There are always some exceptionally talented actors that people admire the most and when they are put together as a couple, they make wonders. Similarly, our favourite couple Gippy Grewal and Neeru Bajwa are back again with extra enthusiasm after a long haul of 12 years. And needless to say, the duo has proved that it was certainly worth the wait!
Their latest Punjabi movie, Paani Ch Madhaani has set new benchmarks by grossing a whooping amount of 2.45 Crores on its first day of the release.
Shaheen Mittal from Canada shared, “I was super excited about watching Paani Ch Madhaani as soon as I watched its trailer and discovered that it stars Neeru Bajwa and Gippy Grewal together. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the movie. The entire star cast including Gurpreet Ghuggi, Karamjit Anmol, Harby Sangha, and Iftikhar Thakur have done a prolific job!”
Talking about the looks of the characters, as the film is set in the 1980s, the designers and artists should definitely be praised as they nailed it and totally transformed our modern actors into something so far-fetched that the fans might have ever thought of. The hairdo is disparate and might have definitely taken a lot of effort to be the perfect for their 80s look.
And not to forget, the movie’s foot-tapping music is worth a mention. With the passing film, the music is yet another very important point to be noted, which is atypical to the retro era of Punjab. The songs are such that one would not stop his feet of shaking. The director of the music Jatinder Shah satisfies the ears by all means, the use of retro instruments banjo and accordian makes us culpable for them to be extinct.
“I think it is not only the movie, but also the music that made Paani Ch Madhaani so much fun. I would like to applaud their entire team for releasing such a master piece!” affirmed Delhi-based designer, Gurleen Tiwana.
Paani Ch Madhaani is a full-fledged package of art and culture, and certainly a must-watch movie by all means. If you haven’t watched it yet, consider this to be a reminder to book your tickets and witness this artistic production!
There’s something incredibly satisfying about watching realistic movies. Most of us might have seen or heard of the days when festivals were celebrated by putting up fairs or setting ‘akhadas’ and a common man would buy lottery tickets to win it and change his destiny.
All the memories would revive again when the rock star of Punjabi Industry Gippy Grewal and the charming beauty Neeru Bajwa will get together after 12 years in their upcoming film ‘Paani Ch Madhaani’.
Astonishingly, the makers of the film have brought back the retro era of the 1980s, with their periodic music and looks. The music includes the essence of the retro musical instruments banjo and accordions that are extinct today. The looks are an incredible change where the actors are unrecognizable; the hairdo is according to the hairstyles people did then. Not to mention, the director of the film ‘Daduji’ new to Punjabi Industry, with a strong sense of belief chose the best people to work with, and remarkably, is resulting as an eye catcher of the audience worldwide.
Naresh Kathooria, seems like, has written the script in context of the artists that are playing the characters effortlessly. Gurpreet Ghuggi, Harby Sangha and Karamjit Anmol are like a backbone to any punjabi film that includes them and when they are together in this film, we can imagine to what extent this movie can prosper. The movie also includes Iftikhar Thakur, the famed comedy artist from Pakistan.
Apart from all the fun and entertainment, setting an example, how Gulli in efforts to find his lost ticket, focuses on shortcuts and turns out to be more churning as ‘Paani Ch Madhaani’.
The film is a full package of comedy, drama, romance and emotions to not further churn the water, the film will hit the screens at your nearest theaters on 5th November 2021.

When we talk about the classic movies of the Punjabi film industry, Jihne Mera Dil Luteya (2011) and Mel Karade Rabba (2010) are two movies that definitely top the list.
Reckoned to be the superhit Punjabi romantic comedy drama movies of that era, Jihne Mera Dil Luteya and Mel Karade Rabba both had a fun and interesting storyline combined with a foot tapping music that was appreciated by Punjabis across the globe.
Fast forward to 2021, the famous duo of Gippy Grewal and Neeru Bajwa are all set to make a trailblazing comeback with not just one, but three unique movies in the next few months.

Paani Ch Madhaani is scheduled to release this Diwali.
Up next is Shava Ni Girdhari Lal, a Punjabi period comedy drama movie that has its plot set in the 1940s. Directed by Gippy Grewal from a screenplay co-written with Rana Ranbir, Shava Ni Girdhari Lal is produced by Gippy Grewal, Vashu Bhagnani and Ashu Munish Sahani under the banners of Humble Motion Pictures, Pooja Entertainment and Omjee Star Studios. The movie stars Gippy Grewal, Neeru Bajwa, and Himanshi Khurana in the lead roles. It is scheduled to release on 17th December 2021.
That’s not all! Gippy Grewal and Neeru Bajwa will also be seen sharing the screen in the Punjabi comedy drama movie, Phatte Dinde Chakk Punjabi. The movie is anticipated to have a bone-tickling storyline that revolves around the life of a Punjabi girl. Directed by Maneesh Bhatt and produced by Gippy Grewal, Ashu Munish Sahni, and Aniket Kawade under the banner of Humble Motion Pictures and Omjee Star Studios, Phatte Dinde Chakk Punjabi is slated to release on 11th February, 2022.
Gippy Grewal and Neeru Bajwa starrer ‘Paani Ch Madhaani’ is all set to take its fans through a retro experience on 5th November. Rhe movie is set in the era of the 1980s, when people enjoyed listening to singers like Chamkila, Kuldip Manak and other very renowned singers.
And since the movie is based on music, you will enjoy six different songs only on Humble Music, picturised on Gippy Grewal and Neeru Bajwa who themselves will be portrayed as singers in the film. It is a very big task and a huge responsibility for a film director and of course the music composer to make the film sync into the music and vice-versa.
The music has been directed by one of the popular and talented music composers, Jatinder Shah. Gippy Grewal and Shah Ji have been working together for at least fourteen years now, maybe which is the reason he had so much faith in Shah Ji and gave him this impeccable project. Shah Ji feels so blessed and fortunate to have the chance to do this project as he says,” we have grown up listening to folk music, so it helped us to create every inch of the music with the same style and pattern”.
As we see the trailer of the film and listen to the music, we can easily make out that the music is made with a lot of effort and hard work. The songs have been beautifully sung by our favourite singers Gippy Grewal, Afsaana Khan, Ranjit Bawa and Jasbir Jassi. It will be for the first time that we are going to have them all singing on the same album as a team and surely amuse the audience.
Shah Ji further adds,” The song that is going to be released today has a very difficult pattern of rhythms made after 40 years using classical musical instruments, whose names might have not even been heard by most of the people. As digital music changes at a fast pace nowadays, it is important to create this kind of film so that our legacy remains alive.”
The songs for the movie are written by our very own treasured writer Happy Raikoti, as we all know how he pens down his heart out, but this was a very difficult and yet a different task for him as he has never written songs for a period film. We have always been overjoyed by his depth of words and the kind of songs he writes but this time we will be surprised by his work.
