Could it be cyber-bullying against the show?

Yes, Gaunda Punjab is one of the most popular shows in Punjab and Canada but the man behind the show has always had a history of controversies related to cyberbullying.

We are probably going to see a lot changing at the show – if the rumours regarding the cyberbullying complaint are true because the show was always been bashed by the public on various occasions for bullying international students and for making wrong allegations against celebrities and students

Sometimes in life, the message for stubborn people needs to be LOUD for them to hear the message. Gaunda Punjab and Joginder Bassi haven’t faced any legal issues yet but we can probably see the theme of the show being changed soon with a lighter approach going forward.
