Amar Singh Chamkila Director Imtiaz Ali Is Bollywood’s Magician Churning Out Great Stories. (Photo Credit – IMDb/Instagram)

Imtiaz Ali is back to doing what he does best. Weaving magic on the silver screen. The director started his career in 2005 with a film that was produced by Dharmendra and launched Abhay Deol in the film industry. He is back with his 9th directorial, Amar Singh Chamkila, starring Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra.

Imtiaz is considered one of those magical stars who has never shied away from creating masterpieces. His films might not have been box-office marvels, but all of them have a special place in the audience’s hearts except for two.

The only exceptions in Imtiaz Ali‘s career have been Jab Harry Met Sejal, starring Anushka Sharma and Shah Rukh Khan, and the other being a second attempt at Love Aaj Kal, starring Sara Ali Khan and Kartik Aaryan.

Amar Singh Chamkila (Netflix)

Starring Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra

Director: Imtiaz Ali

“Hum chetaawani nahin denge, marenge,” a Sikh committee warns Amar Singh Chamkila, who is too far gone into wink-wink-nudge-nudge gaane route to care.

When threatened Chamkila, as played by Diljit Dosanjh, is like, whatever…

Was Chamkila a brave musician who wouldn’t be intimidated by moral policing and creative fascism? Director Imtiaz Ali, who had lately been churning out balderdash like, cringe, When Harry Met Sejal and, double cringe, Love Aaj Kal (Kartik Aaryan’s own Razia Sultan) , is back in form.

And in Punjab where he loves to shoot from his hips.

Amar Singh Chamkila is shot like a docu-dream. The cinematographer Sylvester Fonseca keeps the visuals raw, real and rugged while editor Aarti Bajaj knows exactly where to cut before the raunchy singing hits the low notes.

Dosanjh, a singer and an actor of substantial skills,...

Mumbai, April 2 (Ians) Auteur Imtiaz Ali is one of the rare filmmakers who strikes a perfect balance between philosophy and entertainment in his stories.

While his earlier works like ‘Socha Na Tha’ and ‘Jab We Met’ were more on the entertaining side, films like ‘Love Aaj Kal’ (2009), ‘Rockstar’ and ‘Tamasha’ have aged like a fine wine and have cultivated a new fan base which craves for deeper meaning to a story as much as the entertainment.

The filmmaker is now gearing up for his ninth film, the biopic based on the highest selling Punjabi musician of all times, ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’.

“There are a lot of ‘9’ happening,” Imtiaz told Ians as he seems in a quirky mood.

“Nine is my favourite number, A.R. Rahman (his music composer) also loves nine, he has made ’99 Songs’ and ‘Chamkila’ is my ninth film”.

‘Amar Singh Chamkila’, which is set to release on April...

Rating – 10 out of 5 stars! Some Albums outperform!

The release of Amar Singh Chamkila is still a few days away, but the jukebox of the film is out, and this is one film where Bollywood outperformed after a very long time. Recently, I was putting all my hopes for a good Bollywood music album from Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Heeramandi, totally forgetting about the Chamkila biopic. But finally, Ar Rahman, Imtiaz Ali, and Irshad Kamil’s magical trio arrived unannounced, taking my breath away. And this album is the only soul music you need right now.

If you talk about a brilliantly balanced album from a commercial film, you would struggle when you encountered it last. Last year, Animal had a good album, undoubtedly, but it never stayed with you. Similarly, Rocky Aur Rani Ki...

This Friday will witness the release of T-Series? and Colour Yellow Productions Shubh Mangal Zyada Savdhaan. The Ayushmaan Khurrana starrer is expected to be the front runner and all set to embark on a healthy start and post that pick up as the weekend progresses.

The week will also feature Dharma Productions? Bhoot : Part I -The Haunted Ship, and given the decent promotions and fans of the horror genre, it should appeal to it?s core audience, and in a way will also be a true test of Vicky Kaushal?s box-office prowess.

What must also be kept in mind is that the Mahashivratri holiday on Friday in many states of India will boost the collections further.

Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khans onscreen chemistry in "Love Aaj Kal" has failed to create sparks at the box office.

Imtiaz Ali's fuilm managed a mere Rs 28.51-crore haul at the domestic market.

"'Love AajKal' is rejected... Dips on Day 2, falls flat on Day 3... Advantage #ValentinesDay (Day 1), else *3-day total* would be lower... Tough road ahead (weekdays)... Friday Rs 12.40 crore, Saturday Rs 8.01 crore, Sunday Rs 8.10 crore. Total: Rs 28.51 crore. #India business," posted trade expert Taran Adarsh.

Trade Analyst Komal Nahta also tweeted: "As against 'Love Aaj Kal' first day of Rs. 12 crore, the second day witnesses a drop in collections rather than a jump. Will the second day close at Rs. 8 crore or 7 crore or 6.5 crore? Probably Rs. 6.5 crore! That would be a big drop!"

"Love Aaj Kal" is Ali's remake of his own hit of 2009 of the same name that had starred Sara's father Saif Ali Khan with Deepika Padukone.

The indie distributor Neon is becoming the cool, popular kid in Hollywood and on the box office playground since they dominated the Oscars with the multiple Parasite wins. This weekend, the distributor, founded by Tim League and Tom Quinn, saw the return of Portrait of a Lady on Fire in theaters, while Parasite took a victory lap after winning four Oscars, upping its theater count to 2001 for the President’s Day holiday weekend.

Portrait of a Lady on Fire was previously released in New York in Los Angeles at the end of last year for a one-week awards season qualifying run. Céline Sciamma’s French period romantic drama starring Noémie Merlant and Adèle Haenel opened on 22 screens across six markets, with an estimated $440,907. It is on track for an estimated 4-day weekend cume of $633,310.

This is a strong start for the pic, which had an estimated gross of $67K in its exclusive one-week run,...

Love Aaj Kal

Starring Kartik Aryan, Sara Ali Khan, Arushi Sharma

Written & Directed by Imtiaz Ali

The post-intermission section of Imtiaz Ali’s confounding “love” story opens with what looks a video of a cheesy rapper exhorting the persuasions of that bewildering emotion called love, the same one that Kartik Aaryan in a semi-sepia flashback is heard telling his friends feels like someone strangling him in his sleep.

That’s how we often feel while watching Imtiaz Ali’s antidotal love story. Consciously or otherwise Ali denudes the feeling of love of all romance, makes it look like a train hurtling torrentially into the land of trauma . So fasten you seatbelts, for a ride into the choppy waters of a love relationship, with Kartik Aryan playing the cross-generation double loverboy with all the earnestness of Charlie Brown sneaking midnight treats for Snoopy.

Honestly, there is no way of telling the two Kartiks apart.

It is has been established over and over again that Pritam and Imtiaz Ali spell success where music is concerned and their newest collaboration Love Aaj Kal is no different. With super-hit tracks like ‘Shayad’, ‘Haan Main Galat’, ‘Mehrama’ and ‘Rahogi Meri’ the music is everyone’s favorite including the lead cast.

Kartik Aaryan expresses his love for Pritam’s music and says, “He is a best in the business and he is someone whose music has always been my personal favourite and the favourite song from the film would be Mehrama. The early Love Aajkal was the one which had great music, the whole album was such a huge success and he did it again with this Love Aajkal and couldn’t have asked for better songs….I think the song from our love story, from our Love Aajkal, I think they play an important role in our movie...

Love Aaj Kal movie review is here. Directed by Imtiaz Ali and starring Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan. The movie releases today ? February 14, 2020. Does this Imitiaz Ali?s rehash of his extremely lovable 2009 love story starring Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone rekindles your love for your valentine on this valentine day?. Let?s find out in the movie review of Love Aaj Kal.

Immediate reaction when the end credits roll

Oh.. so it got over. But from when did I start developing a feeling for Veer and Zoe in the last two hours and twenty one minutes of Love Aaj Kal ?. Dear Imtiaz Ali please start thinking of helming an action comedy now. You seriously need a change and a detox/ escape from the love cycle you have got yourself trapped in.

The Story of Love Aaj Kal

The structure is the same. Veer (Kartik) and Zoe (Sara) meet at a nightclub.

The soundtrack of Imtiaz Ali’s upcoming romance Love Aaj Kal has had everyone sit up and take note. It reunites Ali with composer Pritam and lyricist Irshad Kamil in celebrating the different facets of being in love. From Shayad, that celebrates the sweet innocence of first love, to the party track this Valentine Season – Haan Main Galat, there’s something in the album for everyone.

The latest song, Mehrama, sung by Darshan Raval & Antara Mitra, is a soulful melody that everyone can relate to at some level in their minds and hearts. It is about feeling lonely in a crowd. It is more relevant than ever in today’s world where everyone is in constant communication with others over different media and devices yet there’s an inexplicable loneliness that one feels inside. In its simplicity the song finds a way to tug at the heart and tap into...
