Due to its delayed release of trailer, ASHKE became the hot favorite subject for film pundits in Punjab. Speculations had been ranging from filmmakers strategic publicity move, to late censor board certification and so on. Whatever be the inside truth, the reality today is that ASHKE has managed to create a STRONG impact on the Punjabi audience allover the globe with its sheer uniqueness and entertainment value. This love story with Bhangra as a backdrop has appealed to the masses and that’s what matters afterall, in the end.
After a slow first day start, ASHKE has escalated to new heights with many of its shows SOLD OUT overseas. The magic of Bhangra has wrapped everyone in it and we expect this film to go a long way ahead.
Here’s the team of Iampunjaabi.com offering BEST WISHES to the team of Rhythm Boyz Entertainment and OMJEE group. Such movies should be encouraged and made more often.
Take a look at the worldwide response the film is getting. We’ll keep sharing more as we receive. Team Iampunjaabi is always in favour of supporting Punjabi cinema as much as possible.
As the movie release date gets closer, the makers of the film generally release its trailers, dialogue promos or teasers to keep the public engaged but the team of Rhythm Boyz Entertainment has taken a detour from normal and perhaps, their latest offering ASHKE (releasing on 27th July) becomes the first-ever Punjabi film to get released without a trailer!

However, it seems this promotional strategy has paid off pretty well as the whole internet is abuzz with the talks of ASHKE’s trailer – yes, a trailer that doesn’t exist! Could this be a part of a well-strategized promotion plan? As if this is not enough, public is equally busy, finding clues within the official posters of ASHKE, with one of them showing Amrinder Gill breaking into a cool Bhangra step and another one with a whole team of turbanators dressed alike in uniform, wherein veteran actor Jaswinder Bhalla carries a golden trophy in hand.
While Amrinder Gill’s still dance movement is breaking the internet as of now, the sources have revealed that ASHKE is a film based on Punjab’s folk dance Bhangra. The story is about a Bhangra team of Khalsa College in Amritsar — a team that is full of energy, enthusiasm, zeal and passion to do something good and big.
Though a vast number of people are hoping something really positive from Rhythm Boyz Entertainment yet again – a production house behind biggest blockbusters like Bambukat, Angrej, Love Punjab, Lahoriye, Vekh Baraatan Challiyan and Golak Bugni Bank Te Batua, a few have come up with negative speculations as well, writing about the delay in the trailer in a derogatory manner.
However, the team of Rhythm Boyz Entertainment have laughed off the speculations saying that like always the Punjabi audience is in for a Big surprise. “We’re glad that people are writing about ASHKE even without us paying them any money. While most producers spend dollops on media publicity, we are getting it for free.”
As for ASHKE’s cast, for the part of Amrinder Gill’s leading lady, TV actor Sanjeeda Ali Sheikh is making her Punjabi debut. Made under the banners of the Rhythm Boyz Entertainment and Hayre Omjee Studios, the films stars Jaswinder Bhalla, Hobby Dhaliwal, Vandana Chopra, Sarabjeet Cheema and Gurshabad as well. The music of the film is composed by ace music director, Jatinder Shah, and the story, screenplay and dialogues have been written by Dheeraj Rattan. According to reports, the film has been shot in Amritsar and Canada.
The most amazing thing that has happened in our industry is the acceptance of Binnu Dhillon as the lead role by our big-hearted audience!
The most amazing thing that has happened in our industry is the acceptance of Binnu Dhillon as the lead role by our big-hearted audience!
The brilliant actor, who was once seen as just a comedian, is now giving blockbusters as the “male lead” and winning hearts allover! After giving superhits like Vekh Baraatan Challiyaan and recently, Vadhayiyaan Ji Vadhayiyaan, our industry’s top heroines have started showing interest in working along with Binnu as his leading lady.
The name that has come forth in the last couple of days is that of Lahoriye and Angrej famed, Sargun Mehta, who’s not just joining Binnu in the acting department but also in the production as well. Yes, Sargun has launched her open production house – DREAMITYATA ENTERTAINMENT and the upcoming film, titled Kala Shah Kala, will be her joint venture with Binnu’s Naughty Men Productions.
Written and directed by Amarjit Singh, the movie for the first time will bring Sargun and Binnu together. Binnu took to his social media handle to share the quirky title poster of the movie:
Besides the lead pair, nothing much has been revealed about the movie as of now. Earlier there were rumours that Kajal Aggarwal will be making her Punjabi debut with ‘Kala Shah Kala’ but now the rumours have settled and Sargun has been confirmed for the role.
When Mr and Mrs 420 released in 2014, the entire Punjabi film industry was taken in by surprise by the cash registers the movie set ringing at the box-office!

Now after a wait of four years, the sequel of this blockbuster flick is coming and its trailer is just out!
Our first thoughts: Lit!! Yes, just like the first hysterical installment, the trailer of the second part also suggests to give the audience a big scoop of comedy. With the same theme of gender role-reversals, ‘Mr & Mrs 420 Returns’ is also expected to give a nice family comedy to Punjabi viewers.
Directed by Ksshitij Chaudhary of fame – Vekh Baraatan Challiyan and recently, Golak, Bugni, Bank te Batua, the movie’s starcast includes Jassie Gill, Ranjit Bawa, Jaswinder Bhalla, Gurpreet Ghuggi, Payal Rajput and Avantika Hundal.
WATCH THE TRAILER OF MR and MRS 420 RETURNS
The best part about the trailer is surely the female avatars of two of the male actors. For those wishing to see Jassie Gill in a clean-shaven look, their wish has finally come true, albeit in a more feminine way! Yes, this Jassie Gill will play one of the male-turned-into-female characters along with the very cute, Karamjit Anmol. (Remember, Jassie Gill didn’t get a chance to show “the feminine” side of him in the first part!)
The entry of Ranjit Bawa in this installment seems to be an added bonus. His cute expressions were loved in VBC, and we hope the actor will deliver something worth remembering in Mr and Mrs 420 Returns as well.
Kudos to Friday Russh Motion Pictures’ Rrupaali Gupta for keeping her promise and doling the much-in-demand 2nd installment of Mr and Mrs 420 well in time!
The film releases on 15th August 2018. Enjoy this Independence Day with our Punjabi stars, laughing out till the stomach aches.
Kulwinder Billa, a Punjabi singer who made his acting debut earlier this year in Gippy Grewal’s Subedar Joginder Singh is ready to make his debut as a lead hero in a film called Parahuna.
Kulwinder Billa, a Punjabi singer who made his acting debut earlier this year in Gippy Grewal’s Subedar Joginder Singh is ready to make his debut as a lead hero in a film called Parahuna.
The release date of the movie was kept under wraps for a while. However, today it has been announced along with the second poster. . The movie will release on 5th October, 2018.

When it comes to Amrinder Gill’s films, there’s always some mystery involved. Apart from some out-of-the-box stories, the way his films’ promotions are done, is equally unique as well. The latest example is ASHKE, which is releasing on 27th of this month and has no trailer yet!

Surprised? At a time when movies release their teasers or trailers more than a month before the release date, the Rhythm Boyz Entertainment has taken the road less trodden this time.
The movie stars Amrinder Gill and a renowned TV actress Sanjeeda Ali Shaikh in the lead roles. Directed by Amberdeep Singh, ASHKE comes under the banner of Rhythm Boyz Entertainment and Hayre Omjee Studios. Rhythm Boyz Entertainment has carved a niche in Ballewood for rolling out family entertainers with a uniquely weaved story everytime. Be it Bambukat, Lahoriye, Angrej, Love Punjab, Vekh Baraatan Challiyan or Golak Bugni Bank Te Batua, these movies are forever etched in the hearts of any ardent Punjabi cinema fan.
A few days ago, the ASHKE team released its first poster showcasing a team of formally dressed men with the ‘Jaswinder Bhalla’ holding a trophy in his hands. Right after that the excitement and curiosity level among the fans for this film has increased manifold. All want to know the concept of the movie desperately and are making their own guesses. The trophy in the hands Jaswinder Bhalla suggests a team-based victory, but victory of what? A sports or a Bhangra competition? Sure, the makers have left a lot for the imagination of the audience.
Now coming to the point – when is the trailer releasing? Well, keep checking this space to get the latest updates on this subject. We’re hoping that the Filmmakers shall end the nail-biting curiosity of the cinema lovers and release ASHKE’s trailer soon!
