What Sonam Bajwa said after Godday Godday Cha won the National Award

Sonam Bajwa’s Punjabi film Godday Godday Cha, won the National Award for Best Punjabi Language Film.

A trailblazer in both commercial cinema and stories driven by strong female characters, Sonam shared her thoughts.

“Winning the National Award for Best Punjabi Film for Godday Godday Cha is a truly humbling and special feeling! The film received so much love at the box office, and now, to be recognised at the national level is a blessing,” she says.

This marks Sonam’s second Punjabi film to win a National Award. Her first was Punjab 1984, directed by Anurag Singh, who also helmed Kesari and the upcoming film, Border 2.

Sonam adds, “I’ll continue being part of both commercial and path-breaking cinema in Punjabi and Hindi. That’s what gives me a real high as an actor—being part of stories that entertain, engage, and are celebrated by both audiences and the nation.”
