Dusshehra – the festival preceding the biggest festival of lights in India – Diwali, turned out to be the blackest day in the history of Punjab yesterday with two trains ruthlessly mowing down innocent people watching the Ravana effigy burning at Joda Phatak area of Choura Bazar. 

While we are not sure whom to blame really for this tragedy, all we can say is that this is the moment to stay united and help as much as possible through whatever means we can. Even our Punjabi film fraternity is not left behind urging people to donate blood, providing helpline numbers and most importantly, offering condolences to the families of deceased.

Here we list down the reactions of prominent personalities of Punjabi cinema when they learnt about this tragedy.

One actor in our industry, who knows how to make anyone laugh, cry at any point in time through his impeccable performances, Aman Kotish, has been doing theatre since a long time now. One can consider him in the capacity of an actor and a model who has worked for cinema and television both. 

The list of movies, television series and the songs Aman has worked in is endless. From Mitti Na Phrol Jogiya, 25 Kille, Rupinder Gandhi 2 The Robinhood, Bhar and Sada Ghar (Short Stories) to a bollywood movie Gold with Akshay Kumar, and TV series like Paltan (DD National) and Warish (Z Salaam TV), Aman has an experience of both the big screen and the small screen.

Aman Kotish has worked in near about eighty music videos and to name a few, Diljit Dosanjh’s Jatt Fire Karda, Harf Cheema’s Vaardaat, Dilpreet Dhillon’s Gundey Returns, Kaur B’s Z Security, Kamal Khan’s Ishq DI Reet, Veet Baljit and Laddi Gills’ Kabootari, Anmolpreet’s Saahaan Varge Yaar, Gora Chakwala’s Tour 2, Harry Brar’s Tahrian, Davinder Sandhu’s Jatt Case Mout and Harjot’s Asla.

Jassie Gill, Ranjit Bawa and Ninja are soon going to feature on the big screen in a Punjabi film called, High-End Yaariyaan! High-End Yaariyaan was in the news for quite some time for being famous director Pankaj Batra’s maiden film as a producer. 

Jassie Gill made the announcement of the film’s title on his social media today and quenched the curiosity of his fans, who were longing to see him in a fresh Punjabi film after his outing in Bollywood (Happy Phir Bhaag Jaayegi.) Jassie Gill had also impressed earlier this year with his performance as ‘Radha’ in Mr and Mrs 420 returns.

As far as Ninja is concerned, this is going to be his second film after Channa Mereya – the much acclaimed remake of Marathi film ‘Sairat’. Along with Payal Rajput, Ninja stole the hearts of Punjabi audience with his tremendous acting. 

Just like Gill, Ranjit Bawa was last seen in Mr and Mrs 420 Returns too wherein he effortlessly played the role of a drug-addict. Even though it was just a comedy film, Bawa’s role was complex and he performed it exceedingly well. 

A few days ago the grapevine also suggested that Diamond famed Gurnam Bhullar will also star in High-End Yaariyaan. Let’s see what all surprises Pankaj Batra has in store for all of us. 

The film will be produced by Pankaj Batra Films, Pitaara Talkies and Speed Records and will get released on 22nd February. From the first poster, we get a feeling that High-End Yaariyaan is going to be a story based on the bonding between three friends. Hindi Film ‘Dil Chahta Hai’ immediately comes to the mind after thinking a bit more about it. What do you think? Do let us know!

First time in the last two years, 2019 will witness the clash between two much – awaited Ballewood movies!

The memory tracing back to 2016 when we all movie lovers faced a serious dilemma of whether to watch ‘Love Punjab’ or ‘Ardaas’ has still not faded, and the history is all set to repeat itself on April 12, 2019 with Manje Bistre 2 and another untitled film (a little birdie on the sets revealed it’s a BIG one) from the makers of super-successful films – Mr and Mrs 420 series, scheduled to be released on the same day.

Written by Gippy Grewal and directed by Baljit Singh Deo, Manje Bistre 2 will be the sequel to the one of the most earning Ballewood movies in the box office, Manje Bistre (2017). The movie stars Simi Chahal instead of Sonam Bajwa and is being produced under the banner of Humble Motion Pictures. A family drama movie, the plot of Manje Bistre 2 revolves around the rich culture of Punjab.

On the contrary, the yet untitled project to be released on the same day is reportedly, based on a controversial issue – the exact nature of which isn’t yet revealed. Produced by Rrupaali Gupta of Friday Russh Motion Pictures, who is coming up with another film ‘Ooda Aida’, starring Neeru Bajwa and Tarsem Jassar, we can safely assume the film will be strong enough to give competition to Gippy’s Manje Bistre 2. 

With both the movies releasing on the same date, the big question is: which of the two will become an immortal gem of the Ballewood industry? Let’s wait & watch!

Subedar Joginder Singh may not have been a box-office success, but it has certainly given a new direction to many actors’ career who either acted in it after a long time or debuted in it.

Be it Kulwinder Billa (Who recently gave a hit like ‘Parahuna’), Harish Verma (who did a meaty role after long and immediately after SJS gave a hit called Golak Bugni Bank Te Batua), Roshan Prince (who’s now doing two promising film projects), Jordan Sandhu (now doing Kala Shah Kala), and now the latest one being Rajvir Jawandha. 

Popular singer Rajvir Jawandha made his debut this year in a supporting role in SJS. From there he got recognition from the film fraternity which led him to bagging his debut project ‘Mahi Ve’ as the lead. The shooting of ‘Mahi Ve’ has just begun. 

Rajvir Jawanda shared this news with his fans on Instagram. Check out his post here:

Gurnam Bhullar is surely in news for bagging one film after another. Ever since the news of his doing a film with Sonam Bajwa started doing the rounds, this guy is signing films after films. 

In August Gurnam Bhullar shared the news of making his debut in Punjabi cinema with ‘Surkhi Bindi’ opposite Sonam Bajwa, and now he has shared the poster of his second project ‘Vilaiti Yantra’. Gurnam Bhullar will be sharing the screen space with Aman Sandhu in the movie.

Not only this, he’s also featuring along with Ninja, Jassie Gill and Ranjit Bawa in a yet untitled project – a Pankaj Batra’s maiden production. 

Gurnam Bhullar took it to his social media handle to share the poster with his fans. According to Gurnam, ‘Vilaiti Yantra’ is a unique concept that lured him. Check out his post here:

Being directed by Ranjit Bal, the movie’s producer is Naresh Singla. Karan Sandhu and Neeraj Kumar are the scriptwriters. The shooting of the same has already gone on the floors; but the release date is yet kept under the wrap.
