Vijay Varma Thanks Imtiaz Ali For The ‘Gift’ That Is Chamkila: ‘It Refuses To Leave Me’
Taking to his Instagram stories, Vijay Varma mentioned that he can't get over the film. He praised Parineeti Chopra also for her stellar performance

Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra starrer Amar Singh Chamkila has been getting an overwhelming response from the fans. The film, which was released on April 12 on Netflix, is currently trending. Vijay Varma recently took to his social handle and praised the film. He thanked Imtiaz Ali for this gift and also showered love on Parineeti Chopra.

Taking to his Instagram stories, Vijay Varma wrote, “It’s been 5 days since I watched chamkila and it refuses to leave me. It is one of the most potent, poignant and extraordinary film I have seen and I want to thank @imtiazaliofficial sir giving us this gift @parineetichopra was delightful as she tapped onto such simplicity and genuineness. And @diljitdosanjh bhai.. mere shabd kam pad jayenge aapki taarif ke liye. Dil jit liya BRAVO!”

Take a look here:

Recently, Amar Singh Chamkila’s first wife, Gurmail, has made some massive allegations against Amarjot’s family. In one of her recent interviews, she opened up about the disputes she had with Amarjot’s family after Chamkila’s death and accused them of taking away everything. She claimed that Amarjot’s family did not leave even a penny and argued that she had no energy to fight them back then.

Talking about the hardships she faced after Chamkila’s death, Gurmail told Love Punjab, “I have witnessed a lot of hardships after he passed away. He was the light of our lives, but also the sole breadwinner. The children were very young, and I was helpless. We didn’t see a penny of his earnings, because the court cases started after he died. They went on for 15 years, but we eventually won. The judge took witness statements from people in our village. They testified that I was his wife.”

Amar Singh Chamkila and his wife Amarjot were shot dead in 1988. In Imtiaz Ali’s film, Diljit Dosanjh played the role of Punjabi singer whereas Parineeti Chopra essayed the role of his wife. The film is currently streaming on Netflix and is getting immense appreciation from fans.

News18 Showsha’s review of the film read, “Imtiaz renders a unique treatment to Amar Singh Chamkila. In a rarity, his protagonists Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra record live songs while shooting. And the outcome is mesmerising to say the least. The duo croons Chamkila and Amarjot’s original compositions and these musical pieces hold the film up even when the screenplay starts falling flat. The makers provide real-time translations of the songs onscreen and though that helps the audience understand why Chamkila was also considered a threat to society, it gets monotonous after a point of time. Soon, you’ll find yourself confused – if you should focus on the scenes or the words onscreen.”
