Baba Bakshish Singh has directed his criticism towards the recent film Akaal: The Unconquered, claiming it misrepresents Sikh traditions by showing characters engaged in behaviors like drinking and smoking, which contradict Sikh cultural and religious standards. Furthermore, Singh argues that the movie falls short in accurately depicting the Sikh identity, especially criticizing the lack of traditional hair, an essential aspect of their appearance.

Singh's discontent extends beyond mere character portrayal to the depiction of significant historical Sikh figures, Hari Singh Nalua and Jassa Singh Ahluwalia. He asserts that such revered personalities should be depicted with the highest level of respect and authenticity. Singh's stance is firm, as he demands, "if Gippy Grewal's film is based on Sikh warriors like Hari Singh Nalua or Jassa Singh Ahluwalia, then those playing them should be shown with full reverence and dignity." This statement underscores his demand for a dignified and accurate representation of Sikh history in the film industry
