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.

I am writing this review but literally i have no words to explain the beauty and depth of this picture. Only people from Punjab(both India and Pakistan) or who knows PUNJABI can understand the importance and beauty of this picture. Each and every detail is being taken care of.
I belong to a Punjabi family and i want to share that my family has watched this movie for more than 20 times. The presentation of culture is very very realistic and seems like daily life. This movie is the best Punjabi movie I've ever seen. Such a unique movie!
Hats off to every single person who worked on this project.
We need a sequel or at least a movie like this. Please !

Finally somebody broke the monotony of comedy movies in Punjabi cinema and made something really good. Story and screenplay is outstanding, it's kind of those movie which leave it's impression. Amrinder Gill & Sargun did a great job, most interesting part is watching Ammy Virk making his debut in Punjabi cinema which very good acting. Trust me, everybody should watch it. I'm sure it will be a good package what everyone expects from a movie. Generally only big budget movies have such combination of entertainment. But, Angrej broke that thing and showed us even Punjabi cinema can make movies like this. Good job everyone. Keep it up. Looking forward to see more movies like this in our Punjabi cinema. Thank you.
Let me straight on point without wasting time of readers.I was traveling from Lahore to Sahiwal.Film was played on LCD inside Bus.Normally i do not watch during travel but this film was such a master piece which cant not be ignored.I came home,again download it and saw many times alone and with friends.The way director portray simplicity of Punjab before partition was totally beyond perfection.Acting and songs were also awesome.Sets and folk songs customs were shoot beautifully.My ancestors were from Indian Punjab if they were alive this film would had made them cry as it made me.It has all elements what a beautiful film needs.Dialogues were simple and hilarious.and Binnu Dhillon always shine like star also Amrinder proved him self very good actor . Every Punjabi no matter he is from this side of border or other must watch this.This is truly KOH e NOOR of Punjabi cinema.I wish they will be another part with same casting and story line.This film just made my day.Hats off. Highly recommended.Thanks Simerjit Sing and Amberdeep Singh for giving us such a master piece.Lots of love
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.

- TriviaThe dargah at which Haakam Singh meets Maadho to gift her the radio, was created from scratch by the team of Angrej. To give it an authentic look, grooves for diyas were blackened like they are in a real dargah. Even the pigeons were hired to give it a real fee.
