Mohali, 22nd December 2025 (Punjabi Teshan) Chaupal has released the Punjabi film Shaunki Sardar, a drama that foregrounds brotherhood, human values, and emotional integrity through a grounded and realistic narrative. The film steers away from spectacle-driven storytelling and instead focuses on relationships, moral responsibility, and the quiet strength of standing by one’s principles.
Headlined by Babbu Maan, Shaunki Sardar has struck a strong chord with audiences, especially following his acclaimed film Hashar. His performance in the film has been widely appreciated for its restraint, depth, and authenticity. Portraying a man guided by dignity, loyalty, and ethical conviction, Maan anchors the film emotionally and reinforces its central theme of brotherhood.
At its core, Shaunki Sardar explores the idea of brotherhood—highlighting trust, solidarity, and standing together in times of adversity. The narrative reflects how shared values and relationships define true strength, emphasising patience and moral choices over aggression or confrontation.
Guru Randhawa appears in a pivotal role, with Shaunki Sardar emerging as a successful project in his acting journey. The film has been well received by audiences for his performance and screen presence, making it a notable milestone for him beyond his music career.
The film also marks the first OTT appearance of Nimrat Kaur Ahluwalia. Her role adds emotional balance and sensitivity to the storyline, contributing meaningfully to the film’s emotional arc rather than serving as a mere supporting presence.
Visually rooted in Punjab, Shaunki Sardar uses understated dialogue, realistic settings, and a measured pace that allows emotions to unfold organically. The film relies on character-driven storytelling and simplicity to leave a lasting impression.
With its focus on brotherhood, values, and emotionally grounded performances, Shaunki Sardar offers a thoughtful Punjabi cinematic experience and is currently streaming on Chaupal.
