Ignorance is a Bliss! Uneducated Comments by Sajid Khan on a Commendable Gatka Performance at India's Got Talent Spark Controversy: The exit of a seven-year-old participant from the “India’s Got Talent” reality show after judge Sajid Khan commented that the martial arts dance form he performed was too violent has angered Sikh groups in Punjab.
‘Gatka’ (a traditional martial arts dance form of the Nihang sect of the Sikh religion) bodies are objecting to the ouster of Manpreet Singh of Tarn Taran from the reality show that runs on Colors TV and debarred him from demonstrating the routine.
Sajid Khan had commented, after Manpreet’s performance, that the ‘Gatka’ performed during the show was too violent. The Gatka Federation of India (GFI) and Punjab Gatka Association (PGA), recognized by the Punjab Olympic Association, have urged the Akal Takht head (Jathedar) Gurbachan Singh to take strict action against the television channel.
