Often touted as “foodie’s paradise”, Amritsar – the holy city of Punjab, has been a subject of interest for many artists, poets, writers and painters. However, nobody in Punjabi cinema has quite captured the essence of the holy city as perhaps the team of Chandigarh-Amritsar-Chandigarh led by director Karan R Guliani.

However, nobody in Punjabi cinema has quite captured the essence of the holy city as perhaps the team of Chandigarh-Amritsar-Chandigarh led by director Karan R Guliani.
The makers of Chandigarh-Amritsar-Chandigarh, which releases on May 24, have rolled out its teaser today. Watching it, we can safey assume that it’s not a regular famiy drama but in fact, a proper romcom featuring two of the most loved actors of Punjabi cinema – Gippy Grewal and Sargun Mehta!
In this small teaser, just one dialogue exchange between the lead pair confirms that the film is about an outsider’s tryst with Amritsari culture, the city of “khaada peeda” and then a development of romance between the lead characters. While the trailer shall divulge more details, the teaser is going to hook the audience in the meantime.

Helmed by Karan R Guliani, the movie has been produced by Sumit Dutt, Anupama Katkar and Eara Dutt. This romantic comedy is slated to hit the Pollywood box office on May 24, 2019.
Simple, warm and so very fresh despite being a period drama – that’s the feeling I get after watching the trailer of Muklawa, a film releasing on May 24 starring Ammy Virk and Sonam Bajwa in the lead. It is produced by renowned production house, Whitehill Studios and directed by Simerjit Singh.

[h4] Watch the trailer and read our review below: [/h4]
One look at the trailer and you’re sure to fall in love with the innocence of people of the bygone era when relationships were regarded as sacred and pious, and everything, inlcluding a husband-wife relationship needed a proper “sanction” from the society! So, in those times mere a marriage ceremony wasn’t enough to cement the nuptial bond, an elaborate ritual of ‘Muklawa’ needed to be performed as well which meant husband/wife living apart from each other despite being “officially” married.
Even nowadays this ceremony is held but right after the wedding day itself, pretty short waiting time as compared to one full year in those times!
Now talking things from cinematic perspective, Muklawa’s trailer succeedingly leaves an impact on us owing to its fresh storyline. Without being too loud, the trailer manages to convey that you can expect this film to be a healthy mix of light-hearted humour and emotions. As inferred from the trailer, Muklawa seems to be a story of innocence transmuted into rebellion in youth versus elderly determination to not change their opinions and attitude on set traditions.
Who will win in the end? The youth logic or the age-old tradition? For that we’ll have to watch Muklawa on May 24 in the theatre itself.
As far as the characters’ looks are concerned, both Ammy and Sonam exude simplicity of old times through both their outfits and body language.
Helmed by Simerjit Singh and produced by Gunbir Singh Sidhu and Manmord Sidhu, in ‘Muklawa’, along with Ammy Virk and Sonam Bajwa, the movie also features Gurpreet Ghuggi, BN Sharma, Karamjit Anmol, Sarbjit Cheema, Drishtii Garewal and Nirmal Rishi.

Punjabis are seen to be very active in the North American country, Canada; so much that Canada now has the world’s most Sikh cabinet and Punjabi is the third – most spoken language in that country. So, spearheading the team of Ballewood’s blockbuster movie, Manje Bistre, Gippy Grewal decided to make the sequel of the movie in ‘Mini Punjab.
When asked about his inspiration behind shooting the sequel of Manje Bistre in Canada, Gippy affirmed, “I have often attended Punjabi weddings in Canada and irrespective of the marriage being held in a foreign location, I have seen all the Punjabi rituals being followed in utmost zeal and verve. Guests are seen to be dressed in traditional ethnic attires and every ritual as per the culture is carried out. This is where I got the idea to shoot the sequel to the second part of ‘Manje Bistre’ in Canada.”
While the first part of Manje Bistre made ripples of success in Ballewood, the second part has successfully sustained the hype with just a few days left to the release. Produced & written by Gippy Grewal under the label of Humble Motion Pictures, the movie features Gippy Grewal, Simi Chahal, Gurpreet Ghuggi, Karamjit Anmol, BN Sharma, Sardar Sohi, and Hobby Dhaliwal in pivotal roles.
“Set up in the backdrop of traditional Punjabi wedding, Manje Bistre 2 was shot in Canada and it was a truly enchanting experience. It is not only a comedy movie but it also pays an ode to our rich culture and heritage,” shared Gippy in an exclusive interview to Iampunjaabi.com.
“I clearly remember that when we were shooting the movie, many Canadians got so enticed by the happenings that they stayed back and enjoyed the shoot,” he further reminisces while providing a sneak-peak into the Manje Bistre 2’s shoot in Canada.
Giving Punjab’s rich culture and heritage a ‘global’ touch, the movie is all set to hit to the silver screen on April 12, 2019. It is going to be the first time when Gippy Grewal and Simi Chahal will be seen sharing the screen space. So, this Baisakhi celebrate our culture with the big fat ‘Punjabi’ wedding!

When the teaser of Nadhoo Khan was released a few days ago, expectations went soaring high from its makers as it denoted sheer cinematic brilliance. Also the fact that the film is touted as the first period Punjabi film to be shot in ‘wide-frame’, it’s natural to pin hopes on it to deliver something really outstanding.

Now that the trailer of Nadhoo Khan is out, one can comfortably assume that this one is going to be a class-apart film with not just eye-candy shots, good-looking actors, delightful background score but also a strong storyline as well.
Featuring Harish Verma and Wamiqa Gabbi in the lead, the film is about a man called ‘Nadhoo Khan’, who is shown to be a wrestler belonging to the pre-independence era. The trailer shows how Nadhoo is a simpleton – a village boy inclined towards light-hearted side of life (Friendships, humour, romance) in the early part of the film but awakened all of a sudden by the elderly men of his family who expect him to be a top-notch wrestler completely focused on his sport.
Without revealing the storyline much in the trailer, the makers have conveyed a message. A message that Nadhoo Khan (directed by Imran Sheikh) is not to be taken lightly at all. It seems to be a well-made film – capable of being loved by the audience that yearns for cinema providing a good mix of entertainment and cultural awareness. The song ‘Multan’ from the film has already won praise on the Internet and suggests a possible link to Pakistan’s Punjab in the movie.
If you’re not bored of period movies, Nadhoo Khan is definitely a film to look forward to. The film presents a fresh jodi of ‘Harish Verma and Wamiqa Gabbi’ on-screen and this is Harish Verma’s first period movie.
Produced by Loudroar films and Music Tym Productions, Nadhoo Khan releases on April 26.
When Gippy-Sargun’s Chandigarh-Amritsar-Chandigarh’s release date was announced a few weeks back, it was assumed that it might get shifted as it was clashing head on with another big film – Ammy-Sargun’s starrer – Muklawa (produced by Whitehill Studios). However, now since the team of CAC has officially released its first-look poster, only a few days after Muklawa’s, it’s confirmed that the clash is going to happen for sure.

Noted Film Critic Taran Adarsh shared the release date of CAC today itself.
Few days back Whitehill Studios also released the first-look poster of Muklawa:
It may be noted here that Muklawa’s release date was earlier told to be 3rd May. However, just a day after the release date of Dlljit Dosanjh’s Hindi film – Arjun Patiala was announced (which is now postponed to July 19!), Whitehill Studios postponed Muklawa for a May 24 release (the date which was earlier booked by another Punjabi film – Shadaa. Shadaa is now releasing on 21st June).

With just a few days left for the release of the much-awaited Punjabi movie, Manje Bistre 2, Punjabis across the globe are seen to be rejoicing over the musical melodies of the movie. The sequel of family drama romantic movie, Manje Bistre (2017), the movie “celebrates the rich culture and heritage of Punjab along with a tinge of comedy in the backdrop of a normal Punjabi family in Canada,” shares Gippy Grewa exclusively to iampunjaabi.com.
Speaking about the inspiration behind Manje Bistre 2, Gippy shares, “I have also noticed this thing in abroad that Punjabis are staying true to our rich culture & heritage whole-heartedly. However, the sheen seems to be lost in our mother land. This revelation came to me when I attended a marriage in America, wherein they did jaago in truck which inspired me to think that why don’t we do a similar kind of a thing for collecting manje bistre and that is how Manje Bistre 2 happened in Canada.”
Watch the interview with Gippy Grewal about Manje Bistre here:

Shooting the movie in Canada was not really a bed of roses because “the things that we wanted to show on the silver screen were not practically possible like trucks carrying manje bistre,” informs Gippy.
“There were certain locations in Canada which didn’t allow tractors on the roads which came as a major challenge because we were supposed to take permission from the concerned authority. When we tried to seek permission, they allotted us certain particular roads but it wasn’t matching our requirements. Moreover, we really wanted to shoot a scene in Thompson Street, Vancouver but we couldn’t get permission and they warned that if we would try shooting there, they will take our cameras. So, on our last day, I along with Karamjit Anmol decided to take the plunge and do our shoot there. To our awe, many foreigners gathered at the venue and started dancing with us during the shoot and fortunately, even the concerned authorities approved for the same,” he adds.
Directed by Baljit Singh Deo, Manje Bistre 2 is all set to release on April 12, 2019. The movie also stars Simi Chahal, Gurpreet Ghuggi, Karamjit Anmol, BN Sharma, Sardar Sohi, and Hobby Dhaliwal in pivotal roles. It is being distributed worldwide by White Hill Studios.
