The Akal Takht has imposed a ban on the filming of Anand Karaj for movies and TV serials.
Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Raghbir has made a strong comment on the matter of conducting fake marriages in Hindi TV serials as per the rituals of Sikhism. Raghbir Singh has said that he has already told the TV serials and filmmakers that conducting fake marriages in front of Guru Granth Sahib is prohibited.
Despite this, a similar case came to light in village Ghaduya near Mohali two days ago, in which a fake Gurudwara was built and fake Anand Karaj was being conducted.
