'Truth will come out soon': Diljit Dosanjh promises as 'Panjab 95' faces delays and censor challenges

PTC Web Desk: Actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh's highly anticipated film 'Panjab 95' has encountered multiple delays. On January 23, Dosanjh shared a post on social media, hinting at the film's imminent release and stating that the truth will soon be revealed. The film, which delves into the sensitive subject of human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra's life, has faced significant hurdles. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) had suggested 120 cuts to the film due to its controversial content.

In his post, Dosanjh shared his look from the film and wrote, “Today or tomorrow, the truth will finally come out. No one can stop this truth from unfolding. I have faith that with divine blessings, a way will be found, and this story will be shared with the world.”

Originally scheduled for release on February 7, Panjab 95 has been delayed, with no new release date set yet. The film was also privately screened for the family of Jaswant Singh Khalra in 2022, and sources indicate that they were deeply moved and pleased with the portrayal of his story.

'Panjab 95' is expected to depict the tragic events surrounding Khalra's life, including his abduction, torture, and murder by police officers. Six officers were charged for their involvement in the crime, which remains a dark chapter in India's human rights history.
