Sikh committee objects the use of ‘Kaur’ in Sunny Leone’s biopic

President of the Istri Akali Dal, Bibi Jagir Kaur said, “She is using the word Kaur for making her biopic a success, unaware of the fact that the same could hurt religious sentiments."

Just two days before the release of Sunny Leone’s web series ‘Karenjit Kaur’, Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) and Sikh women leadership have raised objection to use the word, ‘Kaur’ in the series.

Talking about it Diljit Singh Bedi, SGPC’s additional secretary and spokesperson said, “Kaur is a very respectable name given by Sikh gurus to Sikh women. A person who didn’t follow the teachings of Sikh gurus shouldn’t use the word Kaur as this could hurt Sikh religious feelings. Sikhs will not allow her to use it. She should tender a public apology.”

President of the Istri Akali Dal, Bibi Jagir Kaur said, “She is using the word Kaur for making her biopic a success, unaware of the fact that the same could hurt religious sentiments."

A few days back, trailer of ‘Karenjit Kaur’ was released online. The trailer shows the journey of Karenjit Kaur (Sunny Leone) as she goes from being an ordinary teenager from a Sikh family in Canada to becoming an adult star and her eventual rise in Bollywood.

Well, now we wonder if the makers will drop 'Kaur' from the series or fight it out with the committee.

Never miss a chance to be amazed by the glitz and the glamour of the Entertainment industry.
