Gurmail Kaur on her equation with Amarjot
In an interview with Mitti's YouTube channel, Gurmail said that their relation has always been cordial. “Chamkila would visit alone and not bring Amarjot along. But she did visit me sometimes. There was no tension between us. We used to mingle well with each other. While she cooked vegetables, I made roti. She didn’t know how to make rotis. Even after the second marriage, it wasn’t like she was more important and I wasn’t special. Chamkila used to treat us equally and brought us similar things.”

Gurmail on life after Chamkila's death
Talking about the aftermath of Chamkila's passing, Gurmail shared the challenges she faced amidst legal battles and raising their children. She also spoke about taking care of Chamkila's uncle, whose mental health deteriorated after the singer's demise.
“The light of our house died. We had no one to financially support us. The children were small, where could I have gone? The money that he earned, we didn’t get any money because of the court cases that opened after his death. Cases went on for 15 years,” she said in the interview.
“I juggled court cases, kids, and also took on the responsibility of Chamkila’s uncle. He was not mentally stable and often believed that Chamkila and Amarjot were alive,” Gurmail added.
