Amid the swirling storm of controversy surrounding the casting of Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in the latest installment of his film series, 'Sardaar Ji 3,' singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh has finally addressed the matter—albeit indirectly. His allusive Instagram post has left fans and critics alike buzzing.

In a recent social media update, Diljit shared an intriguing message that read, "Censored before release?" This cryptic comment hints at his frustrations, particularly given the delay faced by his other project, 'Punjab 95,' due to censorship woes.

'Punjab 95,' directed by Honey Trehan and produced by Ronnie Screwvala, delves into the life of Jaswant Singh Khalra, a human rights activist who courageously brought to light the mass disappearances that haunted Punjab during its tumultuous militancy era. Though not explicitly linked to 'Sardaar Ji 3,' the timing of Diljit’s post sends a clear message regarding his vexation with the ongoing scrutiny and controversy surrounding both his films.

'Sardaar Ji 3' is generating significant buzz as the much-anticipated third chapter of the fantasy horror-comedy franchise, particularly because of Diljit’s collaboration with Hania Aamir. This casting choice has ignited fierce reactions online, especially among Indian fans who are questioning Diljit's decision to work with a Pakistani artist amid the ongoing geopolitical tensions between India and Pakistan.

As the release date approaches, all eyes will be on how Diljit navigates this tumultuous debate and whether his works will be able to transcend boundaries to unite audiences instead of divide them.
