The makers of Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra-starrer biopic Amar Singh Chamkila on Monday announced that the Imtiaz Ali directorial will release on April 12. It will be a digital-only release and will be on streaming giant Netflix. The film presents the untold true story of Punjab’s original rockstar, the biggest record selling artist of his time, Amar Singh Chamkila, often referred to as the ‘Elvis Presley of Punjab’.
Amar Singh Chamkila’s music was heavily influenced by Punjabi rural life, and his lyrics revolved around extramarital affairs, ageing, drinking, drug use and the hot-tempered nature of Punjabi men. The makers shared a motion poster on social media announcing the date of the film.
In the snippet, Diljit, who plays the lead character, says, “One thing I know is what people want to hear, what they enjoy. I can do that.”
The streaming giant wrote in the caption “An atmosphere was created when he used to tease Saaz, such was Chamkila’s style. @imtiazaliofficial’s #AmarSinghChamkila is coming on 12th April, only on Netflix.”
