Somewhere beyond the world we know, the Sachkhand Skytrain is waiting.

THE STORY

A JOURNEY POWERED BY LIGHT

After a difficult first day at a new school, a young Sikh boy quietly asks the sky a painful question:

“Why does being myself feel so hard sometimes?”

That moment awakens something magical.

Alongside classmates carrying their own fears and struggles to belong, Simran Singh Khalsa is called aboard the mystical Sachkhand Skytrain, a journey through worlds of light, imagination, and emotional discovery.
As darkness begins to grow around them, the children slowly realise that the things that make them different are not weaknesses but their light.

“Industry Talent Behind the Team”

“Featuring acclaimed writer and puppeteer Dilpreet Kaur Walia, whose experience spans globally recognised productions and studios including Netflix, Warner Bros, BBC, CBeebies, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, and Jim Henson production

“In this exclusive insight, Dilpreet shares her passion for Team Lantern and why this groundbreaking project represents a powerful new direction for global animated storytelling.”

WHY THIS MATTERS

At a time when the world can often feel divided, stories that bring people together matter more than ever.

For decades Sikh stories have rarely been represented at the highest level in global media.

We now have the opportunity to change that forever.

With your support, we can build a first of its kind Sikh inspired story, that will help shape our future generations and share our Gurus wisdom with the world in a way that's never been done before.

This is more than content.

It is legacy
