Diljit Dosanjh's ex-manager comes out in his support amid row over casting Hania Aamir in Sardar Ji 3
PTC News Desk: Diljit Dosanjh's former manager Sonali Singh has come out in support of Punjab singer and actor amid the ongoing controversy surrounding the casting of Pakistani actor Hania Aamir in Sardar Ji 3.
Singh shared a lengthy statement titled “Always Choosing Love Over Hate,” in which she praised the Punjabi singer-turned-actor for consistently promoting love, unity, and kindness, and for never responding with outrage.
“In a career spanning over two decades, Diljit Dosanjh has become a cultural icon not only for India but for the global stage. Yet, time and again, he has been placed under the scanner, especially as a proud Sikh, a Punjabi, and an artist who has chosen to represent India with quiet pride rather than loud declarations. Despite being repeatedly targeted, Diljit has never resorted to outrage. His consistent message in interviews, music, films, and public appearances has always been rooted in love, unity, and kindness,” she said in the note.
She further emphasised the controversy owing to ‘Sardaar Ji 3’ and said, “Diljit has chosen to respect the sentiments of the Indian public and authorities. He is not releasing the film in India, standing in alignment with the nation’s current mood, showing once again that he honours the decisions of his own country even at a personal and professional cost.”
Sonali Singh also asserted that calling for boycott of a film which is not backed by a prominent studio can result in massive financial loss.
Diljit Dosanjh's Sardar Ji 3 has triggered a massive controversy after he announced that the movie starring Pakistani actress Hania Aamir will only be released overseas.
