The attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, in April 2025 left India and Pakistan’s relationship bitter. The incident, which took 26 innocent lives, resulted in several projects, including Pakistani actors, being shelved. Amid that, Diljit Dosanjh’s film, Sardaar Ji 3, features Pakistani actress Hania Aamir, which led to massive outrage among the netizens and extreme trolling of Diljit and the makers of the film for retaining Hania after what happened. While Diljit tried to explain his side of why Hania was retained, netizens are not happy about it.
Diljit Dosanjh revealed why Pakistani actress, Hania Aamir, was retained in Sardaar Ji 3
Diljit Dosanjh has been one of the most loved actors and singers in the country. However, his recent decision to work with Hania Aamir has led netizens to pull away from the actor. In a recent interview with BBC Asian Network, Diljit finally broke his silence on the matter. The actor reacted to his fans criticising him for working with the Pakistani actress, Hania, despite the ban. It was also worth noting that, Sardaar Ji 3, is going to be released overseas and won’t be released in India. During the conversation, Diljit clarified that the film was shot in February 2025, when things were better between India and Pakistan. He was quoted as saying:
“Jab yeh film bani thi tab situation sab theek tha. We shot this in Feb and then everything was fine. Uske baad, bhut saari badi cheezen humare haath mein nahi hai. Toh producers ne decide kiya ki film obviously ab India toh nahi lagegi, toh overseas release karte hain.”
