CreativityTranscript
00:00 Snow had such a big nose. It could reach up to -35 degrees.
00:07 -35 is so cold. And the doors were closed. So, he was kicking me. My hands were frozen. My legs were frozen.
00:18 I was telling you, in an interview, I was flying in a plane with Bajor Gubaita.
00:24 He asked me what I was doing. I said, "I'm just talking to him." He didn't recognize me. He said, "What's your name?"
00:30 I said, "Jayazibi." He said, "Okay, we'll talk later." When the flight was about to end, Bajor said, "Bajor, I'm fine."
00:39 I said, "What's wrong with Bajor?" He said, "He's a TV dude. He's a dangerous guy. He doesn't talk to anyone."
00:46 -Where we were shooting, in Hope or Sun Peak, there was no reception. So, no one could call. Even Gipi Bhai could call.
00:56 He kept looking. I said, "Let's not talk business now. Let's talk about the next day."
01:00 -Hello, I'm Jayazibi. -Hello, I'm Arshi Khatkar.
01:13 -Someone asks about clothes, and someone asks about the style of the hair.
01:18 -Someone asks about controversy, and someone asks about the hair.
01:21 -The heart asks about 9x station.
01:24 -I really liked the script of Snowman. When I got the call, I sat down and read the script. I read the whole arrangement.
01:38 I read the whole script. I should believe in the script. Quality is very important.
01:47 That's why I got the role. I hope everyone will like it. It's a different kind of concept.
01:54 Film is a whole different genre.
02:01 -I was born in Canada, so I thought this would be the best opportunity for me.
02:14 I was born in Canada, so I thought this would be the best opportunity for me.
02:23 -When you become a police officer, is it more of Punjab Police or Canada Police?
02:30 -It's more of Punjab Police. Canadian Police is very lenient and mellow.
02:38 But I enjoyed the role.
02:41 They say on set, "I look real."
02:48 -Arshi's dad made his directional debut. Was it his plan or was it a coincidence?
02:54 -It was the director's plan. But I was a little confused.
03:02 First, it was my dad. I should listen to my father.
03:05 But it was the director's plan. I was confused.
03:09 I was talking to my dad, not the director.
03:13 I was a little confused. But I was comfortable.
03:16 I was happy that my dad got the opportunity.
03:20 -Jassi, you haven't heard a story or taken a break in the years you haven't made a film.
03:26 -I've heard a lot of scripts.
03:28 Because when something starts working, it starts becoming a film.
03:33 Comedy, comedy, comedy. I'm not saying comedy is a bad thing.
03:37 But it's not my cup of tea.
03:39 There should be something different.
03:41 I've heard a lot of scripts, but I haven't felt anything.
03:44 So that's why I haven't done anything.
03:46 -Arshi, what was your experience with legendary artists like Neeru Bajwa, Jassi B, and Rana Ranbir?
03:53 -I was nervous when I heard the script.
03:56 I knew the actor. I was nervous to share the screen with such a big star.
04:02 I was afraid I'd say something wrong.
04:06 But Jassi Bajwa, Neeru Bajwa, Rana Bajwa, they all made me feel like a family.
04:12 I never felt nervous. I never felt scared.
04:15 I was confident when the camera was on.
04:22 It was like a family feeling.
04:26 There was no reception.
04:30 But our crew was very close.
04:32 I was very close to Jassi Bajwa.
04:36 We were very close.
04:38 So I felt like we were close because of the reception.
04:43 -How much did Snow bother you when you were shooting Snowman?
04:47 -Snow was like this.
04:49 He'd come to take me to places.
04:51 He'd come to -35 degrees.
04:54 -35 is a very easy number.
04:56 There was a scene where he was in a helicopter.
05:02 My partner in the film, Chris,
05:05 he'd knock on the door and say, "Get the helicopter."
05:10 I was in pain. My hands and legs were frozen.
05:16 But that's the beauty of it.
05:18 When he says, "No pain, no gain."
05:23 I thought he'd bring the pain.
05:25 It was fun.
05:26 -Arshi, tell us about the funny moments you had with Neeru Bajwa, Jassi B, and Rana Ranbir.
05:32 -One funny moment.
05:34 We were shooting a scene with Jassi Bajwa.
05:37 We were sliding down the hill.
05:41 We were running after Snowman.
05:43 I knew Jassi Bajwa would be very sprinty.
05:47 But I didn't know he'd run so fast.
05:49 I had to run after him.
05:51 Whenever we cut, he'd laugh at me.
05:54 He'd say, "I was running so fast."
05:57 That was funny.
05:59 Rana Ranbir and Neeru Bajwa were great on set.
06:03 I can't say it was just one moment.
06:05 We were supposed to break the log.
06:08 The water was dripping down.
06:10 I was breaking it.
06:12 I was almost slipping.
06:14 Rana Ranbir told me, "Go slow. Go slow."
06:21 But everyone was having fun.
06:23 Everyone was having fun.
06:25 Everyone was having fun.
06:27 -Jassi, what do you think?
06:29 Will there be any change in the Punjabi industry with Snowman?
06:33 -Definitely.
06:35 The industry will definitely change with Snowman.
06:39 It's a different concept.
06:41 The shooting is very different.
06:45 DOP Jay sir did a lot of South Indian films.
06:49 He did Hindi films too.
06:51 And Guri Pangu from True Root Production.
06:53 You'll know from DOP that he did framing.
06:57 It was great that Gipi Bai was there.
07:01 Gipi Bai had so much experience.
07:03 She had done so many films.
07:05 She used to frame the phone first.
07:09 "Shoot it like this."
07:11 It was a great teamwork.
07:15 I had a lot of expectations.
07:17 I had a request.
07:19 Everyone should go and watch it in the cinema.
07:21 -Arshi, how much preparation did you do for the film?
07:23 -When I was younger, I used to copy.
07:27 I used to copy the main actor.
07:31 I used to copy him.
07:33 I used to take drama classes in school.
07:37 I used to take it in elementary school.
07:41 When we talk about this film,
07:43 I found out about it a month or two ago.
07:45 My character's mindset is not very bold.
07:49 He talks mostly with his eyes.
07:51 I started preparing for that.
07:53 I'm not that bold.
07:55 I just talk with action.
07:57 My father used to say that I don't talk much.
08:01 I just started getting into the character.
08:05 I was just getting ready for that.
08:07 -You have returned to the film industry.
08:09 Why did you become a rude boy?
08:11 -People think that.
08:15 I always tell you that
08:17 I was flying in an interview
08:19 with Bajor Gubaita.
08:21 They asked me what I do.
08:23 I told them that I'm a big talker.
08:25 They didn't recognize me.
08:27 They asked me what my name was.
08:29 I told them that I'm Jazzy B.
08:31 When the flight was about to end,
08:33 Bajor said to me,
08:35 "You're a good guy."
08:37 I asked him what he meant.
08:39 He said that I looked like a rude boy on TV.
08:41 It was a dangerous job.
08:43 No one would say that.
08:45 That's why I'm a good guy on stage.
08:51 -How many calls did you get from your girlfriends
08:55 while shooting?
08:57 -It was great.
08:59 We used to leave the hotel at 6 AM.
09:03 That would be our last call.
09:05 We used to shoot in Hope or Sun Peak.
09:09 There was no reception there.
09:11 No one called us.
09:13 Even Gipi Bhai used to call.
09:15 He used to keep checking.
09:17 I told him to leave it.
09:19 It was a good thing.
09:21 It was a good job.
09:23 You have to do it yourself.
09:25 You can't sit and talk to everyone
09:27 and not do it yourself.
09:29 -You were saved.
09:31 -What are your thoughts on these words?
09:35 Friendship.
09:37 -Everything.
09:39 Nothing is without friendship.
09:41 -Social media.
09:43 -Very important.
09:45 You can't live without it.
09:47 -It's important to interact with fans.
09:49 You can talk to fans.
09:51 You can show what you want to show
09:53 through social media.
09:55 -Music.
09:57 -Music is life.
09:59 Music is everything.
10:01 Eat music. Sleep music.
10:03 Get up again. Eat, sleep, music.
10:05 You can't live without music.
10:07 You think about it.
10:09 You turn on the music in the car.
10:11 You listen to music on the phone.
10:13 We have a music studio.
10:15 We have a music studio.
10:17 We have a music studio.
10:19 Guru Sahib has written all the raga.
10:21 There is no life without music.
10:23 -Love.
10:25 -Love.
10:27 What can we say about love?
10:29 You can't live without love.
10:31 You need love.
10:33 Love is not romantic.
10:35 You can't say love.
10:37 You can't say love to your parents.
10:39 You can say
10:41 whatever you have been taught
10:43 by your parents.
10:45 You don't get it with love.
10:47 That's the most important thing.
10:49 -Jayzi, what do you think?
10:51 Which incidents in your life
10:53 changed you completely?
10:55 -I started in 1993.
10:57 After that, I went to England.
10:59 I went to Canada.
11:01 There were a lot of shows.
11:03 A lot.
11:05 I mean, there were 23-25 shows.
11:07 But it was too much.
11:09 There was too much.
11:11 I had a vocal cord problem.
11:13 It's called meningitis.
11:15 I had a vocal cord problem.
11:17 I couldn't sing.
11:19 I remember
11:21 I used to cry all night.
11:23 I thought I will be fine.
11:25 I was 23 years old.
11:27 My career was going to end.
11:29 My doctor told me
11:31 there is no cure.
11:33 You have to rest.
11:35 I came to India.
11:37 I rested here.
11:39 But that was
11:41 the scariest moment for me.
11:43 My friend Manjeet Pappu,
11:45 the Gurudwara of Shimabadshah,
11:47 in the village of Durgapur,
11:49 he died there.
11:51 Khandpath.
11:53 Malik's Karpana Ji Gada,
11:55 the album released in 1997,
11:57 Vocal Traction, Pyaar Da Mukhadama,
11:59 that was a great album.
12:01 That was the scariest moment for me.
12:03 That's why I say
12:05 we should be afraid of Malik.
12:07 It's a game of 10 seconds.
12:09 He can be silenced.
12:11 That was the scariest moment for me.
12:13 Arshi, what was the scariest moment
12:15 of your life?
12:17 The scariest moment?
12:19 Luckily, I am not going to be harmed.
12:21 But my dad gets sick.
12:23 My mom gets sick.
12:25 My dad gets injured.
12:27 Once my dad got injured
12:29 while he was working in the garden.
12:31 He got injured.
12:33 I couldn't do anything.
12:35 I was helpless in that situation.
12:37 Obviously, he had fully recovered.
12:39 He had gone to the hospital.
12:41 He had only a few stitches.
12:43 It wasn't a big deal.
12:45 But when you see it,
12:47 you feel helpless.
12:49 That was the scariest moment of my life.
12:51 What is the best decision
12:53 you have ever made in your life?
12:55 I have made a lot of decisions.
12:57 I think,
12:59 I wouldn't say decision,
13:01 I would say risk-taker.
13:03 I don't know
13:05 if you remember or I remember.
13:07 In my first album,
13:09 my style was different.
13:11 I went to India.
13:13 (sings)
13:15 (sings)
13:17 (sings)
13:19 That album totally changed my style.
13:21 Dinesh's mother,
13:23 I call her mother,
13:25 she said, "Yes, Moya, you were recognized by Maseeda."
13:27 "Now your style has changed."
13:29 I felt that.
13:31 The music of that album
13:33 was completely different.
13:35 We released that album
13:37 in June.
13:39 No one released an album in summer.
13:41 I felt that my decision was wrong.
13:43 But by God's grace,
13:45 the album was released.
13:47 People started saying
13:49 that no other album was released.
13:51 People go on vacation in summer.
13:53 That's why it was released.
13:55 That was my decision.
13:57 It was wrong, but God set it.
13:59 If you want to give up
14:01 a habit, what would it be?
14:03 Believe people too much.
14:05 Everyone has a habit of trusting people.
14:07 Sometimes it happens,
14:09 but I don't want to do it anymore.
14:11 I am forced to do it.
14:13 I am trying to get rid of that habit.
14:15 I am trying to be alert.
14:17 Sometimes I look like a different person.
14:19 That's the habit.
14:21 But I am glad I got it.
14:23 Without that, I wouldn't have been able to do it.
14:25 That's the thing.
14:27 Like Ustad Kuldeep Manek's
14:29 habit that you also had.
14:31 The biggest thing is
14:33 to say it on the face.
14:35 The video you made of Ustadji,
14:37 sometimes the person gets angry
14:39 about what he says.
14:41 But he thinks about it.
14:43 So, I get a lot of support.
14:45 Ustadji sometimes performs for me.
14:47 He says, "My son-in-law is like this."
14:49 I say, "I didn't make it."
14:51 But when you are so close to someone,
14:53 you get a lot of support.
14:55 When you are so close to someone,
14:57 you get a lot of love.
14:59 You meet someone for the first time
15:01 in four years.
15:03 You meet your uncle,
15:05 and you get a chance
15:07 to meet that person.
15:09 You get a chance to work in a studio.
15:11 You get a chance to do a whole album.
15:13 And then you get to hold hands.
15:15 Is there anything else
15:17 that you want to do
15:19 besides singing and acting?
15:21 I am very fond of hockey.
15:23 I used to play ice hockey.
15:25 Wayne Gretzky was a top player.
15:27 He is still my favorite.
15:29 I still play hockey.
15:31 I go to my nephew's house.
15:33 But if I don't become
15:35 a professional,
15:37 I will try to do it.
15:39 Do you do skating?
15:41 I rent a big house.
15:43 We rent it at 12 at night.
15:45 We rent an arena.
15:47 It is cheap.
15:49 It costs $5-5.
15:51 We rent it for $5-5.
15:53 We are very fond of it.
15:55 What is your favorite Punjabi film?
15:57 My favorite Punjabi film?
15:59 I like English,
16:01 I like Ghodan Da Fakro,
16:03 I like Ardaas.
16:05 But I don't think I have produced anything
16:07 that I have not liked.
16:09 I liked Jinn Mahajal.
16:11 If you had to steal one thing
16:13 from Jazzy B Bhaji, what would it be?
16:15 Two things.
16:17 One is his style,
16:19 and the other is his dance moves.
16:21 I like his dance moves.
16:23 I tried to copy him
16:25 on the set,
16:27 but it was impossible.
16:29 His style is completely unique.
16:31 What is your biggest advice to your dad?
16:33 Be genuine.
16:35 Be humble.
16:37 I told him before the movie,
16:39 that you should keep this.
16:41 What you were before the movie,
16:43 you should keep it after the movie.
16:45 He said, this is a hard work.
16:47 You have to put in a lot of effort.
16:49 When you enter the character,
16:51 you enter the character.
16:53 If you think of a sad scene,
16:55 you have to be genuine.
16:57 You have to put in a lot of effort.
16:59 Like many artists,
17:01 they are very humble before the song.
17:03 Do you do the same?
17:05 When I was asked
17:07 what do you remember about Ustadji,
17:09 I said,
17:11 he drinks cold water.
17:13 Very cold.
17:15 I understood this
17:17 when I had a sore throat.
17:19 It's the opposite of nature.
17:21 In everything.
17:23 The doctors in our country,
17:25 they say,
17:27 don't take hot water.
17:29 Drink warm water.
17:31 The whites say,
17:33 no.
17:35 They say, wear a shirt and put on a jacket.
17:37 So,
17:39 when I had a sore throat,
17:41 they said, eat ice cream.
17:43 I said, I have a sore throat.
17:45 I don't care.
17:47 I drink cold water on stage.
17:49 Everyone has their own habits.
17:51 How to maintain it.
17:53 How it suits them.
17:55 But I don't care.
17:57 I drink cold water.
17:59 When are you releasing an album?
18:01 The first song
18:03 has been released.
18:05 Root Boy.
18:07 The title of the album
18:09 is Born Ready.
18:11 That was the thought.
18:13 I always say,
18:15 there is a lot of confidence in young people.
18:17 Then Ustad ji said,
18:19 I won't believe in myself.
18:21 How else will I believe in you?
18:23 Believe in yourself.
18:25 Never give up.
18:27 The whole album
18:29 is to inspire.
18:31 Dr. Seuss's music is in 11 songs.
18:33 They are slowly dropping.
18:35 One song will be released.
18:37 The second will be released.
18:39 The first song you give love,
18:41 I will give love to that song.
18:43 We have worked hard for ourselves.
18:45 Dr. Seuss has worked hard.
18:47 The writers have written well.
18:49 So, Born Ready
18:51 is coming soon.
18:53 [Music]
