Diljit Dosanjh shares trailer of 'Sardaar Ji 3' featuring Pakistani actress Hania Aamir, faces backlash
Sharing the trailer of the horror-comedy franchise on his Instagram on Monday, Diljit announced that the film will release exclusively overseas on June 27.
Diljit captioned the trailer post, 'Sardaar Ji 3 releasing 27th June OVERSEAS only. FADH LAO BHOOND DIAN LATTAN.'
The comments section of the actor's social media platform quickly turned into a storm of angry reactions with Indian netizens expressing their disappointment over his decision to work with a Pakistani artist, amidst tensions between the two countries.
'May we witness the most embarrassing downfall of Diljit Dosanjh in the history of public embarrassments... a kind of downfall that his PR could never salvage,' wrote one user on X.
Another user added, 'As a Punjabi, I am saying this: Diljit Dosanjh has started to think he is above all. He never openly stands for the issues of Punjab and is now even betraying his own industry, which gave him this fame. Banning and unbanning are not in our control, but their artists have legitimately insulted the Punjabi film industry.'
One comment read, 'I used to be his fan, but this is unforgivable. And it gives a bad name to us and the Punjab he loves to gloat about.'
The controversy comes in the wake of the recent Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, followed by India's Operation Sindoor on May 7, in which air strikes were carried out on terror bases in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
Several Pakistani artists, including Hania Aamir, had their social media accounts made no longer accessible in India following the ghastly Pahalgam attack.
The trailer of 'Sardaar Ji 3' is currently not on YouTube India but has been shared by Diljit on his Instagram page. (ANI)

Salman Khan's ex-girlfriend Somy Ali hits back at trolls for backing Faissal Khan in feud with Aamir Khan: ‘He's of sound mind and absolutely stable'
Salman Khan 's ex-girlfriend and former actor-model Somy Ali took to Instagram to respond to backlash she has been receiving for supporting Faissal Khan over his family feud with his brother Aamir Khan . She clarified that extending help to someone in difficult times does not equate to hypocrisy, even if that person may have spoken ill of her in the past. 'I have been getting a lot of heat for supporting Faissal. I want you all to know that just because someone speaks ill of you, it doesn't mean you drop the ball on them during their hard times. There is no hypocrisy here,' she wrote in a long note. On her stand Somy further explained that what Faissal had previously said about her was 'none of her business,' but how she reacts to his struggles is her own decision. 'I will support and stand by him or anyone else who is going through rough times,' she added. Clarifying her equation with Aamir Khan, Somy mentioned that she doesn't know him well enough to comment. 'We did one photoshoot and we were both very professional. Aside from exchanging pleasantries we didn't say a word and just did the shoot and left.' Faissal Khan alleges Aamir Khan 'imprisoned' him citing schizophrenia Backed by psychology background Somy, who holds a degree in psychology, shared that she had worked in a psychiatric hospital during her internship. Referring to Faissal's earlier claims, she said, 'I watched Faissal's interviews, conclusively he's of sound mind and absolutely stable. I used to give schizophrenia medication to patients during my internship. That has dire consequences if a person is not suffering from schizophrenia. That doesn't sit well with my ethics or my moral compass. ' 'None of us are perfect' Ending her note, Somy shut down those accusing her of hypocrisy, stressing that her upbringing compels her to stand by people in distress. 'As long as no one has physically harmed me and they are in trouble, and I know they are in the right I will speak up for them. People get hurt and say things which I did, but now he's in trouble and I will support any of you if it came to that including Faissal. None of us are perfect and I know I am not. I simply have the fortitude to say something.' "Get the latest updates on Times of India, including reviews of the movie Coolie and War 2 ."
