[angy15]

Whats wrong with SGPC??Isn't teachings of Guru Nanak more important than the controversy of his appearance in the movie?

sgpc is a committee, it is not Guru and is not the panth! 

It has too much power since colonialism.

Even calling it Shiromani is an insult.

sgpc is always confused. SGPC has been confused since it was created during Firanghi RAAJ!

Couple of points-

- SGPC approved this movie before, did through analysis provided recommendation which were followed  thoroughly has a approval from sgpc both old committee and new committee at current, signed by all scholars in SGPC

- If some people find it offended, don't watch it or ignore it but if you think by banning or doing protest, blocking hwy and other tactics is way to go, its counter-intuitive this will increase curiosity in people, its actually more advertisement of the movie,  remember - controversy sells!!

Just like if you strictly enforced everything is forbidden,  make things trivial or controversial for kids outlaws on kids, kids will revolt eventually in their life, will explore whatever is banned for sake of curiosity, rebel back whether watchin tv, fashion, cell phones. Look at the lives and scandals of amish life style, orthodox jews, church pastors

-Provide detailed analysis with strong rebuttal , why one shouldn't watch this movie and leave it up to the readers

- I do have a point i want to make. I watched movie- badla made on sant jarnail singh bhindranwale, there is a scene of sant jarnail singh bhindranwale coming on to maharaj darbar, they showed huge parkash aura on sant ji in maharaj darbar where aura parkash on sri guru granth sahib was virtually missing in contrast with sant ji parkash in same scene. Same people who endorsed badla movie have a problem with nanak shah fakir as well. 

This is good video from director of Nanak shah fakir, lots of great points, decide it for yourself:

Just like Listening and reading books are medium to understand lifes and teaching  of our Gurus.So is the  visual media. This shows how our Gurudwaras have failed miserably in promoting Sikhsim in 21st Century.We have to understand if we really want  to spread teachings of ouu Guru we have to use technology which are present today.

Spreading Message of our Guru is more important than rather creating issues on their physical appearances  and their family .

I am sure this movie will create curiosity among young children to know more abt our great religion.This 2 hrs will tell a lot abt Guru Nanak teaching than having to read number of books.
