How Kohrra & Carry on Jatta 3 offer two fascinating and distinct portrayals of Punjab
FirstpostIn a scene from the recently released Carry on Jatta 3, an outspoken son tells his father “Kuddi ta bomb hai!” to which the overenthusiastic father asks, rather bluntly, “taa main ki Ukraine tey satni hai?” That punchline translates to a crude joke that lands because it is set in the world of Punjabi comedy’s innocence. While Kohrra is a damning indictment of the unseen and the understudied, Carry on Jatta is merely the sum of the culture’s many formulaic tropes. Below the surface-level economics and cultural whims, however, the Punjabi comedy also embodies this tendency to look away from the state’s many problems; a kernel of truth that Kohrra unearths by wiping clean the mist of ignorance. Carry on Jatta 3 is likely to become the highest grossing film in Punjab’s long but chequered cinematic history.
