Karenjit Kaur: Sikh committee objects to use of ‘Kaur’ in Sunny Leone’s web series title!

 Sunny Leone’s web series – Karenjit Kaur: The Untold Story which is based on the life of the actress has been in trouble as Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) having issues with “Kaur” in the title.


 It has been reported that the Committee has objected on using “Kaur” in the title because that might hurt Sikh sentiments.

Diljit Singh Bedi, SGPC’s additional secretary and spokesperson, had told Times of India that the usage would hurt Sikh sentiments as Sunny did not follow the teachings of the Sikh Gurus. Hence, she had no right to use the title “Kaur”.

“Kaur is a very respectable and exalted name given by Sikh gurus to Sikh women. A person who didn’t follow the teachings of Sikh gurus shouldn’t use the word Kaur as this could hurt Sikh religious feelings. Sikhs will not allow her to use it. She should tender a public apology,” Bedi said.
