Filmmaker Imtiaz Ali is currently gearing up for the release of his upcoming film 바카라Amar Singh Chamkila바카라. It stars Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra and in the lead roles. Diljit plays the late Punjabi singer Amar Singh Chamkila, while Parineeti plays the role of his partner, Amarjot Kaur, who was the female vocalist of Chamkila바카라s band. In an interview, Imtiaz revealed that initially he was unsure of casting Diljit in the film.
Imtiaz Ali told Pinkvilla, 바카라I also feel when I watch them together or separately that I couldn바카라t have imagined or there could바카라ve been nobody who could바카라ve played Chamkila or Amarjot except for Diljit and Parineeti. However, I wasn바카라t sure whether it바카라s gonna work out with Diljit for some reason. I thought he might not be able to do it, etc. So I didn바카라t approach him in the beginning, but it바카라s a little later that I did, the moment I spoke to him, it was just like a different chapter, and now it바카라s a sure shot thing, and now I really can바카라t imagine anybody else doing it''.
While talking about the appreciation Diljit has been getting for his look of Chamkila, the 'Jab We Met' director said, 바카라In a way, he has been preparing for Chamkila ever since he was born because he was born in those parts. Diljit is also from Malwa, from Punjab from a smaller place like he knows that language; he knows what it is to be an artist in Punjab and rise he knows about Chamkila much before I got to know. He knew everything. Like he spoke to me, the first thing he said was that there are many people in this world who think they are the biggest fan of Chamkila, and I바카라m also one of them.바카라
