So I thought to myself, I wonder if we can apply a cooking show to Sikhi. What are the ingredients that make us a Sikh. I’m sure that would give the judges a run for their rotis! </span></span></p>
<p>People say that the kitchen is the heart of the home, and Sikhism is the heart of a person. So does that mean Sikhi can be found in the kitchen? Well, let’s find out! <br />   This film is dedicated to the hearts of the homes of the Sikhs of the world.</p>

Each Sikh has to educate 300 people for our world to know who we are. By educating others, we hope to create an environment that accepts our religion and culture. We went to many locations in the metro-Detroit area (our home town) to interview people at the Zoo, Taco Bell, Museums and many more. Along the way we came to learn a lot both about ourselves as well as have a few laughs. We hope you guys enjoy!</span></span></p>

In his mind he goes through scenarios of different ways he could react to the person. The first is to get angry, the second is to try to not look like a Sikh and fit in. In the third scenario he becomes neutral and teaches the man about what it means to be a Sikh.</p>
<p>This short film is done in a comedic fashion, but it also has a moral: As Sikhs we must compassionately educate others about us to end discrimination instead of getting angry or dejected. </p>
