Amar Singh Chamkila is a Netflix movie directed by Imtiaz Ali that follows the journey of not just Punjab but probably India’s first pop stars, Amar Singh Chamkila and his wife Amarjyot Kaur. Their songs described popular pop culture, social commentaries, and catchy music- different from the folk music that was produced at that time. They became pop stars of the 80s and held concerts throughout Punjab. However, many found their lyrics obscene and had a wrong influence on the general masses. Their persistence resulted in their murders that happened in 1988 when they were on their way to sing in another live concert. Here are some of the best Amar Singh Chamkila dialogues that are winning everyone’s hearts.
