According to The Cinemaholic, Amar Singh Chamkila first tied the knot with Gurmail Kaur in the 1970s, as depicted in the biopic. Later on, Chamkila eventually moved to Ludhiana and started working in a cloth mill. With his first wife Gurmail, Chamkila had two daughters, Amandeep Kaur and Kamaldeep Kaur.

Amandeep Kaur - Amandeep Kaur chose to stay away from the limelight and opted to leas a normal life. According to India Times, Amandeep was four years old when her father died. Life was very difficult after Chamkila's death as she had to take care of her mother too.

Kamaldeep Kaur - Chamkila's second daughter, Kamal, followed her father's legacy and currently lives in Canada. She collaborated with Punjabi singer Raj Brar for her debut song Lalkara and is known by her stage name Kamal Chamkila.

His second wife was Amarjot, whom he married in the 1980s and their relationship initially started on a trial basis. But one thing led to another, and they ended up formalizing their union in 1983 without Chamkila ever separating from his first wife, Gurmail.

With Amarjot, Chamkila also had two children, Jaiman Singh Chamkila, and another whose identity remains unidentified. It is said that the couple's second child, who was merely 15 days old, died soon after the parents' assassination as the child couldn't survive.


Jaiman Singh Chamkila - Following his father's footsteps, Jaiman also made a career in music. He is a recording singer-songwriter and live performer. Jaiman is married and currently resides in Jamalpur, Ludhiana, Punjab.

Amar Singh Chamkila, directed by Imtiaz Ali and starring Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra, premiered on Netflix on April 12, 2024.
