Jo Bole So Nihaal (also transliterated Jo Bole So Nihal; meaning "Blessed is the One") is a 2005 Indian film starring Sunny Deol and Kamaal Khan.

The film's release was met by protests from Sikh groups, who took offense at its use of a Sikh religious phrase as its title, as well as scenes in which a Sikh police officer is shown being chased by scantily-clad women.[1] Two terrorist attacks on May 22, 2005 on theatres in New Delhi showing the film killed one person and injured 49, prompting cinema owners to pull the film, in some cases voluntarily and in some states as a result of a government order.[2][3]
