The much-anticipated sequel to the 2012 film Yaariyan has already generated a lot of buzz. Divya Khosla Kumar, Meezaan Jafri, and Pearl V Puri star in the film. Just one day after the release of the new song “Saure Ghar,” the film became embroiled in a controversy.

The song “Saure Ghar” has been criticized for its depiction of a Sikh man wearing a kirpan, a religious symbol that is sacred to Sikhs. The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), the highest religious body of Sikhs, has demanded that the song be removed from the film. The SGPC has also threatened to take legal action against the makers of the film if the song is not removed.

The makers of the film have defended the song, saying that it is not meant to offend anyone. They have also said that they have consulted with Sikh scholars before using the kirpan in the song.

The controversy surrounding “Saure Ghar” has cast a shadow over the release of Yaariyan 2. It remains to be seen whether the film will be able to overcome the controversy and be a success at the box office.

The SGPC has expressed its anger on micro-blogging site, X, and has also filed a police complaint against the makers of the film. The police complaint has been filed at the Amritsar Police Station.
