Ajay on Diljit-Hania Backlash: “This Needs a Conversation”
At the trailer launch of Son of Sardaar 2, veteran actor Ajay Devgn addressed the recent backlash faced by singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh for collaborating with Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in Sardaar Ji 3. As social media continues to buzz with polarized opinions, Ajay Devgn chose a balanced approach, urging for understanding and conversation instead of judgment.

Responding to a journalist’s question about the trolling, Ajay said, “I don’t know where the trolling comes from. I can’t decide what is right or wrong — I’m not in his shoes to comment on that.” His remarks were a clear attempt to avoid fanning the flames while acknowledging the complex emotions involved in cross-border artistic collaborations.
The Drishyam star emphasized the importance of seeing things from different perspectives. “He must be dealing with his own problems. The people criticizing him have their own point of view. When two different perspectives clash, they need to sit down and resolve it. That’s how things work.”
Without picking sides, Ajay Devgn added, “I will not blame anybody. I won’t say who’s right or wrong — they need a conversation.” His words come as a rare moment of maturity in an industry often quick to take sides on politically sensitive matters.
Dosanjh, who remains a beloved figure in both India and among the Punjabi diaspora, has yet to respond in detail to the criticism. However, Ajay Devgn’s neutral and peace-promoting stance could influence the narrative moving forward.
