Amritsar, Nov. 18 -- The Akal Takht secretariat issued a letter instructing the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) to ensure that the animation film 'Hind Di Chadar', which was scheduled to hit the screens on November 21, is not released, said an official spokesperson on Monday. Acting jathedar Giani Kuldeep Singh Gargaj's directive also included contacting government and relevant authorities to prevent the film's release. This comes amid objections raised by various Sikh groups. The film, which was created by Baweja Movie Pvt. Ltd., is based on the life of Guru Teg Bahadur. However, after a thorough review, the film review committee submitted its report to Akal Takht, leading to the prohibition order by the jathedar.

He called upon the filmmakers to respect Sikh sentiments and refrain from releasing it, citing that the animation format used for depicting the Sikh Gurus goes against established Sikh traditions....
