Diljit Dosanjh is under fire, but he’s not backing down. The actor-singer promotes Sardaar Ji 3 even as controversy brews over his casting of Pakistani actress Hania Aamir. At the same time, Diljit takes a bold stand against India’s censor board for demanding a staggering 127 cuts in Punjab 95, a film based on slain human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra. Calling the CBFC’s demands a threat to artistic freedom and historical truth, Diljit shared a hard-hitting note by critic Sunayana Suresh. The note compares the film’s censorship battle to Khalra’s original fight for justice, stating: “We’re not just suppressing art, we’re burying history.” Directed by Honey Trehan and produced by Ronnie Screwvala, Punjab 95 remains in limbo. But Diljit’s refusal to compromise is sparking conversations nationwide.
