Imtiaz Ali reveals Elvis of Punjab?



Presently, filmmaker Imtiaz Ali is busy in his next Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan starrer Aaj Kal. But, he has already started work on his next film which is based on the story of Punjabi folk singer, late Amar Singh Chamkila. Termed as the Elvis of Punjab, Amar Singh Chamkila was recognised for his tracks that addressed extra-marital relationships, drug abuse and the patriarchal mindset of the Punjabi men. Surrounded by controversies, the singer shot to fame and was subjected to criticism at the same time.

As per latest media report, Imtiaz Ali has acquired the filming rights and permission from the singer's family to recreate his story on the silver screen. While the movie is still in its scripting stage, the makers are considering Ayushmann Khurrana and Kartik Aaryan for the role. Both the actors seem to be at their peak and it is difficult to decide who can play the role better.

Director Imtiaz Ali is believed to start working on the project in full swing after the release of Kartik and Sara romantic flick Aaj Kal on Valentine's Day 2020. Nothing else is disclosed about the film as of now.
