After the controversy over the Punjabi film Akaal in some cities in Punjab, the first reaction of the film's director and actor, Gippy Grewal, has come out. By posting a 10-minute video on his social media account, he has made it clear that nothing wrong has been shown in the film. The aim of the film was not to hurt people's sentiments.
All necessary guidelines have been followed in the film. He has urged everyone to watch the film first so that if there are any shortcomings, they can be rectified. According to him, there is nothing objectionable in the film, and it is the best film of his life so far.
Gippy raised many important points in his video
Gippy Grewal said that the film 'Akaal' has been released all over the world. Some controversies have started in India, especially Punjab, as soon as the film was released. There was no clarification from his side on this matter till now, as he had gone to Canada to promote the film soon after its release. This video has been made based on what he has understood so far.
SGPC's guidelines followed in the film
Grewal said that when we make a film, we never have the feeling of hurting anyone's sentiments. If the film is being made for the Sikh brotherhood, and they have an objection to it, then why would we make such a film? We neither want applause nor money; If the film creates controversy, then everything will be in vain.
Before making the film, he took information about all the guidelines of SGPC and followed them completely. He said that everyone who saw the film after its release gave positive feedback, with no one saying that the film was wrong or misleading.
