Hania Amir still in Sardaar Ji 3
Although there were speculations that Diljit Dosanjh clarified Hania Amir is not a part of his movie Sardaar Ji 3, the actor was only putting the speculations of an image to rest. Hania Amir is confirmed to be a part of Sardaar Ji 3 and the same was confirmed with the trailer release of his movie.
Sardaar Ji 3 to release overseas only
Sardaar Ji 3, thus, will only release overseas. The movie was scheduled for July 27 release in what was assumed to be Indian theatres. However, the Punjab-based singer-actor has now affirmed that the movie from his much-loved franchise will see an overseas release only in order to retain Hania and respect India's ban on Pakistani artists.
When FWICE threatened to ban Diljit Dosanjh
FWICE wrote a letter to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) pleading to stop Diljit Dosanjh's film Sardaar Ji 3 from releasing in India. They threatened that since the movie shows various Pakistani artists, Diljit could also face a ban in the industry. Days since the complaint, Diljit made the surprising announcement.
