ISLAMABAD, May 30 (Online): Diljit Dosanjh plays highest record selling artist of Punjab Amar Singh Chamkila in the Netflix film Chamkila. His look came as a surprise to his fans.<\/p>\n
The first look of Diljit Dosanjh from his upcoming film, Chamkila is out and left his fans surprised. The singer-actor is seen without his turban in the short teaser which was released by Netflix Tuesday morning. He seems to be wearing a wig but the actor has not confirmed the same. He plays Punjab’s highest record-selling artist Amar Singh Chamkila in the Imtiaz Ali film. Parineeti Chopra will be seen as his partner Amarjot Kaur in the movie.<\/p>\n
Netflix shared the teaser with the caption: \u201cJo naam saalon se aapke dil aur dimaag pe chaaya hai woh ab aapke saamne aaya hai (the name which ruled your hearts and minds is all set to come in front of you). Watch the untold story of Punjab\u2019s highest record-selling artist, Amar Singh #Chamkila, coming soon only on Netflix!\u201d<\/p>\n
Reactions to the language of the film
\nPeople from the Punjabi music industry including Prabh Bains and Desi Crew hailed the teaser but many also objected to use of Hindi instead of Punjabi in the film. A comment read: \u201cPunjab ch bani Punjabi artist di movie, Hindi ch ajeeb lg rahi a kaafi. Kantara wangu Hindi dub honi chaidi c. Original language Punjabi chaidi. Baki movie aye te pata lagu (A movie on a Punjabi artist should be made in Punjabi, it’s looking weird in Hindi. It should be dubbed in Hindi like Kantara but the original language should be Punjabi. We will find out only when the film releases).\u201d Another commented, \u201cJust hoping they didn’t ruin the Chamkila’s song by dubbing in Hindi.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fans object to Diljit’s look
\nSome of Diljit’s fans however, shared their disappointment on seeing the actor without the turban. A fan wrote, \u201cDil tutt gya paaji pagg bina kithe gall bann ni (this broke my heart, this won’t work without the turban).\u201d <\/p>\n
Another wrote, \u201cThis is not good haircut nhi krna chahida si (you shouldn’t have done it).\u201d One more said, \u201cDiljit nu dekh kujh adhoora adhoora kio lgg reha (why is looking incomplete)?\u201d Speaking in his defense, a fan also wrote, \u201cohdi v agla di marji aa cahye oH hair cut karvaye ya na krvaye ohda kaam aa oh (it is his wish that he wants to cut his hair or now, this is his job).\u201d<\/p>\n
Set in Punjab, the film stars Diljit and Parineeti as real-life singer couple Amar Singh Chamkila and Amarjot Kaur, who were killed, along with two members of their band in 1988 in an assassination which remains unsolved.<\/p>\n
Diljit, Parineeti on shoot wrap
\nThe film shoot was completed in March this year. Announcing the same, Parineeti had written on her Instagram Stories, \u201cImtiaz Sir, Diljit, Team Chamkila\u2026My life remains forever changed\u2026the most heavenly crew and experience. Peace, happiness, meditation, Punjab\u2026Will never, ever forget this.\u201d<\/p>\n
