Imtiaz Ali’s surprising revelation about casting Diljit Dosanjh in the upcoming film “Amar Singh Chamkila” has sparked curiosity among fans.
In a recent interview, renowned filmmaker Imtiaz Ali shared insights into the casting process of his upcoming film “Amar Singh Chamkila,” set to release on Netflix on April 12. Ali candidly admitted to initial uncertainties about casting Diljit Dosanjh as the lead alongside Parineeti Chopra, portraying the roles of the iconic Punjabi singer Amar Singh Chamkila and his wife Amarjot.
Despite his reservations, Ali expressed a change of heart after meeting Dosanjh, emphasizing that the actor’s portrayal exceeded his expectations. The film, based on the tragic real-life story of the legendary singer and his wife, delves into their lives and the untimely demise that shook the music industry.

With Dosanjh’s casting now a certainty, fans eagerly anticipate the release of “Amar Singh Chamkila,” a collaboration between Ali and producers Mohit Choudhary, Select Media Holdings LLP, Saregama, and Window Seat Films. This revelation by Imtiaz Ali has set the stage for a captivating cinematic experience that promises to resonate with audiences.
