Imtiaz Ali is currently basking the success of his latest directorial 'Amar Singh Chamkila' which stars Parineeti Chopra and Diljit Dosanjh in the lead.
In a recent interview, he revealed that his first wife had a child with him even after he married his second wife Amarjot Kaur.
Imtiaz said, “He had another
child with Gurmail after having a child with Amarjot. The circumstance of that has been explained to me by Chamkila's sister. I've it on record and I had written a scene about it also but had to cut it down because it was somehow a bit less relevant than the ones that were already there.”
He further added, "I couldn't show too much of her in the film because that part of Chamkila's life was hidden from Amarjot and the whole world. It's only later in the film that we revealed that he has another wife. I paper-edited the film a lot in order to bring it to the duration that it has today. But I agree that there's a lot that could have been discovered in their relationship.”
'Amar Singh Chamkila' released on April 12 on Neflix and is based on the chronicles of the life of the singing sensation Chamkila and his second wife Amarjot Kaur.
