The film, written by Kuljinder Sidhu, is on the Khalistan movement in India in the 1990s. Though yet to hit the screens in India, it has been released in Australia, Britain, the US and Canada.
In Surrey, the film is being screened at the Cineplex Odeon Strawberry Hills Cinemas and it is running to packed houses, the Vancouver Desi news site reported.
"It's been extremely well attended," the report quoted Cineplex spokesman Mike Langdon as saying.
"We've had a number of our evening shows sell out."
One of the viewers, Indira Prahst, chair of the sociology department at Langara College, described it as "very courageous film".
"This subject resonates very strongly with our diaspora Sikhs," she said.
Prahst felt that the movie captured real life stories and accurately depicted history without propaganda.
