Shaad Ali’s this film is a true success. His dedication, determination, and unbridled passion for sports are his victory, which the story depicts.

He made headlines for his miraculous comeback after facing a near-death experience. The director seems very clear about telling the story of an ordinary man who achieves extraordinary feats.

Diljit Dosanj, in the lead role, nailed the character. He has already won million hearts and is the backbone of Punjabi films. Taapsee Pannu is impressive in her significant role as one of the best film stars.

Angad Bedi is endearing as the protective and caring elder brother, and so is Satish Kaushik in the role of Sandeep’s father.

Among others is Vijay Raaz as Sandeep’s quirky coach. He did justice to the character as he showed up his aggression and egoistic nature and had many laughs and whistles.

6. Sardar Ji 

Jaggi is tasked with driving away from a ghost who haunts a mansion in London. We couldn’t ask for more humor when we know that he falls in love with a ghost—a typical yet innovative idea to create humor amongst the audience.

If you love watching horror yet comedy Punjabi movies, you will end up adding SARDAR JI in your favorites. Starring: Diljit Dosanjh, Neeru Bajwa, and Mandy Takhar taking up the lead roles.

7. Needhi Singh 

It has a storyline, which raises a social issue. A must for the whole family. As it is not a regular Punjabi movie, it is much more than a family drama and has a strong message for women, not to succumb to pressure of any kind.

Its worldwide available and appeals especially to India and Asian countries. The actress has done justice to her role, though there is no main male actor in the movie. Needhi Singh has taken this movie to its best version.

After a long time, one has come across a good Punjabi movie. The real incident took place in Bhago Majra village in Mohali, which happened circa 2011 — like gender violence that his friend’s sister witnessed — the dramatized treatment is entirely his own.

8. Motor Mitraan Di 

Motor Mitraan Di is a story of three brothers who own a garage or bus. This story highlights a godman who misleads people, but people always recognize him as a messiah as his misdeeds are still unseen.

Near their village is a dera of Baba (Yograj Singh), whom several people visit for worship. The three brothers strike a deal with the person in charge of the data to transport the passengers to see the baba.

The dera head who killed a girl tried to escape the accusation and carried her body to the canal but failed to do so.  How the three brothers get to know about the murder and expose the fake baba forms the rest of the story.

9. Mahi NRI 

The flick titled ‘Mahi NRI‘ has a skillful direction and a variety of music. Lead, Harrdy Sandhu, the character was a village-based rapper cum singer called Sherry Singh whose ustaadji is GHUMAN SAHB, Reet’s dad.

Both even perform at local events besides the fact that Ghuman Saab is a banker. A lot can be said and discussed, but the good part is that this movie had certain dialogues which made a lot of sense and touched everyone’s heart! 

Hardy Sandhu, debutante Poppy Jabbal and Rameet Kaur, Gurpreet Ghuggi, Navneet Nishan, and BN Sharma are lead roles. Navneet Nishan plays Reet’s mother and a whole with Indian attributes through which the story takes many twists and turns.

10. Asees

This genre is less explored by writers/directors in the Punjabi movies industry and is underrated only because this genre is less experienced. But it has an exceptionally emotional movie indeed.

Rana Ranbir is in total control of the character portrayed by him. It’s a story of a mother-son duo and the tests they face in their relationship.

It shows the various aspects of human life and how relationship changes with time. Pardeep Saran got some serious acting skills.

Few had always loved Rana Ranbir’s work, and he certainly didn’t disappoint them in ASEES. Kudos to the team for presenting us with such a masterpiece.
