"Nanak Shah Fakir" has been to international film festivals like Cannes, Sikh Film Festival in Toronto and Sikhlens Film Festival in California.
 
 
Guru Nanak has been portrayed via computer graphics, and the songs in the film have been rendered by musical maestros Pandit Jasraj and Bhai Nirmal Singh and composed by music director Uttam Singh.
