Nanak Shah Fakir: Ban disappoints Chandigarh moviegoers

After a ban in Punjab, the screening of the controversial film, Nanak Shah Fakir, was also banned in Chandigarh, hours before its release on Friday.

The reason behind the decision is being seen as the objections raised by some members of the local gurdwara parbandhak committee, saying that depiction of a Sikh guru was against the tenets of the religion.

Consequently, there were last-minute cancellations, leading to chaos among the prospective viewers, who had booked tickets in advance either online or from the multiplex ticket counters.
