A period drama with the Indo-Pak partition of 1947 as its backdrop, ‘Yaara Ve’ is all set to take us all down a memory lane to the times when India and Pakistan were one and there was only one ‘Punjab’.
It’s a film celebrating the spirit of friendship of three guys played by Yuvraj Hans, Gagan Kokri and Raghvir Boli that goes through the test of times. The female lead is played by Monica Gill (who’s worked in films like Ambarsaria, Kaptaan and more).
Rakesh Mehta, the director of ‘Yaara Ve’ (who has earlier directed critically-acclaimed films like Waapsi and Rang Panjab) remarked, “When I decided to make ‘Yaara Ve’, I wanted to make it as real as it can be. From selecting the locations and working on each and every thing used, to all the costumes, I was personally involved in everything.”
When asked as to what kind of preparations were done to depict the times of about 75 years ago on the big screen, the director added, “We have paid keen attention to make an extensive set to reflect the times of 1940s. Instead of going to places like Ganganagar and some villages around Rajasthan, we actually made a set, complete with old-style houses. Yaara Ve’s essence is not limited to just the characters but the location and the whole village, which play a very significant role in the story. And, now I think, we have done our best and people will definitely go down the memory lane”, he added
[h4]Produced by Bally Singh Kakar of Gordon Bridge Pvt. Ltd. in association with Freshly Ground Entertainment Pvt. Ltd, Yaara Ve is directed by Rakesh Mehta and shall be distributed by Munish Sahni’s Omjee Group. The film hits the theatres on 5th April 2019.[/h4]

[h4]‘Kala Shah Kala’ is written and directed by Amarjit Singh and is set to release on 14th February 2019.[/h4]
While talking about her first collaboration with Binnu Dhillon in Kala Shah Kala, Sargun told us in an exclusive interview that she feels that she was always destined to play the role of ‘Pammi’ in this film.
She said, “When, Amarjit Singh wrote ‘Kala Shah Kala’, interestingly, he narrated it to me before anybody else. I had really liked the story but could not say yes because I had already committed to some other projects. There’s an incident from during the shoot of Jindua which I recall now and realise that this was meant to be my role all along. I was asked by a fan what’s my next project. I had signed nothing so I just said ‘Next film???…’ and suddenly Kala Shah Kala song started playing in the background. I still have that video with me. I may have realised it quite late but I was meant to play Pammi all along”.
“You see, some seven years ago, when I was still working on television; I was offered a show on a leading channel. I had to play the lead in this show which had similar concept, like ‘Kala Shah Kala’. In fact we had also shot the pilot for the show but the things could not materialise eventually due to some date issues. Now, when I look back at it, this story has had some significance in my career all along”, she added.
‘Kala Shah Kala’ is written and directed by Amarjit Singh and is set to release on 14th February 2019.

Binnu Dhillon, who’s playing a dusky complexioned guy in Kala Shah Kala, posted a still of his from the movie a few days ago on his social media. While he looked almost unrecognizable in the deep dark skin tone, one look at his feet left us wondering! His hands and face were all dark, but the feet apparently were left with any amount of makeup.
Before jumping on to conclusions, we decided to ask the actor directly and he laughed to say, “During Kala Shah Kala, it took me more than an hour to get ready for a single shot. The makeup took so much time. So, in some scenes where my full profile was not required, I used to ask the makeup team to only cover my face and hands with makeup, to save the time. I shared one such still from the shoot, with my followers on social media but let me tell you, that scene in the film won’t show my feet. It’s only my upper body which you’ll see in the movie.”
See the said Still From Kala Shah Kala
Well, Binnu ji thanks for clarifying that point. We can’t obviously wait to see the scene in the movie itself on 14th Feb.
Kala Shah Kala, which is releasing on 14th February – (this Valentine’s Day) has been bankrolled by Harsimran Dhillon, GS Dhillon, Navaniat Singh, Achal Kaushal, Karan Soni and Binnu Dhillon, with Lakhwinder Singh, and Ashish Saini as the co-producers. Besides Binnu Dhillon, Sargun Mehta and Jordan Sandhu in the lead, the movie stars Karamjit Anmol, Harby Sangha, Nirmal Rishi, BN Sharma, Gurmeet Saajan, Anita Devgan, and Shahnaz Gill in pivotal roles.
Neeru Bajwa who is awaiting the release of her first Punjabi film of 2019 – UDA AIDA (Releasing on 1st Feb), is doing everything possible to make her fans aware about the significance of the film.

Neeru Bajwa who is awaiting the release of her first Punjabi film of 2019 – UDA AIDA (Releasing on 1st Feb), is doing everything possible to make her fans aware about the significance of the film. From playing “Punjabi language tests” in interviews to talking about her own life story, her daughter’s Punjabi speaking abilities to speaking about the prejudice that she, despite being a highly successful Punjabi actress, has faced, she revealed it all during her candid promotional interviews.
Talking to Iampunjaabi.com, Neeru Bajwa said, “I do not understand the psyche of our own people when it comes to our mother-tongue. Why do we feel ashamed talking in our own language. I feel fortunate that even though I have been born and brought up in Canada, my parents made sure that I speak only Punjabi at home. That’s the same I am doing with my three year old daughter now. Both me and my husband have made it a point that she listens to Punjabi music – especially the legends like Gurdas Mann, speaks in Punjabi at home and even during my India visits, I try to keep a Punjabi tutor for her while I am away on shoots. I guess, parenting plays a big role here.”
Speaking about the prejudice that she herself faced for working in Punjabi cinema, Neeru recalls, “I was so appalled once when some Punjabis came to me and said ‘we don’t watch Punjabi movies at all, but yeah we’ve watched your ‘Jatt and Juliet’. For me, it was like ‘are they complimenting me or insulting my choice of working in Punjabi films?”
“It’s sad to see such a treatment against our mother-tongue. Learning international languages isn’t bad. In fact, it’s good for your career but insulting your mother-tongue and feeling humiliated by speaking it, is a phenomenon that completely baffles me,” she adds.
Check out some of Neeru Bajwa’s ‘Countdown’ posts here. Looks she’s really excited about the movie. Isn’t it?
