Gursharan meets with and gets engaged to the Station House Officer's only daughter, Jassi Sandhu.

This movie was good it focused around the times when Indra Gandhi was assassinated and the riots and discrimination that took place between Hindus and Sikhs.
I just have a few negative things to say about it tho first of all they needed to get there facts straight. I wont name what because I want to see if you guys can find them. But here is a obvious one. The story takes place in 1986 and when Gurdas Mann comes to USA seeking Political freedom they have brand new houses probably made 2-3 years back, they have new cars probably between the years 2003-2005.
But besides that it is a good movie. I recommend seeing Hawyen it is also based around those times. But i warn you Hawyen is sort of gory
