Calls for Ban on ‘Sardaar Ji 3’ Grow Amidst Controversy Over Pakistani Actors

The highly-anticipated Punjabi film ‘Sardaar Ji 3,’ starring Diljit Dosanjh, is generating controversy, with demands for a ban intensifying. The film’s casting choices, specifically the inclusion of Pakistani actors, are at the heart of the issue. Hania Aamir, Nasir Chinyoti, Daniel Khawar, and Saleem Albela, all Pakistani nationals, are reportedly part of the cast. The BJP Chitrapat Kamgar Aghaadi, a union representing Indian film industry workers and technicians, has formally requested the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to deny approval and prevent the film from being released in Indian theaters. This opposition follows similar actions in the past and reflects the heightened political climate between India and Pakistan.
