7 Hit Movies Punjabi 2022 Direct

It’s Diljit Dosanjh . Need we say more? The fan following alone guaranteed a hit. But beyond that, the film successfully rebooted a beloved franchise by shifting from romantic comedy to action-comedy. Neeru Bajwa looked stunning and matched Diljit’s energy beat for beat.

A hilarious case of mistaken identity. Girdhari (Gippy) is a struggling actor who gets hired to pretend to be a rich businessman’s son. He accidentally falls for the daughter of a rival family, leading to a chaotic wedding season full of lies, songs, and slapstick.

Let’s be honest: the plot is a recycled 90s Bollywood trope. But the execution is fresh. The cinematography captures the vibrant Punjab vs. sterile London dichotomy beautifully. Sargun Mehta has a smaller role but shines in the emotional scenes. The film’s strength is its supporting cast—Karamjit Anmol and Rana Jung Bahadur are hilarious. The weakness? A predictable second half. You know exactly how it ends, but you don’t mind the journey. A perfect Sunday afternoon watch.

⭐⭐⭐ (3/5) 7. Zindagi Zindabaad (Released: December 2022) Starring: Satinder Sartaaj, Sargun Mehta, Neeru Bajwa Director: Manav Shah 7 Hit Movies Punjabi 2022

Saunkan Saunkne was a masterclass in balancing social commentary with commercial comedy. In lesser hands, the subject would have been sleazy. Here, it was treated with warmth. Sargun Mehta delivered a career-best performance—her confusion between the simpleton husband and the romantic brother-in-law was palpable. Nimrat Khaira, primarily a singer, stunned as the shy, earnest second husband.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) 2. Maujaan Hi Maujaan (Released: June 2022) Starring: Gippy Grewal, Sargun Mehta, Binnu Dhillon, Tanu Grewal Director: Smeep Kang

Let’s dive into the long reviews of the 7 hits that defined 2022. Starring: Ammy Virk, Sargun Mehta, Nimrat Khaira Director: Amarjit Singh Saron It’s Diljit Dosanjh

⭐⭐⭐½ (3.5/5) 6. Shava Ni Girdhari Lal (Released: November 2022) Starring: Gippy Grewal, Harnaaz Kaur Sandhu (Miss Universe 2021), Sargun Mehta, Prince Kanwaljit Singh Director: Gippy Grewal

⭐⭐⭐ (3/5) – purely for Diljit’s swag. 4. Puaada (Released: August 2022 – Note: Technically delayed from 2021, but major theatrical hit in 2022 ) Starring: Ammy Virk, Sonam Bajwa Director: Rupinder Chahal

If 2021 was about the industry finding its feet post-pandemic, 2022 was about soaring. Punjabi cinema in 2022 broke the shackles of formulaic rom-coms and rural stereotypes. The seven films listed below weren’t just box-office successes; they were cultural milestones. From gritty action (Maujaan Hi Maujaan) to spiritual horror (Jatt & Juliet 3? —actually, let's stick to 2022’s gems like Saunkan Saunkne ) and heart-wrenching drama, these movies proved that Punjabi audiences crave variety. But beyond that, the film successfully rebooted a

The chemistry between Ammy and Sonam is electric. The first half is a breeze—fun, flirty, and filled with beautiful Punjab landscapes. The second half is a slow burn as the families clash. The dialogue is sharp: "Tusi shatranj diya rani ho, jeetna assi sikha dange" (You are a queen in chess, we’ll teach you how to win). The climax doesn’t rely on violence but on a clever speech, which is refreshing. The only flaw is the pacing—the middle 20 minutes drag slightly. A wholesome family hit.

This is a revenge drama to the core. The background score by Gopi Sunder is thunderous. The fight choreography is brutal—no wire-fu, just fistfights in muddy fields. Neeru Bajwa has a meaty role, not just a prop. The film doesn’t shy away from showing rural poverty and the nexus of power. However, the violence is extreme for a family audience. The emotional arc is predictable. You know who dies and who wins from the first scene. But the journey is engaging. A solid one-time watch for action lovers.

Harnaaz Sandhu’s debut. The Miss Universe title brought massive hype. But beyond that, the film is a laugh-a-minute rollercoaster. Gippy Grewal directing himself worked—he gave himself the best comedic lines.

This time, the "Jatt" (Diljit) and "Juliet" (Neeru) are undercover cops in Canada, pretending to be a married couple on a honeymoon to catch a drug lord. Their old bickering chemistry returns, but this time, the stakes are life and death.
