Guru Randhawa’s Cryptic Post Sparks Storm Amid Sardaar Ji 3 Controversy

Guru Randhawa Drops “Born in India” Bomb, Deactivates X Account as Controversy Grows

The Sardaar Ji 3 controversy has taken an interesting twist. Singer Guru Randhawa found himself gradually embroiled in a controversy after he shared a cryptic post that many hold as an indirect attack on actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh. The words were alarming enough, considering the casting of Pakistani actress Hania Aamir and the film's release only abroad.

Randhawa’s Cryptic Post Sparks Reactions

Randhawa’s message, shared on X, came at a time when Diljit was already facing public backlash. Without directly naming anyone, Randhawa spoke about remembering one’s roots and not allowing PR to overtake real talent. He emphasized being proud of being born in India. The language of the post, mixed with subtle jabs, left little doubt for many who quickly linked it to Diljit Dosanjh.

Social Media Divided Over Randhawa’s Intentions

Social media erupted as fans analyzed the post. Many accused Randhawa of using the controversy to gain attention. Others defended his stance, calling his remarks a wake-up call. The heated responses didn’t stop at opinions. Memes, hashtags, and criticism followed swiftly.

“PR Is Bigger Than the Artist” Line Draws Fire

The line “PR is bigger than the artist” particularly caught attention. Fans of Diljit pointed out Randhawa’s past work, including songs like Lagdi Lahore, suggesting hypocrisy. Soon after the uproar, Randhawa deactivated his X account. This sudden move further fueled speculation, making the controversy even more intense.

Diljit Responds to Backlash Over Film Release

Meanwhile, Diljit addressed the issue in an interview. He confirmed that Sardaar Ji 3 had finished filming in February, before cross-border tensions rose. He clarified that the decision to release the film abroad was the producers’ call, made due to circumstances beyond their control.

Broader Debate in the Punjabi Entertainment Industry

As Sardaar Ji 3 readies for its June 27 overseas release, public focus has shifted from the film’s storyline to its unfolding real-life drama. Randhawa’s exit from social media hasn’t silenced the noise. It has only deepened the mystery.
