Good on the Granthi who opposed the ban, much better than his sellout boses.

Ban on ‘Sadda Haq’ opposed

HT Correspondent, Hindustan Times

Sangrur, April 10, 2013

A local sikh organisation on Wednesday organised a peaceful protest outside the office of the deputy commissioner here against the ban on Punjabi film "Sadda Haq".

Demanding that the ban be over, the agitators raised slogans against the Punjab government before submitting a memorandum

to deputy commissioner Kumar Rahul. Harjinder Singh, head priest of Gurdwara Mastuana Sahib, said the state's history of police excesses and exploitation of young people at the hands of politicians could not be denied by banning the release of the film based on the times of militancy in the state.

"The government only shows what suits it and restricts films that project the issues related to Punjab," he said. “It's not the first time that a film based on true incidents has been made.” The state government had banned the movie on the ground that it glorified terrorists and their activities in Punjab.

The movie, which earlier received a green signal from the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), later was banned the night before its release on April 5

Badal and Makkar proved wrong, no problems occur when the film is shown in India, along with the Congress, PPP/Communists all have been shown instruments to keep Sikhs down. Have all the Sikh religious and political leaders taken up a vow of silence, usually they are calling people Naasticks and Blasphemers etc without hesitation but all is quite.

Two Haryana theatres continued to screen the controversial Punjabi film Sadda Haq for four consecutive days despite state government banning it.

Caught napping, the Haryana government swung into action late Tuesday and stopped the screening of the film at Harsha K3C and Movietime theatres in Karnal.

"On receiving the information, we checked the two cinema halls and found that the movie was being screened in violation of the government orders. They had been screening it since April 6. In fact, orders were sent to every movie theatre owner and manager to not screen the film on the evening of April 5. Though these two cinema halls did not screen the film on Friday, April 5, they started some shows next day onwards," Karnal Superintendent of Police Shashank Anand told The Indian Express.

The film was banned on April 5 in Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh and Delhi. Anand said the owners and managers of both the cinema halls will be booked for violating government orders. "Instructions have been issued to register criminal cases against the owners and managers. We are also examining if relevant sections pertaining to hurting religious sentiments can be added to the FIRs," he added.

Meanwhile, producer, writer and lead actor of the film, Kuljinder Singh Sidhu, said, "There was no written order of a ban." He said that Karnal cinema halls saw houseful shows and the collections and other data will be revealed by film trade analysts by Thursday.

All India distributor for the film, Jalandhar-based Munish Sahni said the film saw a peaceful screening in Karnal, Hamirpur in Himachal Pradesh, Indore in Madhya Pradesh and in Mumbai. "Audiences are flocking the cinema halls," Sahni said

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
