The hallmark of the film is its script, crafted by the highly acclaimed writer Pali Bhupinder Singh. The narrative, combined with Singh’s expert writing, elevates the film into a poignant and powerful portrayal of India’s fight for freedom.
The success of Baghi Di Dhee is also attributed to its stellar cast, which includes Kuljinder Singh Sidhu, Dilnoor Kaur, Vaquar Shaikh, and Gurpreet Bhangu. Each actor brought depth and authenticity to their roles, delivering performances that have been widely praised by both audiences and critics.
The film’s music, which plays an integral role in enhancing the storytelling, features contributions from the famous singer-lyricist Bir Singh. Tejwant Kittu’s music composition further complements the film’s narrative, adding an emotional layer that resonates with the viewers.
Baghi Di Dhee is hailed as a masterpiece within Punjabi cinema, standing out as one of the few films that effectively showcases the bravery, valor, and determination of Indians in their struggle for independence from British colonial rule. Its success at the 70th National Film Awards not only highlights the film’s artistic achievements but also cements its place as an important work in the history of Indian cinema.
