Director Imtiaz Ali also shared the video on his Instagram Stories and said, "This was not used in the film :)." Parineeti Chopra reposted the video and wrote, "My favorite akhada. Completely impromptu. Unseen in Chamkila."

Helmed by Imtiaz Ali, Amar Singh Chamkila revolves around the untold true story of Punjab's original rockstar of the masses, who emerged from the shadows of poverty and rose to the heights of popularity in the eighties due to the sheer power of his music. This angered many along the way, leading to the couple's assassination. Chamkila was killed when he was only 27.

Diljit Dosanjh portrayed Chamkila, the top-selling artist of his era. Parineeti Chopra essayed the role of Amar Singh Chamkila's wife, Amarjot Kaur. The film was released on Netlix on April 12 last year. (ANI)
