If we thought that 1984 was a dark chapter for Punjab, Diljit Dosanjh’s Satluj revisits another painful period. Especially the one marked with thousands of extrajudicial killings. The film is based on the life of human rights activist, Jaswant Singh Khalra. But the sensitive subject forced the film to spend nearly three years fighting for a release. Just when the audience finally got a chance to watch it, the film disappeared from Zee5 within 48 hours. Needless to say, it left the fans shocked. Meanwhile, the streaming platform has now addressed the sudden removal and shared an update on whether the film could return.
Zee5 admits the return of Satluj is uncertain
Satluj premiered on Zee5 on July 3, 2026, after years of delays. But, within a few hours on July 5, 2026 the film was no longer available to stream in India. The sudden move came despite the film winning immense praise from critics. In turn, fans who had just started learning about the movie were left confused when it disappeared from the platform without prior notice.
