angrej de âsache pyaarâ di entry
Mado (Aditi Sharma) is so pretty vaise

Flirt time at the mela. we see Angrez meet mado for the very first time.
I love this song so much. Their innocence is the highlight of this song, plus the whole mela scene that they created has my heart

Sanu sara hi jagg vekhda, tera kidda hath fada 
shout out to the era, when holding each others hand was the biggest achievement of being in love

After an unsuccessful attempt of hand-holding its time for Angrej to explain his friend what âsacha pyaarâ means. Aslam-Angrejâs friendship was so pure, something which made me connect to this movie more.
Os zamane vich if you wanted to get marry early, bas puthiya sidhiya harkatan kardo, your parents will get you hitch. Also, Angrej di bebe is another iconic character of this movie.
Telling your parents about your love life, explained in 4 pictures. Either you will land up on the bed or one of your parent 
âVe tainu loka diya theeyan pena naal aah kuj karde hoye sharam nahi aaiâ
âVe tainu loka diya theeyan pena naal aah kuj karde hoye sharam nahi aaiâ
Hakam, the ultimate playboy of this movie, the only character of this movie with grey shade.
His entry was very iconic. It was so brave of Ammy to do a negative role in his debut movie and look at him now

Hakam flirting with maddo and Madoâs bebe (Nirmal Rishi ji) killing it in this scene. My favorite line is : âVe holi bol pai, juban hi gai aa kaan nahiâ 
Kurta Suha is my the FAVORITE song. I have already told my cousins to play this at my maiyan 
because meri chadh ke jaan jaani, yaar ne kholiya pyaar da buha.

Maddo chose Radio, I mean Hakam over Angrej. Maddo was materialistic asf 
she wanted ghodiya, laveria and ittan vali kothi.
Sache pyaar di kadar nahi.

Aslam was a friend who would do anything to make his friend happy so he stole the radio. Basically ohna ne sada dil todiya asi ohna da Radio
I used to hear stories from my nanni how weddings were like in Punjab before partition. thanks to this movie we get to re-live it. While watching this movie I actually felt like attending a wedding in 1942s.
When I was watching this movie for the first time,I was so into it that I forgot Sargun di entry te hoi nahi.Finally she entered in the 2nd half, this was her debut movie too, she nailed it and how. If Angrej was heart of this movie, then Dhan Kaur was heart beat of this movie.
First meeting of Angrej and Dhan Kaur.
Dhan Kaur di boli munde de dil te jaake vaaji. He literally called out his mother for âgheesiâ Apni maa naal eda kon karda lmao
Dhan Kaur di boli munde de dil te jaake vaaji. He literally called out his mother for âgheesiâ
Apni maa naal eda kon karda lmao
Terva ratan barbaad by Angrej at night and by Dhan Kaur in the morning
I loved the way Dhan Kaur tried to break the ice by asking him what is the reason behind his devdas behavior, she was not typical shy next door girl.

Them eating ladoos and having small talk âTariyan vaal banda odon hi chaakda jado dharti te kuj gawa giya hoveâ
Also eh scene dekh ke mainu pinda de viaah yaad aa gaye, we all know this iconic room jithe saari mithai da dher laga hunda, literally pahad banake rakhe hunde

Tuna ek kam kar, rola
âHasiya Khedianâ So this was the first scene of iconic Qismat couple
Idk, if someone has noticed it or not. The moment Dhan Kaur wears the chuddi which Angrej bought for Mado, pehli lavan da path started playing in the background and I think that was lovely 
what a beautiful hint

Tappe: the most iconic song of this movie. I loved the way, whole situation was described through lyrics. It was a delight to see Ammy and Amrinder singing and performing so effortlessly. I watched this movie in a theater and the whole theater was pumped up after this song.
How to tell your friend that their partner is cheating on them?
1942s style: Just draw their partnerâs picture with someone else

Amrinder Gill literally acted with his eyes in this scene, there was no dialogue from Angrej to Hakam, just a death stare and Amrinder said everything through his eyes. He is so underrated as an Actor that it hurts 
Buzdil te oh hunda, jehra kudi de dil vich pyaar jagave par ohdi nibhon di niyat naa hove Their chemistry in this scene was fire

Angrej changed himself for Mado but Mado loved him after he changed himself.

Ehsas kraya ruhaniyat da
Seene te lgge fattan ne
Angrej realizing his love for Dhan Kaur and parallely removing the fake personality which he wore for Mado. This scene is aesthetically so pleasing.

In those times before proposing a girl pehla gharde manane pende. Obviously Bebe had to overreact. âEk hor, ve main ehda naam Angrej ki rakhta eh te angrezan vaale kam karan lag piaâ
Another reason to love this movie, they stucked with the reality of that era. You need to ask the parents first, Angrej standing up for his love after finding out that Dhan may have to marry Hakam has my whole heart. He had nothing to offer but his love and respect for Dhan Kaur
Ofcourse, its a happy ending. Angrej movie is special for punjabi cinema because Amrinder Gill and his team tried something which no one ever tried, even in Bollywood. Most of the movies made about pre-partition era are tragic or sad.
The movie showed Punjab of pre-partition with a different lense: lively, happy and colorful. The small details in this movies are so appreciation worthy. My Nanni watch this movie whenever she miss her village which is now in east Punjab.
Her childhood is left back in that Punjab and this movie helps her to re-visit that part of her life again. Amrinder Gill needs more appreciation for trying something different and giving Punjabi cinema a new direction.
