Veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah came in support of singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh amid the ongoing controversy against him for collaborating with Pakistani artist Hania Aamir in his film Sardaar Ji 3.
Amid the ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan, Diljit’s recent collaboration with Pakistani artist Hania Aamir is facing massive backlash from social media, celebrities and the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE).
However, amid all this, Naseeruddin Shah has now expressed his support for Diljit, clarifying that the singer wasn’t responsible for the film’s casting, and expressed his disapproval of restricting personal interactions between India and Pakistan.
He wrote, “I STAND FIRMLY WITH DILJIT. The dirty tricks deptt of Jumla Party has been awaiting a chance to attack him. They think they’ve got it at last. He was not responsible for the casting of the film, the director was. But no one knows who he is, whereas Diljit is known the world over, and he agreed to the cast because his mind is not poisoned. What these goons want is to put an end to personal interaction between the people of India and Pakistan.” He further expressed love for his ‘close friends and relatives’ who reside in Pakistan. No one can stop me from meeting them or sending them love whenever i feel like it. And my response to those who will say, ‘Go to Pakistan’, is ‘GO TO KAILASA’. (ANI)
