Missing stars: The absence of leading actresses in Punjab’s cinematic realm

The vibrant world of Punjabi cinema, known for its lively narratives and charismatic stars, has seen a wave of talented actresses who once graced the screen but seem to have taken a hiatus from Pollywood. These actresses, hailed for their impactful performances and screen presence, left a mark on audiences and their absence has left fans eagerly anticipating their return.

Surveen Chawla
Surveen Chawla stands as one of the notable names in the Punjabi cine world, making her entry in 2011 with the film ‘Dharti’. With subsequent hits like ‘Taur Mittran Di’, ‘Saadi Love Story’, and ‘Singh Vs Kaur’, Chawla carved a niche for herself in Pollywood. However, her last appearance in the Punjabi film circuit was in ‘Hero Naam Yaad Rakhi’ back in 2015. Despite her absence from the regional cinema, Chawla has garnered significant attention on the OTT platform, showcasing her talent in series like ‘Decoupled’ and ‘Rana Naidu’. While her work in these projects has been lauded by viewers, her fans remain eager for her return to the Punjabi silver screen.

Sunanda Sharma
Sunanda Sharma, celebrated for her mesmerizing vocals that consistently churn out chart-topping Punjabi tracks, ventured into acting with her debut in Pollywood in 2018 through ‘Sajjan Singh Rangroot’. Her performance was widely appreciated; however, following her debut, Sharma’s presence in Punjabi cinema diminished, leaving audiences awaiting her reappearance on the big screen.

Mahie Gill
Mahie Gill, known for her notable roles in Bollywood, entered the realm of Punjabi cinema in 2004. Her portrayal in films like ‘Carry On Jatta’ and ‘Shareek’ earned her immense acclaim. Gill’s last known appearance in Pollywood was in ‘Jora: The Second Chapter’, portraying the role of a lady cop. Since then, updates about her subsequent projects in the Punjabi film industry have been scarce, leaving fans curious about her next move.

Monica Gill,
Monica Gill, whose claim to fame in Punjabi cinema began with her debut opposite Diljit Dosanjh in ‘Ambarsariyan’ in 2016, swiftly made her presence felt in both Punjabi and Hindi films. However, after her 2019 film ‘Yaara Ve’, details regarding her upcoming projects in the Punjabi film domain have been elusive, leaving followers anticipating her next venture on the regional cinematic landscape.

These actresses, renowned for their talent and contributions to Punjabi cinema, have seemingly taken a hiatus from the Pollywood spotlight. While their individual journeys have led them to explore diverse platforms and projects, the audience’s yearning for their return to the vibrant world of Punjabi films remains palpable.

Their absence has sparked curiosity and speculation among fans, who eagerly await news of their upcoming projects and potential comebacks to the regional cinematic space.
