His name is Pritam Singh Bhalla.

But he had a hobby of acting and making films. Gradually he quit his job at the printing press and started working for Mumbai Film Light Man.

In 1988, he was hired as a Cinematographer by Veerendera, a famous superstar of Punjabi industry. The film Jatt Te Zameen, which is being made under his direction, was shot.Munda Pat Leya set the song for the filming, where Veerender was shot by the assailants during the ongoing shooting. Veerendera died on the spot.

Pritam Singh Bhalla shot by two bullets one was below the knee and he was admitted to DMC Hospital, Ludhiana. He was under observation for 5-6 days. When they learned of Veerendera's death, they were devastated. He loved Veerendera Ji and his family very much.

Today the Punjabi industry has forgotten him. No Punjabi actor takes his name. Not remembering them. Industry salutes the living, forgets the dead. This custom is not of today, it has been going on for a very long time.
