Amritsar/Ludhiana, Punjab (November 11, 2012): According to certain media reports Shiromani Gurudwara Prabhandak Committee (SGPC) has granted a verbal clean chit to upcoming Bollywood film “Son of Sardar”.
The upcoming Hindi film, which is home production of actor-cum-producer Ajay Devgn had triggered a controversy as various Sikh personalities and organizations had found that certain scenes and dialogues were objectionable.
A Chandigarh based human rights lawyer Advocate Navkiran Singh had raised objections maintaining that the films could depict Sikhs in bad light. Similar apprehensions were raised by All India Sikh Students Federation (Peermohammad).
A promo of movie that was released on YouTube by Ajay Devgn was found to be containing objectionable contents. A criminal complaint based on the content of the promo is still pending at a court in Punjab and Ajay Devgn could be summoned in this matter.
