and who is doing all that? sikhs themselves.

recent movies;

jee ayan nu (Harbhajan Maan) asan nu maan watna da (Harbhajan Maan) pind di kuri (sarabjeet cheema) yaaran naal baharan (jimmy shergill, juhi babbar) mannat (jimmy shergil, kulraj randhava) Dil Apna Punjabi (Harbhajan Maan, Neeru Bajwa, etc) Rabb Ne Banaiya Jodiaan (Babbu Maan, etc) Waris Shah (Gurdaas Maan, Juhi Chawla, etc) Mannat (Jimmy Sheirgill, Kulraj, etc) Mehndi Wale Hath (New guys, one was seen in Manmohan Waris's vdo Punjabi Shera and the other one in Nachhatar Gill's Suit Patiala) Ek Jind Ek Jaan (Aryan Vaid, Nagma, etc)


all have sikhs in them. but name ONE movie that has sikh in lead...

in movie mannat turbaned sikhs were shown as "Bad guys" and clean shaven as a hero. in others,people with turbaned people like ghuggi shown as comedy characters
