WHGJKK WHGJKF, I,m soooo sorry if I offend anyone, but why are you all so bothered about it? who cares what movies makers think? if they are small minded and follow stupid sterotypical veiws, then it just shows that they dont know how to research what they dont know. Anyway Bollywood and Hollywood alike can be very sappy and bugets are low, therefore mistakes happen and so dose pure arrogance. Nobody bothers to complain when big movies stars sleep with directors just to get a part. So why not concentrate on the situations that are real like for example, the caste system which shouldnt exist, arranged marriage which also shouldnt exist, raceism, sexism, childabuse, drugabuse, war, pain. why dont we all get together and do something about the real problems that our scorched world faces. I apologise again if i cause offence, but somethings need to said.

Sat SIri Akaal. I agree with you. There is so much out there that is serious and needs addressing! Sadly, movies are how a lot of people get their 'information' and movies that portray people as stereotypes or in very narrow and untrue images foster the very thing(s) we are trying to avoid. Sadly also, the worst movies in this regard also are financial blockbusters. What does that tell you!??
The best thing to do is to boycott (not view) such movies. And to set an example by your own life and life choices. Live like a saint and act like a soldier. Live as Sikh and by your example show those around you who and what Sikhs really are.
