Maurh is based on the lives of Jeon and Kishna Maurh, who had risen against the oppression of both the British and zamindars in pre-partition Punjab. Unable to tolerate humiliation of their family, Kishna joins the bandits. When Kishna is executed by the Brits, Jeona takes up arms to fight for his people. Maurh is a tale of revenge, betrayal and valour.
The film was earlier titled Jatt Jeona Morh. It was later renamed Maurh. The shooting of the film started in November 2022. [5][6][7]
The film is slated for a digital premiere on ZEE5.
The film received mostly positive response from critics. Rating the film 3.5 out of 5, The Indian Express commented, “With mostly light-hearted comedies and dramas to his credit so far, Virk proves that he can shine as an action hero as well.”[11] PTC Punjabi commented, “For those who desire for a thought-provoking and compelling cinematic experience, 'Maurh' is a must-watch.”[12] Kiddaan.com questioned the screenplay of the film.[13]
Despite glowing reviews and a superstar cast, Maurh opened to a lukewarm response at the box office. It collected 2.5 crore in the first weekend. [14][15]
The trailer of the movie was launched on May 28, 2023. [16][17]
