In a heartfelt and unprecedented tribute, the teaser features late legendary comedy icon Jaswinder Bhalla in a special appearance, who passed away last year at the age of 65.
According to the press note by the makers, the recreation of actor Jaswinder Bhalla has been achieved through a meticulous blend of advanced VFX and CG techniques. The process spanned over six months, during which footage from one of his earlier films was carefully sourced and scanned to ensure an authentic and respectful representation.
The teaser was shared on the Instagram handle of Gippy Grewal. The video opens with Gippy and Binnu remembering the late actor. Soon after, Jaswinder Bhalla made a surprise return from the afterlife in the costume of a lawyer, signifying his presence in the film.
Famous Punjabi actor and comedian Jaswinder Bhalla, who ruled hearts for decades as the âcomedy king' with social satire and cultural commentary, passed away in August last year. The veteran actor had been ill for a long time.
He would be remembered for his comic roles in the Punjabi film industry. Jaswinder Bhalla was known for his roles in Punjabi films like âCarry On Jatta', âMahaul Theek Hai', âJatt Airways' and 'Jatt & Juliet 2'.
Jaswinder Bhalla was also known for giving his characters catchy phrases, which made even small roles memorable for the viewers. He started acting with films such as âDulha Bhatti' and also appeared in fellow comedian Jaspal Bhatti's Hindi comedy âMahaul Theek Hai'. His role as advocate Dhillon in the three âCarry On Jatta' films made him a household name.
His last performance was in âShinda Shinda No Papa' (2024), where he shared the screen with Gippy Grewal and Hina Khan in the lead roles.
Born in 1960, Jaswinder Bhalla was a professor by profession but he soon entered the world of comedy through âChhankata 88'. After its great success, there was no looking back.
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann described the sudden departure of Jaswinder Bhalla as "extremely sorrowful". "The heart is saddened by the silence of the jingle of Chhankatian.. May Waheguru grant him a place at His feetâ¦Chacha Chatra will always reside in our hearts," CM Mann wrote on X.
