On its third day, which also marked the film's first Sunday, it maintained a strong hold on audiences and collected ₹32 crore, bringing the domestic total to ₹87 crore.

Hania Aamir Spotted On Diljit Dosanjh's BTS Pics from Sardaar Ji 3? Here's What Fans Think
Last Updated: Fans spot Hania Aamir in BTS photos from Sardaar Ji 3 shared by Diljit Dosanjh, despite rumours she was replaced post-Pahalgam attack amid rising tensions. Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh recently gave fans a sneak peek into the sets of his much-anticipated film Sardaar Ji 3, sharing a series of behind-the-scenes photos on social media. While the spotlight was clearly on co-star Neeru Bajwa, eagle-eyed fans couldn't help but notice something — or rather, someone — unexpected lurking in the background: Pakistani actress Hania Aamir. Though Diljit didn't tag or directly acknowledge Hania in his post, fans were quick to piece together the clues. In one photo, a woman resembling Hania can be seen standing just behind Neeru, her cropped hair and eyes barely visible — but unmistakable to devoted followers. Another photo showed a woman in a black saree holding Diljit close, sparking even more speculation that Hania had indeed returned to the sets. Some even claimed her face appeared printed on Diljit's black T-shirt. This comes amid swirling reports that Hania Aamir may have been replaced from the film following the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, which left 26 Indian tourists dead and severely escalated diplomatic tensions between India and Pakistan. At the time, calls for a boycott of Pakistani talent gained momentum, with heightened nationalistic sentiment taking over social discourse. Many expected that cross-border collaborations in the entertainment industry would once again be shelved. View this post on Instagram A post shared by DILJIT DOSANJH (@diljitdosanjh) Diljit's caption, 'Jaggi With Beautiful Chudels. Sardaar Ji 3 Releasing 27th June. Teaser Coming Soon," made no mention of Hania, adding to the intrigue. While neither the production team nor the actress herself has confirmed her involvement, the glimpses have reignited debate over whether Hania is still part of the film. The timing of these visuals also coincides with growing public sentiment around Operation Sindoor, India's intensified military campaign in response to the Pahalgam attack. The operation, backed by strong political rhetoric, has once again reopened discussions about the presence of Pakistani actors in Indian entertainment, especially during times of heightened conflict. As of now, there's no official word on Hania's status in Sardaar Ji 3, but the behind-the-scenes whispers — and screenshots — are enough to keep fans and critics talking. Whether her appearance was a fleeting cameo, a full-fledged return, or merely a misidentified stand-in remains to be seen. What's certain, however, is that in the age of high-definition scrutiny and political sensitivities, no frame goes unnoticed. First Published:
