Angrej

This is my first ever review on IMDb....I was literally forced into registering into an IMDb account as I HAD to write a short recommendation for this movie.

In short this movie is SIMPLY OUTSTANDING and probably ONE OF THE BEST (if not the best) Punjabi movie showing true Punjabi culture!

MUST WATCH with kids esp if you are a Punjabi, to let them know of the background that we come from. Hats off to the producers and the directors for bringing out this masterpiece. Acting is brilliant and songs are awesome. I normally skip songs in most of my movies as I find them useless and meaningless most of the time...But for this movie, I watched the movie at least 4 times just to enjoy the music and songs!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!

I am from Punjab Pakistan and have close observation of Punjabi culture. I heard about this movie from a friend and he insisted me to watch this movie. I didn't believe that such a masterpiece can be presented in a very light and original way.

I started watching this movie and it grabbed my whole attention and didn't let me divert my attention for single minute till the end of this movie. Our Sikh brothers have presented a very true culture of Punjab and it has not only revealed but also revived our Punjabi culture. I thank to the characters and director of this movie for providing such a master piece.

Lot of Love from Pakistani guys who are looking forward to see more such great movies like this. Wish you all the best!!

Technically speaking, "Angrej" as a movie is one fine piece of art with a sound story and classic acting. Dialogues are sensibly drawn and screenplay is just dandyish.

however, the most astounding aspect of this film is that it is a very well researched movie on the vintage Punjabi culture which I must say has gone obsolete nowadays. For that, I would like to thank and congratulate the whole team of "Angrej", particularly, the writer and the director who I believe have contributed a great deal to the preservation of the Punjabi culture.

This movie is a gift for those who grew up listening to the legends of "Des" full of "Lok Geet" and the one who delves into Punjabi literature.

I'm a big movie goer but not so active on reviewing them. but this Punjabi flick blown me away... I'll must say this is one of the best Punjabi movies I've ever seen. It won't be wrong if I mention that everything in the movie is so well placed, Script, Dialogues, Background-score, Songs everything is just perfect. Punjab's Culture have always been so rich and this movie just projected it in its true sense and nature. Comedy, Sweet innocent romance, Lovely songs inclusive of traditional Punjabi folk music, in short, a well packaged content almost for all ages. and in last, Actors! I must say, from now, I'm a big fan. A MUST WATCH!

After watching the initial trailer, I was looking forward to this movie. Was little bit fearful that the team might add typical masala or overdo things to spoil the fun but on the contrary no such thing happened and it turned out to be more than what I had expected.

Movie is set in an era before independence and captures the life of normal peoples as it used to be. you could straight away relate to those little nuances and etiquette's of the cast and fall in love with them. It beautifully captures the locale of that time with simple life, the way people talk and dress up. Cinematography was awesome.

Story was simple and did not had any unusual turns but still it keeps you engaged due to the way it is narrated. There are funny moments which doesn't seem forced but arise due to the general talks or behavior of characters. Songs are not forced, but seems like part of story and helps it move forward.

Acting wise everyone did there job sincerely, no over the top acts. Although everyone was good but Ammy Virk and Sargun Mehta stands out with there performance.

I have rated it 10, couldn't have wished more then what it delivered. Go and watch this delightful journey into the life of early 30's and 40's from the past century. This one is not to be missed.
