New Delhi. Imtiaz Ali’s previous film ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’ has received tremendous response from the audience. This film, released on Netflix, received a lot of applause from the audience as well as the critics. Imtiaz Ali is also being praised a lot for this film based on the life of Punjabi singer Amar Singh Chamkila. Recently, in an interview given to Zoom, director Imtiaz Ali revealed some special things related to the screening of the film and said that he was scared of the singer’s first wife during the screening of the film.
Imtiaz Ali said in his interview, ‘Chamkila’s entire family was present during the screening. His first wife was Gurmel Kaur. Amarjot and Chamkila’s son Jaiman Chamkila was there. Chamkila’s daughters were also there. During the screening, Amar Singh Chamkila’s first wife was sitting right next to me and I was thinking that there are some sensitive scenes in the film, so should I step back before she attacks me.
Regarding portraying Chamkila’s character on screen, Imtiaz Ali says, ‘I have not whitewashed Chamkila’s image. I have presented him on screen as he is. He had done many things in his life which you can judge, but I had left all those things as they are. Full credit for this goes to his family that they gave me the freedom to present things as they were.
Let us tell you, singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh has played the main character of Chamkila in the film ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’ and Parineeti Chopra has been seen in the role of his second wife in the film.
