Punjab’s drug infamy is all set to be reflected in full glory in Udta Punjab. The just released trailer is uninhibited in its portrayal of Tommy Singh (Shahid Kapoor) a high on drugs rockstar who sings with glee and abuses with impunity while sporting long locks.
Rising young actress Alia Bhatt takes on a de-glam avatar as a migrant Bihari labourer and looks set to shock audience with something different. Her Bihari accent combined with her naivety makes her a treat to watch.

With a bevy of A-list actors and producers (Phantom and Balaji Telefilms) collaborating for Udta Punjab, one can hope that they have treated the bold subject in the best manner possible.
