Plot
Angrej, directed by Simerjit Singh, is a beautifully crafted period drama that transports viewers to the rustic charm of pre-Partition Punjab. At its heart is Angrej Singh, portrayed with endearing sincerity by Amrinder Gill, a modest and good-natured young man who believes in love, loyalty, and traditional values. Angrej madly loves Maado (played by Aditi Sharma), a graceful village girl who captivates his heart.He dreams of marrying her and building a life together, but his journey is far from easy.
As Angrej pursues Maado, he encounters the harsh realities of class divisions, social norms, and family expectations that complicate their love story. Just when it seems like heartbreak is inevitable, fate brings Dhann Kaur into his life—an outspoken, independent, and refreshingly modern young woman played brilliantly by Sargun Mehta. Her entrance adds a new dimension to Angrej’s emotional journey, challenging his perceptions of love and what truly matters in a partner.
What truly sets Angrej apart from typical romantic dramas is its rich cultural texture. The film lovingly captures the traditions, customs, attire, and lifestyle of 1940s Punjab with remarkable authenticity. From lively wedding songs to everyday village life, every frame feels like a carefully painted canvas of the past. The film’s strength lies in its balance of gentle humor, touching romance, and poignant storytelling, all wrapped in visually stunning cinematography.
Angrej is more than just a rom-com—it’s a sentimental journey through time, celebrating the essence of Punjabi culture while exploring universal themes of love, self-discovery, and acceptance.
