Story of the film (Film Chamkila story)

Amar Singh Chamkila, releasing on Netflix in April 2024, is based on the life of Punjabi folk singer Amar Singh Chamkila . Chamkila is known as Punjab's first "rock star." His singing connected directly with the public, and he wrote songs openly addressing social issues. His popularity was so great that his songs resonated in villages. However, in 1988, he and his wife, Amarjot, were murdered, abruptly ending both his life and career.
