This was the first film in the "MSG" series by the religious leader Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh. He was involved in almost every aspect of film-making in it.[1][2][3]
The film was surrounded by various controversies. Sikh groups demanded a ban on it. They believed that it challenged the Sikh community and might cause societal unrest. There were reports that the Censor Board had blocked the film's certification since it depicted Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh as a god. When the film was eventually released with a 'U' certificate, critics panned it and characterised it as propaganda.[4][5]
