Amar Singh Chamkila
Manage episode 412156321 series 3255221
Is Amar Singh Chamkila a long-awaited return to form for director Imtiaz Ali, or is it another let-down from the once-promising filmmaker?
We discuss the film’s inventive approach to the music biopic genre, if not narratively then at least formally. We also talk about Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra’s central performances as the slain husband-wife folk singer duo and address the ‘Hindi gaze’ that Ali brings to this inherently Punjabi tale.
Along the way, we also discuss the nature of high and low art and the film’s many defences of Chamkila’s controversial music.
