Diljit Dosanjh-Parineeti Chopra Is About Punjab`s First Rockstar
With OTT being synonymous with great content, we cannot wait to binge-watch some upcoming movies. One of the films that has been highly anticipated is Imtia Ali`s Amar Singh Chamkila, headlined by Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra. The movie revolves around Punjab`s first ever rockstar and his contribution to Punjabi music.
On Thursday, March 28, Netflix revealed the trailer for Amar Singh Chamkila, and it has already left fans excited for more. The film narrates the untold true story of Punjab`s original rockstar of the masses.
Diljit Dosanjh will be seen playing the role of Chamkila, while Parineeti Chopra will play his on-screen wife, Amarjot. For the uninitiated, Chamkila was the highest-selling artist of his time and redefined Punjabi music in the 1980s.
His way of expressing opinions through music angered many, eventually leading to his brutal assassination at the young age of 27.

However, he paves the way to success as his music finds resonance among the villagers, especially with women. While many appreciate his audacity, others criticize and object to his obscene lyrics.
Later, he finds a singing and life partner in Amarjot Kaur (Parineeti Chopra).
The music for Amar Singh Chamkila is composed by Grammy winner AR Rahman, with Irshad Kamil penning the lyrics. The audience will yet again see the trio, Rahman-Imtiaz Ali-Kamil, recreate musical magic after nine years. The three maestros will come together after Tamasha`s melodious success.
Two songs from the album are already out - Ishq Mitaye and Naram Kaalja - and have received great reviews.
“Stories of young musicians that challenge the norms of society, who see unprecedented success and then have violent ends, are unfortunately a worldwide phenomenon," Imtiaz said.
