This year's controversies surrounding Diljit
Diljit Dosanjh has been in the news for many reasons this year. Sometimes for his films, sometimes for his statements. Let's explore the highlights of Diljit that made headlines this year.

Controversy erupts before the release of Sardarji 3: Following the Pahalgam attack, controversy erupted over Diljit Dosanjh's film Sardarji 3. Some organizations objected to the presence of Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in the film, which prevented its release in India and was only released abroad. As the controversy escalated, Diljit clarified that the film was shot when the situation between the two countries was normal. He said, "For me, my country always comes first; everything else is based on rumors."

Social media debate sparked by a statement about the India-Pakistan cricket match: During the Ora World Tour in Malaysia, a statement about the India-Pakistan cricket match sparked a stir. He said, "My film Sardarji 3 was made in February, when all the countries were playing. Then, the tragic incident of the Pahalgam attack happened, and we condemned it. We stand with our country. But now that these matches have happened, there's a huge difference between them and my film." People on social media questioned his patriotism. However, Diljit later clarified that his words were misinterpreted. He said, "A Punjabi, a Sardar can never go against his country."

Diljit was called a trucker on the Australia tour: Diljit Dosanjh uploaded a video on his social media account, in which he is talking about the Australia tour. When Diljit arrived at Sydney airport, he was called an Uber driver. Such racist comments were made. Diljit further said, "I think religion is one; people have divided it. I am not angry that people have made wrong comments. If there is no Uber driver, you won't get a car booking; if there is no truck driver, even bread won't come home. Waheguru will give wisdom to such people too."
