Nanak Shah Fakir, the film, is named after Guru Nanak and on his life and teachings. Born in 1469 A.D., Guru Nanak traveled the world to spread the message of equality, peace and ‘Ik Onkar’ (There’s but One God) that has survived and risen above the flux of conflict and time, impacting millions of followers across the globe and given birth to ‘Sikhism’ as a way of life.
(‘Sikh’ signifies a disciple). Guru Nanak was referred to as ‘Shah’ by the Muslims and ‘Fakir’ by the Hindus, the highest honor in both religions and hence came to be known as ‘Nanak Shah Fakir’. Shot in 10 locations across India, the film follows the great Saint on an epic journey and presents glimpses of a personality who gave a unique perspective to human life. Guru Nanak was endowed with a universal spirit and profound aura of a mystic. He brought dignity to human courage and empathy. Co-produced by Samar Sikka and Resul Pookutty, Oscar winners A.R.
Rahman and Resul wove magic by way of mentoring and sound designing respectively. Hollywood composer Tuomas Kantelinen added a mesmerizing original score. Legendary Uttam Singh filled in with soul stirring music to Guru Nanak’s shabads that were sung by the renowned Padma awardee singers Pt. Jasraj, Bhai Nirmal Singh and others. Amrit Basra of Delhi University, a renowned researcher and historian at Bhai Veer Singh Sadan, scripted the film and bound it with facts and data.

The film’s strongest support yet came from Ajay Piramal. The cast includes Arif Zakaria, Adil Hussain, Shraddha Kaul, Puneet Sikka, Anurag Arora, Narendra Jha, Govind Pandey and many more. It is pertinent to mention here that keeping in line with the tradition, Guru Nanak has been portrayed through computer graphics only and that too from the back, amidst a ray of light. The extraordinary experiences during the production yet were overwhelming and deeply humbling. The film enjoys the full support of Sri Akal Takht Sahib.
