Mumbai: After slamming Diljit Dosanjh for collaborating with Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in ‘Sardaar ji 3’ and demanding a ban on his future projects, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) has urged PM Modi to punish the Punjabi singer-actor.
Expressing “deep outrage” over the casting of the Pakistani actress, the FWICE condemned producers Gunbir Singh Sidhu, Manmord Sidhu and director Amar Hundal.
Further, the FWICE also appealed to Home Minister Amit Shah, Minister of External Affairs S Jaishankar, and Minister of Information & Broadcasting Ashwini Vaishnaw to take strict action against the filmmakers.
“Daljit Dosanjh, Gunbir Singh Sidhu, Manmord Sidhu and Director Amar Hundal, the public personalities enjoying the privileges of Indian citizenship, have committed an unpardonable act by hiring Pakistani actress Ms Hania Aamir in their upcoming film Sardaar Ji 3. This decision is not a mere creative choice — it is a willful affront to the sovereignty, dignity, and security of India,” read a part of the letter that FWICE wrote to Modi, ANI reported.
Calling Hania a “vocal propagandist against India”, the letter stated: “Hania Aamir is not merely a foreign artist. She is a vocal propagandist against India, who has used her platform to mock our armed forces, abuse India publicly, and shamelessly justify Pakistan’s terror acts post Operation Sindoor. Her inclusion in any Indian film is nothing short of an insult to every Indian citizen, every martyr, and every family affected by cross-border terrorism.”
“Ms Hania Aamir has, time and again, abused her platform to spread venom against India, glorify terrorist forces, demean our armed forces, and mock our national tragedies. Her association with any Indian project is not just insensitive — it is an act of open provocation against our people and our country,” it added.
“That Daljit Dosanjh, Gunbir Singh Sidhu, Manmord Sidhu and Director Amar Hundal, fully aware of her background and in brazen disregard of official government directives and industry-wide bans, chose to cast her, only proves where their loyalties lie. Their actions are a gross betrayal of the nation that gave them fame, fortune, and identity. It is a direct insult to every soldier who defends our borders, every family mourning a martyr, and every citizen who stands proudly under the Indian flag. We therefore demand, without equivocation, that the Government of India treat this as a serious breach,” the letter added.
“We respectfully urge that their passports be revoked without delay, and that they be permanently barred from availing any rights, privileges, or representation associated with Indian citizenship and national identity.”
“Their actions clearly reveal where their loyalties lie — not with India, not with Indian cinema, and certainly not with the people of this country.”
Meanwhile, sharing the trailer of the horror-comedy on his Instagram handle on Monday, Diljit captioned it as, “Sardaar Ji 3 releasing 27th June OVERSEAS only. FADH LAO BHOOND DIAN LATTAN.”
