'Politics exists, and it will always go on': Jimmy Shergill explains why 'Satluj' faced roadblocks while 'Maachis' was celebrated amid global OTT takedown of Diljit Dosanjh starrer

The actor shared his views while responding to a question on why 'Satluj', a film dealing with a sensitive subject, failed to see a proper release, while his own debut film 'Maachis', which explored a similar theme, was widely appreciated.
