  • Imtiaz Ali's new film 'Amar Singer Chamkila' is set for a Netflix release on 12 April 2024. The biopic stars Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra in lead roles. In this episode of Do I Like It, Prateek Lidhoo talks about the life and career of Amar Singh Chamkila, his wife and collaborator Amarjot, and how they were mysteriously assassinated on the 8 March 1988.
    Prateek draws parallels to artists like Sidhu Moose Wala, Tupac Shakur and AIB to explore how their art tells us about the fantasies of people who consume this "obscene" art. If you haven't heard Chamkila's music before, this video is for you!

    Chamkila was a Dalit “Chamar which is a Dalit cast in Punjab. I hope Imtiaz Sir touched upon this also. That day and today how cast play a role in the music industry.

      Punjabi music lovers don’t give any preference to casteism or religion of any singer , that’s where Punjabi culture is different then many other states of India.

      Hehe I won't lie and say I'm the biggest Chamkila fan. I had heard a few songs previously. But since last year (after the film's announcement) I've been playing his songs non stop.
      I sort of went into a rabbit hole of him life and story... He was sooo good!

    Chamkila was an amazing artist, great at singing, writing songs, performing, and making people laugh. His songs talked about many different kinds of people, both men and women. He could sing from the point of view of young folks to the elderly, showing he was truly talented. Comparing him to Sidhu Moosewala, who might be considered a C-grade imitation of Tupac Shakur, doesn't do justice to Chamkila's unique talents and contributions.

    • @KillerMirzaX
      @KillerMirzaX Před měsícem

      @@DanishAli-gw9ke Every Punjabi artist, including Sidhu Moose Wala, followed Chamkila. Many hit songs were inspired by Chamkila’s compositions and lyrics. For instance, artists like Honey Singh, Gippy Grewal, Diljit Dosanjh, Karan Aujla, and Sidhu Moose Wala have produced songs that reflect his influence. In short, Chamkila was the seed from which the tree of Punjabi music grew.

      Indeed, i don't know about chamkela (who i heard also wrote against khalistanis and was forced to back down after receiving death threats)
      but seedhu musawala on the other hand romanticised gun culture, gangster and also khalistanis just for the sake of it.
      They should have free speech no doubt but should certainly not be encouraged like this and whitewash his character like this guy is trying to do...
