DOTW

it probably makes them feel better abt themselves!! 😆

Also i dont think that Singers get the recognition that Actors get...so their trying to promote themselves.

Nowadays Actors are starting to sing too!! whats the need?

besides the singer becoming more famous, cause actors get more exposure, all these punjabi singers turning actors is helping the punjabi entertainment industry. hindi culture is widely known across the globe because of bollywood andits influence of movies. any punjabi movie made should be supported because it will help punjabi culture survive and perhaps even get global recognition one day. remember, punjabi bhangra isgivin uspunjabi's around the world already a good identity.

do their films make them even more famous?

yes, especially if the film is a hit/super-hit.

should they simply stick to singing because that's what they're good at?

they should keep on singin too but if they can act in a well produced movie then they should and we should support them by watchin their movies.

any other singers you know of who have starred in films?

currently besides harbhajan and gurdas mann, babbu mann starred in two movies (hawayein-hindi, and rabb ne banaiyan jodiean), and sarbjit cheema has made one movie too (pind di kudi).in the past malkit singh, surinder shinda, and hans raj hans have made their own movies too but they are really old and i've never seen them.

were they any good?

pind di kudi starring sarbjit cheema was pretty good and had a good theme and babbu mann's rabb ne baniyan jodiean was 😕. babbu's movie was decent but he looked more like a villain than hero.

Yea i agree with u on most of the talk lol.... was good reading it... yea i agree babbu maan did look like a villain lmao the funny bit was when he jumped out of no where with a Agentina football shirt on.... lol in india as well haha that cracked me up about the story that was really good poor acting thats the only part...

nice topic 😃

i'll answer this in a bit.. but jus wondering.. why do we have TWO DOTW's right now? 🤔 maye we should close one and then open it next week for DOTW

so why do these successful singers feel the need to act in films?
-- I think they're just promoting themselves and by using their songs in the movie, it definitely helps their fame!

do their films make them even more famous?
-- Depends on the actor/singer, honestly. Some singers.. just can't act and some actors.. just can't sing.

or should they simply stick to singing because that's what they're good at?
-- I think they should stick to what they're good at.

-- Harbhajan Mann.. he's an okay actor and singer. He would pass, yeah. I don't believe Gurdas Mann is a good singer though.. he is a good actor, yes.

Awesome questions!
