Is Diljit Dosanjh Dropped From Border 2 After Hania Aamir Controversy? Here’s The Truth
Amid growing backlash surrounding Diljit Dosanjh’s latest film Sardaar Ji 3, fresh rumors have surfaced about his role in Border 2!
Amid growing backlash surrounding Diljit Dosanjh’s latest film Sardaar Ji 3, fresh rumors have surfaced online suggesting the actor-singer may have been dropped from Border 2. A viral Reddit thread claims Diljit was removed from the film after filming a few scenes, and that the makers are now scouting for a replacement.
Diljit Dosanjh Out Of Border 2?
Border 2, the sequel to JP Dutta’s iconic 1997 war film Border, is being produced by T-Series’ Bhushan Kumar. But the casting of Diljit has drawn sharp criticism from the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE), who are now urging the producers to reconsider their choice.
In a formal letter to Bhushan Kumar, FWICE expressed disappointment over Diljit’s involvement, citing his recent work with Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in Sardaar Ji 3 as the reason. “It’s disheartening that a film meant to honour Indian soldiers includes someone who has collaborated with talent from a country India shares tense relations with,” the letter states. FWICE believes casting Diljit sends the wrong message, especially for a film centered on patriotism and national pride.
While there has been no official word from the makers of Border 2, the pressure from industry bodies has fueled speculation that Diljit’s role may be in jeopardy.
Meanwhile, filmmaker Honey Trehan, who directed Diljit in Punjab 95, came to the actor’s defense. He pointed out that while controversies can easily turn political in India, it’s important to look at Diljit’s consistent contribution to the country. “He always carries the Indian flag with pride and is known worldwide for his work. We must see the bigger picture before making assumptions about his intentions,” Trehan said.
As the situation unfolds, fans await confirmation on whether Diljit will remain part of Border 2, or if the producers will bow to industry pressure and recast the role.
