Chandigarh/ Punjab (June 27, 2014): It’s seems as if it’s turning to be a trend in Punjabi cinema, after the success of “Sadda Haq”, to make movies on stories based on or related to 1984 Sikh massacre and state-oppression that followed the tragic events of 1984.
“Punjab 1984” is one such big-banner movie. The movie is said to be the story of a mother whose son was victimised by the state police and joins the “militancy”.
The events of 1980s-1990s had close political connections, but the writer-director of the Punjab 1984 movie, Anurag Singh, claims that his movie was “not political”.
Daljit Dosajh starter “Punjab 1984” is going to be released globally today.
According to information shared by Daljit Dosanjh over his Facebook fans page this movie shall be screened in more than 56 cinemas (Multiplexes and Single Screen) across India excluding Punjab and adjoining states, including 16 Cinemas/ Theatres in Delhi, 3 in Noide, 5 in Ghaziabad, 2 in Greater Noida, 2 in Lucknow, 3 in Dehradun.
