Punjab 95 Release: Punjabi actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh is currently in the news for his film 'Punjab 95'.

The teaser of the film has been released

The teaser of 'Punjab 95' begins with Arjun Rampal's character saying, "Look at the history of Punjab, sir. Whether it is the dispute over rivers or Operation Bluestar, Indira Gandhi's assassination or the 1984 riots, from President's rule to the assassination of the Chief Minister and now... why is Punjab suffering?" The teaser shows Diljit Dosanjh, who plays the role of Sikh rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra and is investigating the disappearance of Sukhdev Singh.

The film is based on the life of Jaswant Singh Khalra, who exposed 25,000 unlawful killings, disappearances, and secret cremations by the Punjab police.
