In an earlier interview with Cine Punjabi, Amar Singh Chamkila's son Jaiman opened up about the complex family dynamics. He shared that he is still in touch with his father's first wife, Gurmail and his stepsisters. He said, "I am in touch with Chamkila's first family. I have two sisters from his first wife, Amandeep and Kamaldeep. The older one is married and has two kids, and Kamal is getting married this year [2023]. When I go meet her [Gurmail], she greets me well but that's it. From the beginning, it's been this way. It is not her fault nor our (the children) fault.”
Jaiman, who grew up with his maternal grandparents, also spoke about his parents' tragic death and Gurmail Kaur's thoughts on the tragedy. He said, "Sometimes we speak and she would say that if your father was around, we wouldn't be in such a state. He worked really hard, people's evil eyes impacted him; he had too many enemies. I have my sisters as well, we try to share our pain as much as we can.”
For the unversed, Amar Singh Chamkila and Amarjot Kaur were shot dead by unidentified assailants in 1988 when they arrived to perform in Punjab's Mehsampur.
Amar Singh Chamkila premiered on April 12. The film also stars Parineeti Chopra.
