Like the words HOLLYWOOD and BOLLYWOOD, the word POLLYWOOD came into existence when Punjabi films created a space for themselves at National and International levels. The theme of the film POLICE IN POLLYWOOD-BALLE BALLE by Gautam Productions is that Police people will now direct and produce Punjabi films. It sounds like as if someone toothless is trying to eat almonds. Think for a while - what will happen to film makers if Police people start making films, because they are used to get every work done forcibly, by the power of a stick. In a gentlemanly way, they cannot offer water to anybody even from the place for free service of drinking water. Poor fellows- they might be good at hearts but they are slaves to their habits.

The film is set in a village in the outskirts of Bathinda city where villagers work in the fields of the local landlord. It is a village where people are trying hard to make peace with their existence. Daily rituals betray their simmering anger and their helplessness.
