31-05-2023(Press Ki Taquat)- The music of Elvis Presley, who is counted among the most popular music icons in the world, was a symbol of a great change. Known as the God of the rock and roll music genre, Presley was known for a rebellious attitude in his songs and performances, which was completely different from mainstream American culture. In the 1980s, a singer in Punjab, India was doing something similar.
His songs had a very different style apart from the praise of traditional Punjabi pride and cultural heritage. Songs that were sometimes called obscene. Parineeti Chopra is playing the role of Amarjot in the movie ‘Chamkila’.
A line from the announcement video of Imtiaz Ali’s film ‘Chamkila’ states that Amar Singh Chamkila was the highest record selling singer in Punjabi music. Reports say that there was a time when Chamkila did 366 stage shows in 365 days. Born on 21 July 1960 in a small village in Punjab, this singer had achieved the position in Punjabi music in a very short time, which big artists long to achieve.
