Dear Friend,
We would like to invite you to The Dalip Singh Saund Film fundraiser and we need your support in this very important film on the life of Congressman Saund. Sach Productions is undertaking this project along with actor Omi Vaidya. Dalip Singh’s life is a shining example of an immigrants success story that happened in the mid-1950s when he became the first South Asian Congressman in the House of Representatives. To win an election is not an easy task now and it certainly wasn’t easy then, at a time when racism was rampant and opportunities for Asians were limited as the nation was reeling from the trauma of the second world war. But Dalip Singh won that election and you will help us tell his story!
Come Join us on Saturday, July 11th at 6pm for Dinner followed by a wonderful concert in Hindustani Classical, Punjabi Folk and Qawwali by world renowned musicians, U. Surjeet Singh, Rupi Bedi & Debu Nayak. Our special guest will be Bollywood Actor & celebrity, Omi Vaidya, who will introduce this amazing film project and Director Harpreet Kaur will be present to discuss the role of Sach Productions and how you can help make this film a reality so Congressman Saund’s life can continue to inspire our next generation. Sach Productions has made award winning films such as The Widow Colony & A Little Revolution, that have been shown at international film festivals, Smithsonian Museum, The UK & Canadian Parliament and recently at the US Congress.
Please share this information with your friends and do not miss this opportunity for a very memorable evening.
