Come August, and the people of Pakistan will be celebrating their 73rd Independence Day while Indians will celebrate their own just a day after. Though both the countries have fought a handful wars but one cultural arena that binds at least the Punjabis of both sides, is “Movies”. One such film, “Chal Mera Putt”, has released today starring Amrinder Gill in the lead along with several renowned actors of Pakistan including Iftikhar Thakur, Nasir Chinyoti and Akram Udas!
‘Chal Mera Putt’ is directed by Janjot Singh and co-produced Karaj Gill and Ashu Munish Sahni under the label of Rhythm Boyz Entertainment, Gillz Network and Omjee Star Studios.
Based on the life of Indians and Pakistani illegal immigrants who are living in the city of Birmingham, United Kingdom, Chal Mera Putt explores the struggles they face, the lasting friendships they make and the insurmountable challenges they overcome while trying to get their permanent residency.
A light-hearted slapstick comedy which is taken to impressive heights by the humour generated by Nasir and Akram Udas together, makes ‘Chal Mera Putt’, a cut-above the rest. While Amrinder Gill and Simi Chahal’s cute yet ‘full-of-suspense’ romance keeps the audience engaged till the end, it’s the character artistes like Hardeep Gill and Gurshabd that provide a roller-coaster of emotions to the audience throughout the film.
Though touted as a comedy, Chal Mera Putt has elements of emerging as a complete entertainer, as its story is not an ‘ordinary’ one. It traces the ups and downs of real life while touching on various aspects of human life and their connections. In addition, the movie successfully manages to dive into the Indo-Pak tiff between its common people, and how the realization that even though divided by borders, after all, they are basically all just Punjabis at heart, going through the similar struggles and sufferings of life.
If the Pakistani actors did their job extremely well, the Indians were not left behind. Amrinder Gill kept the audience entertained throughout the film throwing his grace and charm in every frame he featured in. Simi looks absolutely adorable as a decent, educated and responsible girl studying, living and working abroad. Her hairdo and outfits suit her well and her performance is just how it was needed in the movie.
Hardeep Gill as a ‘Dholi’ steals the show with his mature performance and Harshdeep is well-suited in the role of a young illegal migrant. Akram Udas deserves a special mention once again for not just his comic act but showcasing a multi-layered performance effortlessly.
While we were not totally impressed by the cinematography of the film that included some shots perhaps using hand-held cameras? And some strange angles! But the soundtrack album by Dr Zeus and Gurcharan Singh, work in the favour of the movie.
Final Word: ‘Chal Mera Putt’ is too good an entertainer to be missed this weekend. Explore India Pakistan relations in a new light, and while having a good laugh, learn what actually binds the hearts of us ‘Punjabis’ together regardless of which side of the border we come from!
When in 2013, a dark film on student politics was in the making, nobody thought it would end up getting appreciated from all sections of the society with special nod from the critics allover. Starring Kartar Cheema, Gul Panag and Yaad Grewal in the lead, the film was considered quite bold six years back.

Now that the trailer of its sequel has come out, the expectations of the audience from the film are bound to soar high. Whether it’s the varied camera angles, the look of the starcast, the background music or dialogues, the film looks top-notch in all departments. For the action lovers, Sikander 2 would be a treat to watch.
Have a look at its trailer below:
Releasing on August 2, ‘Sikander 2’ is a Manav Shah film. Along with Kartar Cheema and Guri, the movie stars Sawan Rupowali , Nikeet Dhillon , Rahul Jungral , Victor John , Sanjeev Attri , Navdeep Kaler , Karan Battan , Vicky Suvinder and Seema Kaushal.
[h4]A story of an honest police inspector, Dilsher (Parmish Verma) whose mission in life is to bring the perpetrators of heinous crimes to justice, is what the Punjabi Singham seems to be about, after we had a look at its trailer release today. [/h4]

Helmed by Navaniat Singh with its screenplay and dialogues written by Dheeraj Rattan, Punjabi Singham is no different than the original one except that here Singham is a place and not a person.
So, when our fearless cop is sent to a new area, he is challenged by a mafia led by Bhullar (Kartar Cheema). While Bhullar takes pride in keeping the law and the people under his control, Dilsher is determined to unsettle his business and end his tyrant rule.
Talking about Sonam Bajwa’s role, as it is inferred from the trailer, the film has a romantic subplot weaved in its story too. Playing Nikki, Sonam is able to draw attention to herself owing to her perfect screen presence.
On the whole, the trailer of Singham is a winner when it comes to grabbing the eyeballs and generating curiosity among the audience regarding the film. We feel, Parmish suits the role of a tough cop perfectly. Let’s see how it all pans out on August 9 when the film releasing in theatres across the world.
Featuring most of the characters of the film in an emotionally charged 1st chapter (trailer) of Gippy Grewal directorial ‘Ardaas Karan’, the makers have given us a glimpse of what we can expect on 19th July, when the film actually releases.

[h4]Love – one of the most transforming life experiences that a human being goes through – is often explored deeply in movies across the globe. However, when it comes to Punjabi cinema, the focus of the makers has generally been on comedy and family dramas, with love just sprinkled in between to tie things together.
For a change though, in Munda Faridkotia, the feeling of love has been so beautifully dealt with that one wonders if it’s really a Punjabi movie that we’re watching. [/h4]

For a change though, in Munda Faridkotia, the feeling of love has been so beautifully dealt with that one wonders if it’s really a Punjabi movie that we’re watching. [/h4]
Directed by Mandeep Singh Chahal and produced by Dalmora Films and Monty Sikka, Munda Faridkotia is about a boy named ‘Farid’ played by Roshan Prince, who is desperate NOT to leave Faridkot, his hometown ever, even though he gets a wonderful chance to go to Canada on the pretext of his wedding. He wishes hard to stay in Faridkot, and fortunately or unfortunately, he gets his wish fulfilled albeit in a different country.
The circumstances actually land him in Pakistan’s Faridkot and hence ensue a lot of interesting twists in Farid’s life – from meeting his “love” in the form of Mariyam played by Sharan Kaur, his tryst with feelings of patriotism and a lot more.

Having shown Pakistan in a positive light, focusing entirely on the humane side of the country, the makers have made sure that Munda Faridkotia, shall be loved by Pakistani fans too, if and whenver they get a chance to watch the film.
While on one side the film scores big when it comes to its concept and remarkable performances, the slow pace of the film and non-compliance with logic might put off a few. (For example, viewers might wonder, haven’t the makers made it quite easy to cross Indo-Pak border, which is touted as one of the toughest to cross borders in the world?)
Besides its slow pace, the film also suffers a bit on lack of development of some scenes and characters wherein one wanted to see more, but isn’t served with that. For instance, the scene where the two male burqa clad characters try to rescue Farid from the goons is abruptly cut without showing any action and struggle.
Also, when Farid realises his love for the country stronger than his love for Mariyam, nothing really is shown to happen in that direction. The scene is soon cut into something very light and forgettable. That was where one feels that something is missing in the screenplay.
Nevertheless, when it comes to performances, full marks go to all the actors. Roshan Prince not only looks good but he acts immensely well, owning the scene with his charm everytime he comes on the screen. The actor has genuinely played his part well and deserves great roles ahead.
Sharan Kaur emerges as wonderful new heroine that Punjabi cinema has got. The girl has performed so well that it just doesn’t seem that Munda Faridkotia was her first film. Right from her accent, her lovely looks and expressions, she shines everytime she’s on screen.
Navpreet Banga is wonderful in her small role too. In one scene, she cries her heart out and the girl looks so natural that one can easily feel the character’s pain. Karamjit Anmol is great in his part and so are the rest of the actors.
Overall, Munda Faridkotia is truly a ‘hatke’ film for Punjabi cinema that’s used to watching comedies. It’s a film for the heart that loves and knows the pain that comes along with it.

From the trailer, DSP Dev seems to be a film about a police officer DSP Dev (played by Dev Kharoud) who is honest and wants to completely eradicate crime from the city. He also meets a girl who he falls in love with but amidst all this, he is transferred to a new location where law and order is in real bad shape.
In his fight against crime and dishonesty though, Dev himself gets trapped and is accused of being dishonest. How he fights for justice and comes clean, for that we’ll have to watch the film in the theatre.
Watch the trailer of DSP Dev below. The film releases on 5th July worldwide:
