Good idea lost in the noise
Good concept, poorly executed.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

View MoreThis is a movie that is built on the emotions of Sikhs and if you don't support this movie, you are declared anti-Sikh or pro-Indian Government. But trust me, there is absolutely zero content in this movie. While the story of protagonist inspired from Jagtar Singh Hawara is shown inaccurately with the worst of acting and direction, the movie has a sub-plot entirely ripped off from the Konkana Sen starer movie 'Amu'. I won't go into any details of how pathetic this movie is in terms of story-line, acting and direction; trust me and save your time by not watching it. Also, the movie 'Amu' from where half the movie is copied, is a great watch and revolves around Anti-Sikh riots of Delhi. It's available on YouTube, go for it.
View MoreAfter all the hype created by Sadda haq,i had a lot of expectations from this movie. It was not as interesting as i had anticipated.The story is fine.Telling us About the contribution of Jagtar singh Hawara In the Struggle of Armed Sikhs against Anti Sikh Policies of the government. The movie in its story tells us that how the cops in that era,just for the sake of their promotions Killed innocent people,It also shows us the dark side of Some Sikhs who used the situation for their personal benefits in the name of Sikh struggle. Acting was Fine but the direction could have been better. The movie is above average.if you got the time.than just go ahead and watch it.
View MoreThis is an excellent movie which shows real story of Punjab and 1984 Sikh struggle. It sheds light on the circumstances(like mass human right abuses in India) which led Punjabis to take up arms against the system.A well directed storyline exposes the reality of Indian Police and their barbaric means which were used to kill youth mercilessly. The movie will also serve well as a medium to educate everyone about the problems faced by Sikhs in post-independent India.A marvelous effort and this movie can also be treated as a golden chapter in Punjabi cinema. Hopefully other Punjabi and Indian movie makers will get encouraged with this and make more movies based on reality.
View MoreExcellent film. Well directed and accurate depiction of the human rights abuse of Sikhs in India. The characters have depth and the portrayal of events are typical of those reported in the archives. The film employs many cinematic techniques to ensure that the drama does not let up too quickly.Violence for violence itself is never good, however the action sequences in the film were well justified anticomplement the plot very well. The main hero is seen to take a beating and not just jumping all over the other protagonists. All in all a great watch and would definitely recommend going to see it to anyone who enjoys good quality cinema with a dose of realism that makes the movie only more enjoyable to watch..
