Des Hoyaa Pardes is a 2004 Indian Punjabi-language film, directed by Manoj Punj, starring Gurdas Maan, Juhi Chawla, Divya Dutta and Anup Soni.
During 1985, Gurshan Singh Somal lived a peaceful life as a farmer in rural Punjab, along with his elderly parents, Gurdev and Tejpal, and his unmarried sister, Guddi.
Far from being ethical and honest, he is only concerned with fulfilling a quota of deaths of so-called terrorists by fake police encounters.
When the police find a duffel bag of automatic weapons in Somal's house, they immediately arrest Gurshan and beat him up severely, even though he claims his innocence, alleging that real terrorists had forced themselves upon the family at gun-point.
Then in July, 1987, Sikh terrorists gun down a bus full of non-Sikhs, setting off a shock wave in the entire country.
A large number of Sikhs are hunted down and killed in fake police encounters, scores are arrested and tortured.
