according to the http://www.pinkvilla.com
The trailer of Diljit Dosanjh’s much-anticipated film Sardaar 3 has recently been released. However, immediately after its launch, the film and Diljit himself have come under heavy criticism online. A wave of trolling erupted, with some social media users even labeling the actor a “traitor.”
What’s sparked this backlash? According to reports, Sardaar 3 will not be released in India — it’s scheduled for an overseas-only release. This decision, along with the casting of Pakistani actress Hania Aamir, has angered a section of the Indian audience. Many are accusing Diljit and the film’s makers of being insensitive, especially in light of recent tensions following the Pahalgam terror attack in India.
Social media has been flooded with angry reactions. Users have criticized the filmmakers for casting a Pakistani actress in an Indian film, particularly at a time of heightened political and emotional sensitivity. Many are calling for a complete ban on the film in India and are demanding that Diljit be removed from upcoming patriotic projects — including the much-anticipated Border 2.

The makers have since responded, stating that Sardaar 3 was shot before the Pahalgam incident. In respect of public sentiment, they’ve decided not to release the film in India. Instead, Sardaar 3 will premiere exclusively in overseas markets on June 27.
The controversy has become a significant setback for Diljit Dosanjh, whose image appears to be taking a hit. Online critics have tagged him as a “Pakistani sympathizer” and “anti-national,” while the film’s creators continue to face growing pressure from Indian audiences.
Sardaar 3 is a horror-comedy-drama directed by Amar Mandal. It stars Diljit Dosanjh, Hania Aamir, and Neeru Bajwa in lead roles.
