涉及印度旁遮普邦 20 世纪 80 至 90 年代分离主义运动及人权侵犯历史的电影《Satluj》，因被要求删改超过 120 处内容而遭到印度审查机构的干预，随后从流媒体平台 ZEE5 上线仅两天即被移除 [1]。尽管官方未公开具体原因，但当地锡克教组织和居民通过组织露天社区放映的方式绕过禁令，在村庄和寺庙中集体观看该片，引发了关于艺术自由与政府审查的广泛讨论 [1]。
该影片原名《Punjab 95》，其背景设定于旁遮普邦曾发生寻求独立的 Khalistan 锡克教分离主义运动时期 [1]。电影中的情节涉及了包括人权活动家 Jaswant Singh Khalra 在内的真实历史事件，他曾因调查法外处决而于 1995 年被绑架杀害 [1]。面对审查压力，Gurdaspur 地区的居民在志愿者协调下组织了这些非正式的放映活动 [1]。
The film Satluj, originally titled Punjab 95 [1], depicts the Sikh separatist movement and human rights violations in Punjab, India, between the 1980s and early 1990s [1]. Following its release on the ZEE5 streaming platform within two days, Indian censorship authorities ordered more than 120 edits to be made before removing it from service domestically [1]. Although official reasons for the ban were not publicly disclosed by regulators [1], local Sikh organizations and residents in Gurdaspur organized volunteer-led outdoor community screenings as a workaround [1]. These events allowed villagers and temple-goers to collectively watch the film, sparking widespread debate on artistic freedom versus government censorship [1]. The narrative addresses historical grievances including the 1995 kidnapping and murder of human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra while he investigated extrajudicial killings [1]. This context relates to a broader insurgency in Punjab where groups sought an independent state known as Khalistan [1].
