Manje Bistre Released on the auspicious day of Vaisakhi, this Gippy Grewal and Sonam Bajwa starrer reminded Punjabi viewers of those dormant Punjabi traditions that are almost on the brink of extinction today. Set in the background of days when relatives used to flock the house many days before the wedding and people would knock on their neighbors’ doors to collect cots and mattresses to arrange bedding for their relatives, Manje Bistre was certainly an idea which was never introduced in the industry before. Manje Bistre, written by Gippy Grewal became one of the top grossing films of the year which is clear indication of the kind of content that Punjabi audience craves for. publive-image Super Singh Well, if there was anything missing in Punjabi Film Industry then it was the concept of a superhero which was eventually fulfilled by this Diljit Dosanjh and Sonam Bajwa starrer.
