Dr Diwan Singh Kalepani Museum near Chandigarh is a tribute to this freedom fighter, who was tortured to death in Cellular Jail of Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
The book Kalapani by Jagtar Singh records unsung sacrifices of many Punjabis including Ghadari Baabe and Babbar Akalis.
Diwan Todar Mal - an unsung hero of Sikh history - embodied courage, faith, and compassion.
After the martyrdom of Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s young sons in Sirhind, fear ruled the land. Yet, this noble soul dared to step forward when no one else would.
To cremate their bodies, he bought the land by laying gold coins edge to edge - an act that cost him everything but won him immortality in hearts and history alike.
Diwan Todar Mal reminds us that true devotion needs no sword - only the courage to do what is right, even in the face of tyranny.

On Shaheedi Diwas, we bow our heads in profound remembrance of Bhai Mati Dass Ji, Bhai Sati Dass Ji and Bhai Dayala Ji - the fearless pillars of Sikhi who embraced unthinkable pain with unshakeable faith.
Their martyrdom is not just a chapter of history; it is a living reminder of what it means to stand for truth, justice and righteousness even in the face of tyranny.
Their courage was carved in steel, their faith unburnt by fire, their spirit unbroken by oppression. May their supreme sacrifice continue to guide us, inspire us and awaken the strength within us to uphold dharma and humanity.
Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh. 🙏
The most handsome actor I ever saw , heart of gold - ‘Sholay’ would arguably be the greatest Hindi film of all time … fatherly figure for me and a legend forever … strength to his family to bear the irreparable loss 🙏@iamsunnydeol @BobbyDeol_
What do you say about a man that was all heart, so loving, so compassionate & one of the biggest superstars & a legend of Indian cinema 💔
When I didn’t know him I loved him and when I met him I loved him even more. Words fail me as I feel sadness creep into my heart.
I will miss you beyond words Dharam Ji ! Thank you for always being so kind, and for being so generous and loving to me. Thank you for entertaining us and for uplifting others around you. You lit up so many lives. There will never be another like you.
Rest in peace 💔💔💔
Om Shanti 🙏| End of an Era |Dharamendra | RIP | Heartbroken
Many Sikh Ghadarites acknowledged that their political awakening was shaped by the broader Sikh revival fostered through the Singh Sabha’s literary renaissance. Above all, Giani Gian Singh’s Panth Prakash ‘thrilled them with the glorious deeds of the heroes and martyrs of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries,’ rekindling the older spirit of the Srī Gurū Khālsā in a new age.
On his death anniversary, today paid homage to Shaheed Sardar Kartar Singh Sarabha at his residence 💐
He was hanged on 16th Nov 1915 at the age of 19. Shaheed Bhagat Singh was inspired by Sardar Kartar Singh Sarabha and used to carry his photo with him.
Amitoj | ਅਮਿਤੋਜ | اَمِتوج
Amitoj is formed from two Sanskrit-Punjabi roots - Amit (ਅਮਿਤ) meaning boundless, infinite, and Toj (ਤੋਜ) meaning radiance, brilliance, divine light.
Together, Amitoj means “the one with infinite light” -
a soul whose glow is not of the body, but of spirit; whose brilliance is not borrowed from the world, but born from within.
It is the light of awareness that neither fades nor flickers - the quiet strength that endures even through storms.
In spiritual essence, Amitoj reflects the truth that we are all fragments of the Infinite - tiny flames of the eternal fire.
To live up to this name is to awaken that light through Simran, to let compassion guide action, and to walk this world as a lamp of clarity amidst confusion.
For when the Infinite shines through you, you become both mirror and sun - limitless, luminous, and free.
Aamir Khan had to play two versions of Mahavir Singh Phogat in “Dangal”:
- A 60-year-old retired wrestler with a belly
- A 25-year-old national-level athlete in peak form
Most actors would have used prosthetics,
Aamir chose to become both men.
