Author's note

Punjabi Amritsar SSK by Southern Software is a free Gurmukhi display font with broad, dark strokes and a strongly calligraphic profile. The letters combine squared verticals and long horizontal bars with rounded lower curves, tapered joins, and occasional sweeping flourishes.

Festival posters are a convincing setting for this lettering, since its sturdy silhouette and lively stroke changes echo hand-painted Punjabi signs. It also suits cultural event graphics, restaurant branding, and regional music packaging aimed at audiences seeking a traditional Punjabi reference with assertive display weight.
