After touring the world as part of Dil-Luminati tour, and becoming the first Punjabi singer to appear on The Tonight Show, Diljit Dosanjh is now set to appear in a song with K-Pop singer Jackson Wang. The two singers have collaborated for the song 'Buck,' which is going to be a part of Jackson's upcoming album Magic Man 2. With the album all set to release on July 18, Jackson is currently in India to promote it.
In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Jackson recalled the first time he met the G.O.A.T singer. He said, 'The first time I encountered him was a few years ago. We performed at Coachella. His set was the last that closed out the Sahara tent, and my show was before that. And after my performance, I rush down. I looked. I watched his crazy set, and I was like, 'Oh my God, maybe one day, I will be blessed to have a collaboration with him.''
Jackson Wang manifested this collaboration for some time until he wrote the song 'Buck'. The singer said, 'I thought Diljit is gonna sound like fire on this song. I slid into his DM, and then I texted him.'

He added, 'I said, 'Hey champ. So this is the song that I created, If you like it, vibe with it. If you don't, it's all good.' He replied, 'Super.' He showed me a lot of love and support, and that's how the collaboration came together.'
In the same interview, Jackson Wang shared that he is a fan of Diljit Dosanjh's song 'Chauffeur,' a Punjabi track that blends elements of Punjabi music with rap. Diljit collaborated with Canadian singer Tory Lanez for the song.
Jackson Wang recently created curiosity among fans after pictures of him hanging out with Hrithik Roshan and his family surfaced online. Many speculated whether he will be seen in the actor's upcoming film Krrish 4.

Rajinikanth's Coolie has a Christopher Nolan movie inspiration: Guess the unexpected Hollywood twist

Tamil filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj , known for blending Indian cinema with global influences, has reportedly drawn inspiration from Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight for his upcoming film Coolie. According to Tollywood star Nagarjuna Akkineni, who plays the villain in the film, Lokesh referenced Heath Ledger's iconic Joker for the character's costumes and overall vibe. Pinkvilla reported that Nagarjuna explained in a conversation with Shruti Haasan that the director wanted to capture the 'madness' he saw in Joker, particularly through the costume design. 'I think Loki had Heath Ledger's Joker in his mind, and he wanted that madness. He probably saw the madness in the colour as well,' Nagarjuna said, highlighting the unique purple-and-cream costume he dons in the movie.

He recalled, 'Loki told the dress designers. They got two or three options. He saw and said, 'This is it. This is the one I want.' I also had a jacket. Purple jacket. It was really good. I never wore those colours.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas In Dubai | Search Ads Get Rates Undo Describing the outfit as unconventional, Nagarjuna added, 'It is a very strange dress. I mean, even for me, it's baggy pants.' Shruti Haasan agreed, observing that the costume combines elements of both Heath Ledger's Joker and the traditional Joker imagery. Nagarjuna humorously remarked that he was 'glad he didn't put on that smile.' Preparing for a Negative Role Nagarjuna, who has predominantly played heroic characters, revealed that he approached this negative role differently. He recorded the narration for the first time and took detailed notes before agreeing to play Simon, the character inspired by Joker. The actor reflected, 'The story starts with Simon's character. For the first time, I've recorded the narration and made notes to decide on the character. I never did this earlier.' Even Superstar Rajinikanth, playing the titular role, was reportedly impressed with Nagarjuna's portrayal. 'After the shot was over, Rajini sir nodded and said 'hmmm' (with a sweet smile),' Nagarjuna recalled. Coolie, featuring Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna, Shruti Haasan, Upendra, Soubin Shahir, Sathyaraj, and Aamir Khan, is releasing in theatres on August 14.
