Diljit Dosanjh’s ‘Panjab ’95’ Hits Another Roadblock; What’s the Deal with 120 Censor Cuts and Festival Snubs? | Bollywood Shenanigans

Hello, doston! Gather around because Khabree Kiran is back with some garma-garam khabrein straight from the Bollywood pot! This time, it’s all about the much-anticipated flick, Panjab ’95, that’s been tangled in some serious drama. So, grab your chai and let’s dive into this masaledar story!

Panjab ’95: A Rollercoaster of Delays

Ah, Bollywood, where the drama doesn’t just stay on screen! Diljit Dosanjh’s Panjab ’95 has hit yet another speed bump on its way to the theaters. This film, which tells the gripping story of activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, was all set for a grand release in February. But alas, the Bollywood gods had other plans! On Monday, Diljit took to Instagram to break the news that the release is postponed, and we’re all left wondering, "Ab kya hoga?" 🤔

Diljit shared a poignant message from Khalra himself: "I pray to the Guru, who identified with truth, to keep this light lit." Well, we’re all hoping the film’s light shines soon, too!

The Tale of Titles and Cuts

Now, let’s rewind a bit. Originally called Ghalughara, this film faced a whopping 120 cuts from the CBFC, which is enough to make any filmmaker go "Arre, kya yaar!" But after some serious intervention by the SGPC, the film got a new name, Panjab ’95. Talk about a filmi twist! The trailer made a grand entrance on YouTube only to disappear like a magic trick. 🪄

TIFF’s Vanishing Act

Jump to 2023, and Panjab ’95 was all set for its shining moment at the Toronto International Film Festival. But just like a classic Bollywood plot twist, it got axed from the lineup a day before its premiere! Rumors of ‘political forces’ at play are buzzing, leaving us all saying, "Ye kya ho raha hai?" 😲

The Story That Needs to Be Told

For those not in the know, Jaswant Singh Khalra was a brave human rights activist from Punjab, who exposed the chilling truth of fake encounters and mass cremations. His mysterious disappearance in 1995 and subsequent murder trials are a haunting chapter of Punjab’s history. The film aims to shed light on his courageous journey, but clearly, some feathers have been ruffled.

Kiran’s Gyan:

In Bollywood, the twists and turns are not just for the silver screen. Sometimes, the off-screen drama is equally entertaining! Remember, folks, patience is the key, and in the end, sachai ki jeet hoti hai! 💪 So, let’s sit tight and wait for Panjab ’95 to finally shine. After all, good things come to those who wait… and wait… and wait!
