Imtiaz Ali and Diljit Dosanjh last collaborated on the film 'Amar Singh Chamkila'. The film follows the story of Punjab's iconic folk singer Amar Singh Chamkila, often called the "Elvis of Punjab."

Chamkila rose to fame in the 1980s for his bold songs and energetic performances, but his life was tragically cut short in 1988 when he and his wife, Amarjot Kaur, were killed.

Released on Netflix in April 2024, Amar Singh Chamkila also starred Parineeti Chopra and was written by Imtiaz Ali and Sajid Ali.

A.R. Rahman's music and Irshad Kamil's lyrics? That's the dream team right there. The cast looks interesting too, mixing veterans like Naseeruddin Shah with fresh faces. Hope it's a proper return to form for Imtiaz Ali after a few misses.

June 12, 2026? That's over two years away! The wait is going to be torture. They announced it so early, building hype I guess. But the team is solid, so hopefully it will be worth it.

Interesting to see Vedang Raina getting such a big project so soon after his debut. And Sharvari is a great choice. Imtiaz has a knack for bringing out the best in his actors. Fingers crossed for a good story and not just style.

"A charming story of love and longing" – sounds like classic Imtiaz Ali territory. Hope it's more *Jab We Met* and less of his recent experimental phase. We need that heartfelt, relatable romance back on screen. Diljit is a fantastic actor, so excited to see him in a lead romantic role.

With all due respect to the talent involved, I hope the film has a strong script. Sometimes Imtiaz's films feel beautiful but lack narrative depth. *Chamkila* worked because of the real-life story. An original "love and longing" plot needs to be equally compelling. Wishing the team the best though!
