Now as per latest reports, the makers of 'Sarbjit' have got a chance to screen their film for the Tihar Jail inmates. In fact the prisoners of Tihar Jail will be entitled to watch a film after a gap of 5 years; for, the last movie seen by them was in 2011. Sarbjit` will be having 4 screenings in a stretch of four days with multiple timings. The biopic showcases the struggle of the innocent Indian farmer Sarbjit Singh, who was imprisoned in Pakistan for a mistaken identity and his family`s relentless fight to release him.

Confirming the news, Vashu Bhagnani said, "Sarbjit is not just the story of a prisoner, it is also the story behind a prison cell number.
