The movie is based on the life of a gursikh professor who comes to INDIA with lots of aspirations and feelings for his heritage and culture, as he had to leave the country during 1984. But as soon as he enters the city he comes across a very different environment and culture among sikh youth. Also few incidents occured which left him in shock and made him to find out what that reason was which shook the roots of sikhi in mere 20-25 years and which took more than 500 years for our Guru Sahibaan and Gursikhs to nurture.
"Proud to be a sikh" is about the journey of that gursikh professor in making sikh youngsters aware and feel proud for their identity and rich heritage , the difficulties he faced during this journey, and how he emerges victorious in the end.
"Proud to be a sikh" is about clarifying the society the true image of a sikh and not the one which they have projected in their minds based on false media propaganda and other misunderstandings.
"Proud to be a sikh" is about the lifestyle of a true khalsa in which he displays both the qualities of being a saint and sipahi in required conditions.

Sword-carrying Sikhs roaming the Indian city of Amritsar are a normal sight; but white people wearing turbans definitely are not. The strangeness lies in the fact that they are non-Indians who converted to Sikhism.
