Jimmy
Sheirgill
has
turned
ultra
selective
after
A
Wednesday.
And
why
shouldn't
he
be?
After
all
he
has
been
delivering
consistently
for
more
than
a
decade
now,
ever
since
he
first
made
an
impression
with
Maachis.
Now
with
good
recognition
coming
his
way
after
varied
roles
in
films
like
A
Wednesday,
Strangers,
Eklavya
-
The
Royal
Guard
and
Bas
Ek
Pal,
it
is
but
natural
for
him
to
sit
back,
relax
and
take
a
good
stock
of
where
his
career
has
headed.
While
he
is
now
looking
at
picking
up
the
best
of
the
best
projects
in
Bollywood,
he
is
quietly
busy
shooting
for
his
next
Punjabi
film
in
Chandigarh.
Titled
Munde
UK
De,
the
film
brings
him
back
with
his
Yaaran
Naal
Bahaaran
director,
Manmohan
Singh.
An
acclaimed
director
in
Punjabi
films
who
has
a
cent
percent
record
in
the
territory
with
hits
like
Mitti
Waajan
Mardi,
Dil
Apna
Punjabi,
Asa
Nu
Maan
Watna
Da,
Jee
Aayan
Nu
and
of
course
Yaaran
Naal
Baharaan,
Manmohan
Singh
has
earlier
worked
extensively
with
Yash
Raj
Films
in
the
capacity
of
a
cinematographer
for
films
like
Chandni,
Lamhe,
Darr,
Dilwale
Dulhaniya
Le
Jayenge,
Dil
To
Pagal
Hai
and
Mohabbatein.
Says
Jimmy
Sheirgill,
"Munde
UK
De
is
the
story
of
a
couple
of
guys
who
have
lived
in
UK
all
their
life
and
now
step
their
feet
in
Punjab,
the
place
where
their
roots
lie.
The
two
backdrops
are
completely
in
contrast
to
each
other
and
how
these
two
boys
see
people
and
how
they
see
them
in
return
is
what
forms
the
crux
of
the
story."
Neeru
Bajwa,
who
was
earlier
been
seen
in
Dil
Apna
Punjabi
as
well
as
Asa
Nu
Maan
Watna
Da,
has
been
repeated
by
Manmohan
Singh
for
Munde
UK
De
as
the
leading
lady.
"The
film
is
a
feel
good
entertainer
with
embellished
with
a
lot
of
light
hearted
as
well
as
romantic
moments.
I
have
been
stationed
in
Chandigarh
for
close
to
a
month
now
and
thoroughly
enjoying
my
shoot.
Also,
for
the
character
I
play,
I
have
gone
through
a
makeover
by
sporting
spiked
hair
and
also
developed
a
slight
accent",
quips
Jimmy.
A
film
which
revolves
around
the
theme
of
generation
gap
and
culture
clash,
Munde
UK
De
is
not
just
directed
but
also
written
and
produced
by
Manmohan
Singh.
