Even in the weeks leading up to Chamkila’s assassination, there were massacres every other day. To airbrush all of this is sheer intellectual cowardice, if not a crime. And you know what, just as smug Bollywood filmmakers would like us to believe now that what Punjab — and the Sikhs — endured in 1988 was just some bad crime, Trudeau’s Canadians now see the Sikh diaspora gangs in their countries, who’ve all slipped through their immigration filters, though the same lens.

As a Canadian citizen today I am treathen by Israel foreign government to kill me. In Canada
I didn’t find this analysis by sir as correct. Because the movie was from chamkil’s perspective. He was not interested in politics, he wanted to sing and died. The film never conclusively says why he dies. All the encounters with seperatist people shiwn in the film is documented. However the film never ans why he was killed. The film focus was on freedom/desire to sing and success by a poor non priviledge person. Because you are go political person you think this way.
No community in India has got justice. We are banana republic
Imagine if these guys were muslims..
He conveniently ignored the killing of Hindus not only in Punjab but in Haryana also, when he tried to give eg all of them are either local Hindus or labourers from Bihar (mostly hindu).
Majority of Sikhs dies in police encounters, when they were attacking police and public with 47.
Glitters are precious in some form or the other. ✍️✍️✌️✌️🙏🙏
Sir you are walking library. Mass Respect !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The whole truth is of course bigger than the sum of its parts. Thank you for contributing with your first hand, on-ground knowledge.
Let us hope that serious unbiased research in the contemporary history of India is taken up while the likes of you are still around.
Till delhi ruling govt does not fulfill the promises done to punjab and sikhs since 1947…. Nothing is going to solve..by suppressing forcefully will only bring back the retaliation much stronger… u can keep tagging them terrorist, khalistani , separatist … it does not matter.
Shekharji forgets about Hindu killings by either Pakistanis or Khalistanis or Kashmir muslims
Isn’t your distillation of the film also damn simplistic and convenient to your narrative? Come on, the movie is not a thriller or a whodunnit. And btw, it blames everyone, not just 1 group of people or just because of 1 reason. Be more nuanced while criticising art!
कोई आश्चर्य नहीं कि पंजाब से संबंधित विषय होने के कारण शेखर जी इस पर गहराई से चर्चा करते हैं
This was an interesting episode, this situation with Canada and some parts of Bollywood is a classic example of since I was never effected by something so it never happened and is not happening & you know both Imtiaz and Canadian politicians especially Trudu (this is a deliberate mistake) & his party both will be called progressives.
Canada is importing India's mafia for voter base. Playing with fire.
Very well made video. End portion should be made into reels ..esp where mentioned the names of other singer/people who were killed nearby to Chamkila's death.
If Canada is a trouble infested country then what is india??
Truth served on a platter.

Shekhar what you have said during this podcast , you should say it major forums around the world. This information which was collected by journalist/reporters like you and others like you need to be discussed in larger forums
at 6:35 you state that the separatist movement "has the fullest political support" in Canada. Can you please elaborate? Freedom of speech does not equate to support. The same freedom of speech exists in the US and UK and a small group in these countries does speak up about their objectives. What is the basis for your statement that only Canada provides 'the fullest political support' for a separatist movement?
Hats off for creating this video. I would urge you to look at this video that was created by Canadian Broadcast Corporation CBC's wing called Fifth Estate. Its exactly portrayed the way you described sir. Media outlets are also peddling the same narrative. Its very sad,

Canadian whites are proud of how well they integrate brown people. They don’t understand there are good and bad brown people.
Trudeau trouble infested canada 🤣
Yet every indian wants to move to canada
Few more films exists but that may not be suit The Prints business model 😊
movie is about free speech n expression being shut down by different power entity. It avoids taking political stance to avoid drowning the actual message.
if you don't care about them they do t care about you
Excellent on your face analysis! Canada should learn their lesson for importing mafia for vote bank politics
Diljit Dosanjh himself is a sympathiser of Khalistanis. What would you expect from a film he is working in.
