Filmmaker Vikas Bahl’s yet-to-be-titled film is set in Britain in the early 1990s. The film is expected to unfold against the rise of the UK Punjabi music movement. It was a turbulent and exhilarating time when a generation growing up between cultures began turning up the volume in garages, backrooms, pirate radio stations, and underground gigs.
Moreover, it brings together Indian and international actors, musicians, and performers to recreate a moment when an entire generation began to discover that perhaps belonging wasn’t something they needed to ask permission for. It was a time when Punjabi dhol collided with basslines and when young brown artists with their unique sound fought their way to music charts, making their whole community visible.
All in all, the untitled film, set against such a cultural explosion, tells the saga of music, identity, family, friendship, and belonging. More details about the film, such as the official title and release date, are still under wraps.
