Amar Singh Chamkila Trailer OUT NOW
Amar Singh Chamkila trailer featuring Dosanjh and Chopra has been released by the official channels of streaming giant Netflix. The trailer promises to bring to the audience the bildungsroman of Amar Singh Sangila, and his journey of evolving as the ‘highest record-selling artist of Punjab’ Amar Singh Chamkila.
The trailer opens with a celebrated Chamkila on stage among a cheering crowd. He seems proud of his art, and the legacy of songs he has built for himself and his fans. The trailer delves into the origin story of Chamkila as a sock knitter in a factory striving to follow the tunes of his heart. Titled the ‘Elvis Presley of Punjab’ Chamkila’s fame was attributed to the ‘vulgar’ songs he wrote and sang with enthusiasm on stage.
Diljit radiates the shine in his eyes as a struggling artist with unbound self-belief and an eye to observe the wants of his audience. Parineeti Chopra as coy Amarjot Singh joins him on stage as his partner in music and in life. The vitalizing music of the movie, and vibrant visuals of the film, accompanied by the threads of Chamkila’s life milestones sets the trailer in the heart of a colorful Punjab reveling in the ‘vulgar’ songs of Chamkila.
The popularity of his song triggers the ‘pseudo moralist’ of society standing to safeguard society from his ostentatious lyrics.
In the trailer, the rise and fall of Chamkila is quite ironic due to his gaudy and infamous words threaded into the score of music to satiate the want of an audience.
Amar Singh Chamkila Makers
The musical movie is directed by Imtiaz Ali with Mohit Choudhary, Select Media Holdings LLP, Saregama, and Window Seat Films backing the production. The vivacious music of the movie is owed to AR Rehman.
Chamkila’s voyage from a ‘nobody’ to the ‘highest record-selling artists of Punjab’ was marked by notoriety, cynicism, and criticism, reasons attributed to his tragic fate as well. The trailer looks promising presenting the perspective of the man himself amid the many legends that float around about him.
