I respect Harmeet Singh’s (Sherdil) concerns on how well we can portray our Guru Sahibs in animation and for that reason this movie begins from Sirsa river after Parivaar Vichora which meant no animation for Dasmesh Pita.
I am overwhelmed with the kind of support I see from fellow gursikhs even though many of them have not watched our movie.
Veerji Sherdil I do resent when you nitpick from our website to strengthen your arguments. You quoted “This movie has the potential to arouse interest of business houses to produce similar movies for profit” to prove that we have profit/ commercialization as our motive. Although this statement itself doesn’t imply our profit motives still I would like to put forth another statement from the same web site
In contrast to what you say none of the Gurudwara we approached refused us permission. Yes at certain places we did a preview show for committee members to clear their doubts. This includes Gurudwara Sahibs at Fremont, Bakersfield and Malton.
DVD price is also mentioned on the web site, US$15.00
From your latest post I notice you are more concerned on animation of Guru Sahibs. Please be assured this movie doesn’t have animation of Guru Sahib and we don’t intend to touch this sensitive topic. As many others on this discussion forum we believe animation is the need of the hour. We have developed the expertise would be honored to do more and more similar animated movies for our kids.
