Ikk Kudi - Starring Shehnaaz Gill - Releasing on 31 Oct 2025
'Ikk Kudi', starring Shehnaaz Gill in a powerful lead role. A tale of love, doubt, and family legacy set in Punjab—now in theaters on October 31, 2025. Dharma-distributed emotional rollercoaster!
'Ikk Kudi' is an upcoming Punjabi-language social drama film written and directed by Amarjit Singh Saron, produced jointly by Raaya Picturez, Shehnaaz Gill Productions, and Amor Film Presents. This marks Shehnaaz Gill's debut as a producer under her own banner, alongside her starring role as the resilient Simi. Distributed by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, the film boasts a strong supporting cast including Nirmal Rishi as the wise matriarch, Gurdev Dhaliwal, Harby Sangha, Udaybir Sandhu, Sukhi Chahal, and Nikita Grover, blending generational wisdom with youthful turmoil.
Set in the lush heartlands of Punjab, the story unfolds across two timelines, exploring themes of love, arranged marriages, and the scars of broken hearts in a family where no one has found lasting happiness. Simi, from a lineage of failed unions, enters an arranged marriage with hope, only for nagging doubts about her charming fiancé's hidden past to surface days before the wedding. What begins as a quest for truth spirals into a profound journey of self-discovery, resilience, and redefining belonging, challenging societal norms while celebrating Punjabi spirit and female strength.
Originally slated for September 19, 2025, the release was postponed to October 31, 2025, as a show of solidarity with Punjab's flood-affected communities, with the team pledging support through NGOs. The soundtrack, featuring vibrant tracks like the wedding banger 'Khaand Laggdi' sung by Jasmine Sandlas with music by Mix Singh, has already ignited social media—Shehnaaz's bold moves in a yellow salwar suit are dominating Reels, earning praise for its festive energy and her "patola" vibe. Principal photography wrapped earlier this year, promising authentic visuals of Punjab's vibrant culture, emotional depth, and subtle humor.
With buzz building from BTS glimpses of Shehnaaz's transformation and fan excitement over her producer hat, 'Ikk Kudi' positions itself as a poignant addition to Punjabi cinema, echoing the emotional pull of films like Ik Kudi Punjab Di but with a modern feminist lens. Don't miss this Diwali-season release—it's a reminder that true love often demands the courage to question and heal!
