hot in and around Chandigarh, the forthcoming Punjabi movie Bikkar Bai Senti Mental will star debut singer-turned-actor Jassi Jasraj, in the lead. Jasraj came to fame with his song Dhai Lakh di. The cast of the movie was in the city to promote their film.
Besides launching Jasraj, Bikar Bai Senti Mental is all set to challenge the rom-com predominance in Punjabi Movies with its Action/Drama theme. Produced by Sandeep Bansal and Kamaljit Kaur, the movie will hit screens on April 19, 2013.
Besides Jassi Jasraj, the cast of movie includes Preeti Jhangiani besides Rana Ranbir, Shahbaz Khan, Sardar Sohi, Kanwalpreet, and Bobby Sandhu. Gautam Nagrath, assistant director of the Bollywood film Garv, has directed the movie. Jassi Jasraj, Diljit Dosanjh, and Taranum have sung for the soundtrack. Most of the lyrics have been penned by Jassi Jasraj.
While speaking with Guardian20, Jasraj said, "It's a complete family entertainer with all the ingredients of drama, action, romance and comedy. It is a typical action-drama film, amid the slapstick comedy that characterises every Punjabi film now. I can vouch that your visit to the theatre would be worthwhile."
Preeti Jhangiani, who debuted in Punjabi Cinema with Sajna ve Sajna is all set for her second stint in regional cinema. While talking about her character she says, "I am playing the role of Jeeti, who is a strong-willed woman. The character is indeed very close to my heart and I believe every woman will be able to connect with her. She is the rock-like support to her mulish husband who challenges the rules of world." She further said, "During the shoot I never felt the pressure as I identified with the character. I knew what all we are made to face in our real life as a mother and as a wife."
