Diljit Dosanjh shares Border 2 BTS clip in uniform, quashes removal rumours amid Sardaar Ji 3 row over Hania Aamir casting

Amid the ongoing row surrounding Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh's upcoming film Sardaar Ji 3, which also stars Pakistani actor Hania Aamir, several rumours have been circulating that Diljit Dosanjh would be replaced in Border 2. However, the 'Born to Shine' singer has shut down all the claims by sharing a behind-the-scenes (BTS) video of himself shooting for the Indian war film.

On Wednesday, Diljit shared a BTS video on his Instagram, putting all the speculations regarding Border 2 to rest and confirming his continued involvement in the project. The clip shared by the singer gave a glimpse into the day on the sets of his upcoming film.

Just the previous week, after the singer unveiled the trailer of his upcoming Punjabi film Sardaarji 3, an online backlash sparked, where fans flooded social media, asking the makers of Border 2 to remove the actor.



In the video, the 41-year-old singer is seen stepping out of his vanity van, wearing a uniform and then walking into the sets as he preps for a dance sequence.

The clip also shows Diljit rehearsing and going through the scene, and he is seen dancing with them. Additionally, the title track of Border, 'Ke Ghar Kab Aaoge', could also be heard playing in the background.

Sharing the video, Diljit captioned it 'BORDER 2' in caps.

As soon as the video surfaced on social media, it quickly grabbed the attention of netizens, and one user on a Reddit thread expressed, "Indian Govt ne Pakistani Youtuber and Celebrities ko unbanned krna start kr diya. Isko remove krne se kya ho jaayega."


"Border 2 director is close to Diljit, they've done 6 films together. He's directed 10 movies in total, " another added.

While according to one, it's surprising how the government is not taking any actions, "I wonder how Diljit becomes the villian when ruling party has no issues. I am so sure hatred is based on what community the man comes from."


One asked, "Interesting. Do you think people will watch it when it releases?"



Over the last few days, Diljit has been surrounded by criticism and controversy regarding his latest film, Sardaar Ji 3, as the film has the Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in it. Diljit is working with the Pakistani actress after the recent Pahalgam terror attack left netizens furious.

In one of the Instagram posts shared by Diljit, he mentioned that the film didn't release in India and is only open overseas.


Following the controversy, social media stirred with reactions linked to the callouts to replace Diljit from Border 2. Moreover, some reports even surfaced saying that the makers of Border 2 are likely to drop Diljit from the film and that he would be replaced by actor Ammy Virk.
