Popular Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh is facing heavy criticism on social media for casting Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in his new Punjabi film Sardaar Ji 3. The film is not releasing in India and will be screened only overseas. This decision has sparked a major debate, especially because it comes just weeks after the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, and India’s strong response with Operation Sindoor.

Many people are angry because Hania Aamir had earlier made statements that were seen as disrespectful towards India, especially after the military strikes. Social media users are calling out Diljit for working with a Pakistani actress despite the tension between the two countries. Some users even said it was a betrayal of the country and demanded a boycott of the film and the actor.

After the 2016 Uri attack, Pakistani actors were banned from working in Indian films. This rule was again highlighted after the recent terror attack. People believe that artists should not work with anyone who has spoken against India. Many users posted videos and tweets calling Diljit’s actions “shameful” and “disrespectful”.
Despite the backlash, there are a few fans who praised Diljit for his courage to move forward with the film. They said he must have been under pressure but still chose to release the movie, even though it is not allowed to release in India. These fans called him bold and respectful for standing by his work.
