AR Rahman talks about creating soundtrack of Diljit Dosanjh – Parineeti Chopra starrer Amar Singh Chamkila: “It's defining what Punjab is at that particular period”

Following the release of Amar Singh Chamkila starring Diljit Dosanjh, and Parineeti Chopra and helmed by Imtiaz Ali, the film has become the talk of the town. The reactions from critics and audiences have been positive. The film’s music is by maestro AR Rahman whereas the lyrics are by Irshad Kamil. In a newly released video, Rahman talks about creating music for the film.

Imtiaz Ali, at the beginning of the video, says, “The thrill of the film is the music of the film.”

Rahman adds, “Generally, when two musicians come together, it's not just the music. There's also romance you know. This is one of the songs – ‘Ishq Mitaye’. The way it talks about is how love takes and give. When I recorded I said why it can’t be a very international kind of song because it talks about a great philosophy but at the same time it's also defining what Punjab is at that particular period.”
