Now, the multi-talented star is back with the second installment, 'Ardaas Karaan,' in a cinema space widely known for its romcoms and slapstick humour. The film which explores the pertinent issue of generation gap is slated to hit the theatres today.

It is a sequel to ‘Ardaas,' a film which received rave reviews from critics and audiences alike.

In an exclusive interview with SBS Punjabi, Mr Grewal shared that the movie explores the issue of generation gap faced by many families, particularly in Punjabi families who live outside India.

“This is an inspirational movie that aims to celebrate life. No matter what, people can achieve happiness despite their challenging environment,” said Mr Grewal.

“We have been frequently complimented for the previous version of the movie and we sincerely hope to continue the success story with this new storyline.”
