Everyone must have heard the devotional song Ucha Dar Babe Nanak Da, as many Punjabi singers have lent their voice to it from time to time. There has also been a film by the same name, starring Gurdas Maan, Kulbhushan Kharbanda and Preeti Sapru. Now, a fresh story with the same title has been presented by director Tarnvir Singh Jagpal.

Releasing on July 12, Ucha Dar Babe Nanak Da stars Yograj Singh, Isha Rikhi, Naginder Gakhal and Harby Sangha. During a press conference in Mohali on Tuesday, the film’s message was conveyed — ‘God is the only one who gives solace, even after sufferings’.

Veteran actor Yograj Singh, who plays a pivotal role in the film, expressed his excitement, “Ucha Dar Babe Nanak Da is not just a film; it is a spiritual voyage. The story resonates with the teachings and essence of Guru Nanak Dev ji, and it was an honour to be a part of such a profound project. I believe this film will touch hearts and inspire many.”

Harby Sangha informed how he enjoyed the film’s schedule that was shot around the director’s own village, Jagpalpur. He shared, “I have also sung the title song. It’s a unique film and a very different subject. We have used simple language and shown day-to-day happening in the lives of villagers.”

About the recent changes in Yograj’s get-up, as he is often seen wearing blue and yellow-coloured turban with parn hanging till his shoulders, he shared, “I believe that humans make a lot of mistakes and now that I have reached my seventies, I have realised how I have always been away from God. So, I choose this bhesh of Baba Deep Singh to connect with him. I choose yellow and blue because for me it means beauty, peace and love.”

Harby, reflecting on his long acting journey, recalled how he had entered the industry because he always wanted to be close to Gurpreet Ghuggi — his inspiration. “As I got to spend time and learn from him, I didn’t even realise how far I had come. I appreciate everything that I got and take each project as the first one.” Sangha will soon be making his presence felt on a digital platform in a romantic comedy.
