Sardar Jagjit Singh Virk aka Jaggaa Daakuu

Gentleman Daakuu for some and dreaded by others. Balwant
Singh wrote a short story about him some fifty years
ago which is considered as one of the classic Urdu short
stories. There were songs written about his exploits.

"jagge maaryaa layallpur Daakaa
te taaraa.n kha.Dak giyaa.n
jaggeyaa, ve tuu.n parades gyo.n,
buuvaa vajjiyaa"

The punjabi movie 'Jagga'.This was only Punjabi movie till quite some
time to have bagged any National Award till 'Chann Pardesi' (1980's)
and 'Madhi Da Deewa' (1990's) came.Since Doordarshan had to represent
all languages in Sunday afternoon regional languages and one
prerequisite was either national film award or a Panorama appearance
in Film Festival,Jagga used to have an airing every 6 months or so.
