Arjan Singh Nalwa

Arjan Singh Nalwa (died 1848) was the youngest son of Sardar Hari Singh Nalwa and a minor jagirdar and rebel who refused to surrender to British rule in Punjab after the conclusion of the Second Anglo-Sikh War. He locked himself up in his estate in Gujranwala with 100 of his men and fought off a party sent by the Lahore Darbar to subdue him. Finally, a company of Skinner's Horse was sent to bring him in, but he escaped from his estate in time and died on the run a few years later. His property was confiscated by the British.

Popular culture Arjan Singh Nalwa is the focus of the song 'Arjan Vailly' from the 2023 Bollywood film Animal. The film character, played by Ranbir Kapoor, is shown as a violent, stubborn, but courageous individual, which accurately reflects Arjan Singh’s real personality.
