The release of Diljit Dosanjh's film 'Satluj' has been a tumultuous journey, marked by censorship battles and a delayed release. In an interview, Suvinder Vicky, a key cast member, reflects on the film's reception and the challenges faced during production. He describes Diljit as a dedicated artist, whose commitment to his character was evident on set. Despite the film's rocky release, it has garnered praise for its performances and storytelling. One of the most demanding scenes, according to Suvinder, was the interrogation sequence, where he had to throw pamphlets at a suspended Diljit, requiring precise timing. The actor's patience and professionalism, even in the face of challenges, impressed Suvinder. The 'saag scene', another demanding moment, required Suvinder to convey menace without resorting to physical aggression, a testament to the director's attention to detail. The film's journey to the screen has been a rollercoaster, with a delayed release and a sudden disappearance from streaming platforms. However, the audience's response has been heartening, with people organizing screenings and sharing the film, treating it as a form of service. Suvinder expresses his gratitude for the support and hopes that those who opposed the film will eventually appreciate its message. The film's troubled journey, spanning nearly four years, has made it a story of resilience and the power of art to overcome censorship and find an audience.
