A Quote by Binnu Dhillon

Jaspal Bhatti saab was the one who uplifted the image of Sikhs on the national and international stage. There used to be a lot of satire on Sikhs earlier. A guy wearing a turban was portrayed as a joke, but since Bhatti saab entered cinema he changed the entire perspective and idiom of Sardar jokes.

The turban is an inextricable part of the Sikh identity. Sikhs say you may take off their head but not the turban.

Preneet Kaur

Americans need to embrace Sikhs more and Sikhs need to take the initiative to educate people about their religion.

The entire industry is a great commune. People from all walks of life come here - Hindu, Muslims, Sikhs and Christians. Now, our films are also getting international recognition.

Sikh is a 500 year old community and they have been living in U.S. for the past 114 years. Yet the Sikhs were mistaken to be Arabs in the post 9/11 scenario and beaten up. Doesn't this sound bizarre? I mean Sikhs and Arabs are as different as chalk and cheese.

Puneet Issar

'I Am Singh' is about Sikhs, who, despite living in the U.S. for generations, were mistaken for Arabs and Afghans due to their turbans and became victims of racist violence in the aftermath of 9/11. The film takes a look at the discrimination against Sikhs post 9/11.

Puneet Issar

Sikhs were considered the champions of fairness, uplifting people, protecting and defending human rights. Defending equality. So when someone sees a Sikh, the turban identifies a person who's going to stand up for rights, even if you disagree with them. The turban is supposed to be a beacon. That someone who is going to help you out.

Saab never asked me to give up my career. In fact, he encouraged me to continue acting after marriage. But, after a while, my heart was not in my career. I just wanted to take care of Saab.

Saira Banu

No one writes for me exclusively, nor do lead roles come by that easily. 'Dulla Bhatti' was one, but I was so disappointed with the film.

I never minded stories of the beautiful women associated with Dilip saab. I had placed my entire trust in him.

Saira Banu

I feel like I've changed a lot since the London Games. I was really young, and it was my first year on the international stage. I've matured physically since then, and I've become stronger, and because of that, I've gained a lot of confidence.

Derek Drouin

We don't have a lot of Sikhs in France. We've got some. But we don't really hear much from them or about them. Which is good news.

Marine Le Pen

The Saab seethed off into the night. Arthur watched it go, as stunned as a man might be who, having believed himself to be totally blind for five years, suddenly discovers that he had merely been wearing too large a hat.

Douglas Adams

And my Saab is so great I'm gonna marry it.

Tori Amos

I respect Dev saab greatly.

Zeenat Aman

Ghulam Ali Khan saab is my greatest inspiration.

Javed Ali

I don't think I've ever died on stage. I've had jokes that died on stage. I've told a joke and absolutely nothing. They didn't know it was the end of the joke.
