Punjabi singer Gurnam Bhullar, 40 others booked for violating Covid norms

PATIALA: The police have registered a case against singer Gurnam Bhullar and over 40 others for doing a video shoot in Patiala without prior permission, in violation of the Covid-19 protocols.
Giving details of the case, Patiala SSP Mandeep Singh Sidhu said the police acted based on a tip-off regarding the video shoot at a cinema hall in Rajpura. They had come to know that singer Gurnam Bhullar, along with video director Khushpal Singh and around 40 others, was shooting for a song at Prime Mall in violation of the Covid-19 guidelines, without obtaining permission for the same.
Led by Sadar Rajpura station house officer, a police team conducted a raid at Prime Cinema and found the shoot in progress there. The accused could not show any permission and most of them were also not following any guidelines issued by the government in view of the pandemic outbreak.
“The police apprehended them and took their shooting stuff also in custody,” SSP Sidhu added.
