NEW DELHI: There’s a “sudden race” to make Punjabi films to exploit Sikh sentiments on issues like Operation Bluestar and 1984 riots, with four such films produced by persons based in Canada and Australia to be released in the coming months, the Intelligence Bureau (IB) has warned. IB has particularly red-flagged a Punjabi movie, ‘Jinda and Sukha’, up for likely release on June 5, based on the lives of Harjinder Singh Jinda and Sukhdev Singh Sukha who killed Gen (retd) AS Vaidya in 1986 after he led Operation Blue Star.IB says this movie is produced by an Australia-based proprietor of ‘Singh Brothers Production” and ‘Braveheart Productions’ of Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. It says some shots of this movie were taken during the observance of the death anniversary of Jinda and Sukha on October 9 last year at Amritsar . In a note sent to the home ministry, IB has said such films portray erstwhile militants as “saviours of the Sikh community” and has pointed out that two films on similar topics were made in 2013 and 2014 too, with the latter movie ‘Kaum De Heere’, made on the life of Indira Gandhi’s assassins, not being cleared by the Censor Board IB says another movie expected to be released this month is ‘The Blood Street — produced by a Canada-based Jasbir Singh Boparai who has claimed that his aim is to make the younger generation aware of the “past struggle”.This movie depicts how Sikh families were victims of alleged police atrocities during the post 1984 period in Punjab and attempts to justify Sikh youths of that time taking up arms, IB says, pointing out that the movie has received clearance from Censor Board on March 27 after several cuts.IB has also said Baljit Singh Daduwal, president of radical Sikh organization Panthic Seva Langar, has acted in it. Two more movies --‘Patta Patta Singhan Da Vairi’ and ‘Insaaf Di Udeek - Delhi 1984 -- are also in the pipeline which are based on the alleged high-handedness of the police during the militancy days and the 1984 riots in Delhi respectively, IB has warned.
