Hit Movies Punjabi 2022 | 7
This is the most "filmy" film on the list. The action sequences in Vancouver are slick. The comedy—especially the scenes with the Punjabi-Canadian police chief—is gold. However, the film suffers from an identity crisis. Is it a rom-com? An action thriller? A social drama about drugs? It tries to be all three and doesn't fully succeed at any. The songs, particularly "Gutt Nu Phirde" , were chartbusters. Diljit’s charm carries the weak patches. If you are a fan, you will love it. If not, you might find the 150-minute runtime long.
The chemistry between Ammy and Sonam is electric. The first half is a breeze—fun, flirty, and filled with beautiful Punjab landscapes. The second half is a slow burn as the families clash. The dialogue is sharp: "Tusi shatranj diya rani ho, jeetna assi sikha dange" (You are a queen in chess, we’ll teach you how to win). The climax doesn’t rely on violence but on a clever speech, which is refreshing. The only flaw is the pacing—the middle 20 minutes drag slightly. A wholesome family hit.
It’s Diljit Dosanjh . Need we say more? The fan following alone guaranteed a hit. But beyond that, the film successfully rebooted a beloved franchise by shifting from romantic comedy to action-comedy. Neeru Bajwa looked stunning and matched Diljit’s energy beat for beat. 7 Hit Movies Punjabi 2022
Raw, rustic action. Punjabi audiences had been craving a massy, angry-young-man film, and Sher Punjab Di delivered. Guri, usually known for romantic roles, underwent a physical transformation—bulked up, intense eyes, and a heavy dialect.
Let’s dive into the long reviews of the 7 hits that defined 2022. Starring: Ammy Virk, Sargun Mehta, Nimrat Khaira Director: Amarjit Singh Saron This is the most "filmy" film on the list
A period action-drama set in the 1980s-90s. A righteous young man (Guri) from a powerful family fights against an evil, corrupt politician (Dheeraj Kumar) who is destroying farmers’ lives. Neeru Bajwa plays the love interest caught in the crossfire.
Harnaaz Sandhu’s debut. The Miss Universe title brought massive hype. But beyond that, the film is a laugh-a-minute rollercoaster. Gippy Grewal directing himself worked—he gave himself the best comedic lines. However, the film suffers from an identity crisis
This film is not trying to be deep. It is pure, masala entertainment. The cinematography is bright and colorful, perfect for the festive season. The supporting cast (Prince Kanwaljit Singh as the fake father) is hilarious. Harnaaz Sandhu is surprisingly good for a debut—she holds her own against Sargun Mehta. The negatives: the songs are forgettable except for the title track. The plot is so thin that if you think about it for two seconds, it falls apart. But for a Diwali release, it was exactly what the doctor ordered: no stress, just smiles.
