My dad was a Punjabi from Amritsar, and my mom is a Punjabi from Kashmir. My dad was a soldier in the Indian Army.
We are trying our best to spread the culture of Punjabi music all over the world. With the traditional rigid Punjabi music, people always had a myth that the music is very conventional, but nowadays, we are really thrilled to see how people are loving the tunes and beats of Punjabi music.
In 'Godha,' I was a Punjabi girl and had Hindi, English and Punjabi dialogues.
I feel Urdu and Punjabi are quite similar and therefore, I mostly make my songs in Punjabi.
It's the Punjabi film industry that sustained me and my family for eight years. It is because of my work in Punjabi films that I was able to survive.
Also, the times have changed, the Punjabi cinema is growing. Movies and songs are being made in such a manner that even a non-Punjabi can relate to them.
Since I grew up in Jammu, all my school and college friends are from there and the area's language, Dogri, is slightly similar to Punjabi, so I understand a bit of Punjabi.
I'm doing 'Maula Jutt 2,' which is a Punjabi film. For me, it's a new experience because I have never spoken Punjabi, and I hope everyone is going to love it.
People in Mumbai are not really into Punjabi music, whereas those in Delhi and Gurgaon love Punjabi numbers and are totally into the peppy music.
I am glad to see the people grooving to and loving the Punjabi tunes. I also personally feel that Punjabi songs have a different vibe and energy, which helps in lifting one's mood completely.
Who says I don't know how to speak in English? So what if it has a Punjabi touch?
Being a Punjabi, it is very hard to say this, but Punjabi food is very overrated.
I always wanted to play a Punjabi girl because I always found them very colourful, in a way. There's always a spark to all the Punjabi girls I've seen onscreen.
The Punjabi food has its own taste. It's not just about one food item but the Punjabi food is itself world-renowned.
Punjabi film industry is not yet ready to give change to new actors, but if Punjabi singers, who already have a fan following, enter the industry, it will be a great help to uplift the industry.
