The anticipation surrounding the film's world premiere at TIFF 2023 is palpable, as audiences eagerly await the opportunity to witness this compelling tale on the big screen. The Toronto International Film Festival is renowned for showcasing outstanding works of cinema, and Punjab 95 is set to make its mark among global cinephiles. The film is stuck at CBFC and is currently under the proceedings at Bombay High Court.

In the thick of a troubled and hostile decade in Amritsar, in the early 1990s in Punjab, our protagonist Jaswant Singh Khalra, a bank employee and human rights activist lives with his wife - a librarian, and their two little kids. Inclined to stay detached from the hostility that surrounds them, he wanted nothing more than a regular, middle-class existence when his hopes of living such a life are thrown into turmoil when he learns of the disappearance of his late friend’s mother, Bibi Gurpej. And so begins his journey to find his old aunt, and he soon realises that the deeper he digs in his search, the murkier and more dangerous the situation becomes, for him as well as his family.

Helmed by Honey Trehan, Punjab '95 is produced by Ronnie Screwvala in association with MacGuffin Pictures. ALSO READ: Arjun Rampal and Diljit Dosanjh’s film Ghallughara secures A certification despite 21 cuts from CBFC
