Even many years after the scourge of the Sikhs (Mīr Mannū, had died on November 4, 1753) one could see an old, stooping woman walk through the streets and alleys of Lāhaur. She had snow-white hair and a haggard face, and her gaze always seemed to be turned inward as if she was looking for something inside herself.

A visually stunning documentary-drama telling the forgotten history of the Sikh persecution of 1716-1748 which engages our respective fellow western communities.

MARTYRS is the first international film on Sikh history. Screenings are happening now at various Gurdwaras in New York City and it has been very well received by audiences.

"Martyrs" is the second documentary created by Jagmeet Singh Samundri, after his awarding winning documentary called ‘Rise of The Khalsa’. Martyrs, the movie, is going to open doors to a new way of Cinema in India.

This is the first film of its kind. It is a 43-minute long documentary on the Rise of Khalsa. The purpose of this documentary is to inform and educate a wider range of audience using high quality film making techniques. This kind of media, these days, is the best to reach the general public.
