The movie 'Amar Singh Chamkila,' directed by Imtiaz Ali and featuring Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra, is getting praised by critics. The cast and crew appeared on 'The Great Indian Kapil Show' to promote the biopic. During the show, Imtiaz shared a story with Kapil Sharma about filming 'Jab We Met' in Punjab. He mentioned assigning a local person to oversee the sets and ensure they respected Punjabi cultural norms.
During an episode of Kapil Sharma's show, Diljit Dosanjh admitted that despite being Punjabi, he was surprised by how much he learned about Chamkila from Imtiaz's research. When Kapil asked Imtiaz why he chose to make a movie about Amar Singh Chamkila, Imtiaz responded, “I have shot in Punjab several times, and in Punjab, during the evening people get into a mood. During the Jab We Met shoot, one man started abusing and saying cuss words, and people were trying to throw him out, but I went and spoke to him. So he said that I was doing something very wrong in showing Dara Singhji’s family. He objected to the colour of the turban that was being shown.”
