Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh

Tagline: A controversial figure straddling the spheres of spiritual leadership and cinema, Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh.

Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, born in 1967 in Gurusar Modia, Rajasthan, India, ventured into the world of filmmaking in the 2010s, with a penchant for the action and comedy genres. The spiritual leader-cum-director is best known for his MSG (Messenger of God) series, none of which, however, have garnered any major film festival accolades. His films are often characterized by lavish sets, over-the-top action sequences, and a strong undercurrent of religious messages, reflecting his position as the head of the socio-spiritual organization, Dera Sacha Sauda. Beyond his cinematic endeavors, Singh remains a figure of considerable controversy, with a personality as flamboyant and larger-than-life as the characters he portrays in his films.
