the reason that sardarji jokes (its generally not punjabi humour just
sardarji humour) is seen everywhere is because the sardarji community
was always considered a light-hearted sportive community. infact their
jokes became so famous because they were a community who could carry
their jokes better than others could....(yes sardarjis are known for
making the best sardarji jokes)....😊
now when it comes to showing sardarjis as stupid in movies, i would say
a better word to use would be hilarious. they might show them ignorant,
but always they emerge as good hearted hero's friends in the end....😊

and why is it that all movies in bollywood are punjabi based when
punjab is only one of the many states in india...all surnames and
families are mehras & chopras (only the rajshris used to make
movies on the UP clans). all families punjabis, all songs balle
balle/mahi ve (even in movies e.g. kaante that had nothing to do with
punjabis), all festivals punjabis.............. its only after the
recent devdas that people are even reflecting on the bengali people...i
dont even know when they will start considering other states. i still
think that sardarjis have a considerable role to play in hindi
movies....

what about marwaris? does bollywood even know the difference between
keralites, kannadikas, tamilians and andhrites? all they about south
India is madrasi and a ridiculous looking man with dhoti and ash on his
forehead, idlis and dosas......rajnikanth, chiranjeevi &
kamalhassan were not even encouraged to keep foot into the bollywood
industry. You say this forum is clean? In this forum i have seen many a
member insult south Indians....😭

why, maharashtra is the cradle of bollywood, but the only marathi stuff
they manage to show is ladies still sporting the fisherman style 9 yard
outfit and screaming "kaay zaala or bhankaas".......gujaratis, parsis
none of them are spared when it comes to movies....😭

all i am trying to say is that it is not only sardarjis that are made
fun of but all other states as well.... atleast punjabis and sardarjis
play a role in bollywood...compared to them the rest of the states are
peanuts...

all i am saying is that please think before making accusations😭

I'm Sikh too & more than proud to b one. Sikhs ROCK aiite. They r NOt stupid but one of the most talented, strong, & beautiful people. Be friends with them, they'll DIE for you. They r gems.
We gotta show ppl how to respect other religions. Right to speak duzn't mean right to INSULT. Gd diz topis was brought up.
