Amid the ongoing controversy over film ‘Sardaar Ji 3,’ starring Indian actor Diljit Dosanjh and Pakistani actress Hania Amir, a TV host from across the border has stooped low to challenge India. In a viral video, praising the film’s trailer, she can be heard saying, “Ab wo film release ho rahi on the 27th of this month, with Hania Amir of Pakistan, kar lo jo karna hai.” She further went on to say that the actor (Diljit Dosanjh) is from the Sikh community and fears no one (Darte kisi se nahi hai).
Pakistani TV Host Backs Diljit And Hania’s Sardaar Ji 3
The TV host, identified as Nadia Khan, applauded the film’s strategy, saying that following the recent India-Pakistan tensions, there was complete silence and uncertainty surrounding the movie’s release. There were even doubts about whether the film had been shelved or Hania had been removed from ‘Sardaar Ji 3’.
However, when the trailer of the film was dropped on June 23, it sparked mixed reactions among audiences. While several Pakistani celebs chose to support Hania, Diljit and extended their congratulations, viewers in India slammed the movie for casting Pakistani actress, despite the ongoing ban.
In the video, Nadia is heard saying, “Sabko yahi laga ki Hania has been removed from the film officially, Diljit was silent aur ab ye hua ki jab ye trailer aaya hai, Sardaar Ji 3 ka, toh usmein Hania Amir itni hai, thodi nahi, bahut zyada hai, she is everywhere.”
Supporting Diljit, Nadio pointed out that ‘Boycott Diljit’ is the sentiment in India these days, when he is right now the “biggest Indian star.” She added that people are after him and giving him tags of Deshdrohi and traitor.
She further highlighted that despite the strong reaction against the movie, it will be released, adding “Jo marzi karle.” Notably, Nadia wants it to be released in Pakistan too.
It is important to note that the film will not be released in India. Earlier, the All India Cine Workers Association (AICWA) wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, calling for immediate and stringent action against the singer-actor.
