Diljit Dosanjh's Punjabi film 'Satluj' has returned to the spotlight after reports said it will be screened at gurudwaras across five states. The move has turned a release dispute into a wider community-backed exhibition story.
The development follows reports that the film was taken down from OTT circulation during an ongoing row. That shift has pushed the conversation beyond digital access and into questions around how audiences will now be able to watch the film.
Reports indicate that religious venues are emerging as alternative screening spaces, giving the film a new route to viewers despite the uncertainty around its online availability. The planned screenings have also added a strong regional and cultural dimension to the controversy.
The episode has quickly become one of the most closely watched stories in Punjabi cinema, blending film politics, exhibition hurdles and audience mobilisation. Attention is now likely to remain on how widely the screenings are carried out and whether the dispute around the film eases.
