Chandigarh/ Punjab (June 27, 2014): It’s seems as if it’s turning to be a trend in Punjabi cinema, after the success of “Sadda Haq”, to make movies on stories based on or related to 1984 Sikh massacre and state-oppression that followed the tragic events of 1984.
“Punjab 1984” is one such big-banner movie. The movie is said to be the story of a mother whose son was victimised by the state police and joins the “militancy”.
The events of 1980s-1990s had close political connections, but the writer-director of the Punjab 1984 movie, Anurag Singh, claims that his movie was “not political”.
