In a follow-up post on Thursday, Guru tweeted in Punjabi, 'Lakh pardesi hoyieee. Apna desh nhi bhandi daa.

One should never wish ill upon the land that provides for them."

He added, 'Even if now your citizenship is not Indian but you were born here, please remember this. This country made great artists, and we all are proud of it. Please be proud of where you were born. Just an advice. Now don't start controversy again and manipulate Indians LOL. PR is bigger than the artist."
While Guru's posts remain open to interpretation, fans and netizens were quick to connect the dots—linking his cryptic remarks to the ongoing Sardaar Ji 3 controversy.
The timing, coupled with the tone of his tweets, only added fuel to the speculation.
Diljit Dosanjh addressed the controversy in a recent interview with BBC Asian Network, clarifying that Sardaar Ji 3 was filmed in February, before tensions escalated. He explained that unforeseen events occurred later, leading producers to opt for an overseas release. 'The producers have invested a lot of money,' he added, noting that the film was never intended for an India release under the current circumstances.
Diljit clarified that the situation was normal at the time he signed the film and the team had no way of predicting the events that followed. He expressed his support for the producers' decision to release Sardaar Ji 3 overseas, acknowledging that the current circumstances are beyond their control.
Sardaar Ji 3 is now scheduled for an overseas-only release on June 27, 2025.
