The film was very slow and boring. I found the the CGI Back or White contour (sometime silhouette) image of Guru Nanak Dev ji very distracting. Even a child watching next to me kept pointing that out. In fact, not showing the image of Guru Nanak ji is a misinterpretation of His teachings in early 1900s done most likely deliberately by the Sikh sect Tat Khalsa which ran on an anti Hindu ideology to create a unique identity of Sikhs, separate from Hindus despite the fact Guru Nanak ji was a born Hindu. This sect even violently destroyed non Sikh symbols, objects etc from Sikh temples in early 1900s.
Script was bad. Editing was bad. Screenplay was strange because perhaps having to Not show Guru ji's image. Camera placement or the viewing angles came out to be weird for the same reason. As screenplay was bad too, actors looked under-utilised. The two or three lead female actors in the film were literally hamming. Classical music was good but the background score was way to modern.
I loved the great efforts being put to bring the basic teaching of Guru Nanak.
Wish it could be more grand than this to be presented on large scale.
Less emphasis on historical detailings and cinematography.
Hope people will dive deep into teachings of Guru Nanak and sikhism after seeing this.

Brilliantly put together despite the forced editing. Much needed and respect to the people who put this together. More of this please.
I do not leave reviews that much unless, movie touches my heart.
I think director of this movie should get Oscar for this movie. Some people in Punjab & the world, they have battles in their own mind and try to fight with mind. Kuch to log kahenge logo ka kaam hain kehna.
I think everyone in world should watch this movie. Every time, they will watch this, they will learn something new.
Lots of blessings. Calgary, Canada.
