Since the Pahalgam attack, India–Pakistan tensions have spiked, and now Diljit Dosanjh is catching heat for teaming up with Pakistani actors. What started as a fun teaser drop for Sardaar Ji 3 has turned into a full-blown controversy!
Diljit Dosanjh Gets Bashed For Working With Pakistani Actors In Sardaar Ji 3
Diljit’s bubbly Sardaar Ji 3 teaser dropped with lead actress Neeru Bajwa, opposite Pakistani sensation Hania Aamir and suddenly, it’s global gossip. FWICE President BN Tiwari, in a spicy chat with Hindustan Times, didn’t hold back. He claims Diljit’s collaboration uprooted “Indian sentiments” and disrespected “our brave soldiers.”
He shared, he said, “He has disrespected the sentiments of the nation and insulted the sacrifice of our brave soldiers. His preference for Pakistani talent over Indian artists raises serious questions about his loyalty and priorities. By collaborating with a Pakistani actor, Diljit has hurt Indian sentiments, disrespected the nation, and insulted the sacrifices of our brave soldiers.”
Ban Alert: FWICE Demands Filmmaker Fallout
Tiwari demands a ban, he shares, “We have heard that the film is not being released in India. But if they plan to release it, we will ban it. For now, they are releasing overseas only. That being said, Diljit working with a Pakistani actor is something we are not ready to overlook. We have called for a strict ban on all upcoming films, songs or any other sort of projects. We will also issue a formal letter on the same today. Along with Diljit, we have also called for a ban on the producers of the film regarding all their upcoming films.”
They sent a stern letter earlier, but apparently got ghosted. He revealed, “We gave them a letter but didn’t get a response from the team. Now, we will directly ban them.”
On paper, it’s just a horror-comedy movie. But in real time? It’s a cultural double-edged sword. India–Pakistan relations are tense, and when celebs cross those borders, even artistically, it becomes a political powder keg. FWICE is framing it as loyalty trouble, putting creative freedom in the firing line.
Sardaar Ji 3: Meet the Cast & Release Plan
Directed by Amar Hundal and bankrolled by Gunbir Singh Sidhu, Manmord Sidhu, and Diljit himself, Sardaar Ji 3 stars Diljit Dosanjh as Jaggi, flanked by Neeru Bajwa and Hania Aamir. The quirky mix-ups aren’t just limited to India’s Kab buzz; they’re making waves globally, with an overseas launch set for June 27, 2025. But India’s release? Still MIA.
Supporting roles land on Gulshan Grover, Manav Vij, and Nasir Chinyoti, making it more than just another face-off movie.
Is This a Ban-worthy Breech or Just Creative Crowding?
Let’s be real, tastes vary. For some, art transcends borders; for others, it’s about sentiment and respect. Is Diljit bravely blending cultures or stirring unwanted drama? FWICE certainly thinks the latter. The rest of us are just waiting to see if Sardaar Ji 3 will even touch Indian cinemas.
