STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'There was a film featuring Fawad Khan and Vaani Kapoor that many of us opposed, and yet, some still don't seem to get the message. What's more shocking is that a fake singer, after doing 10 shows in India with thousands of fans buying tickets, has now disappeared — leaving fans betrayed and helpless,' it added. While talking to BBC Asian Network, Diljit Dosanjh shared that the film, which is scheduled to release on 27th June, was completed before the cross-border tensions surfaced. 'Jab yeh film bani thi tab situation sab theek tha. We shot this in Feb and then everything was fine. Uske baad, bhut saari badi cheezen humare haath mein nahi hai. Toh producers ne decide kiya ki film obviously ab India toh nahi lagegi, toh overseas release karte hain. Toh producers ka bahut paisa laga hua hai aur jab yeh film bann rahi thi tab aisa kuch tha nahi," Diljit shared adding, 'Now the situation is not in our hands. So if the producers want to release it abroad, I support them." Directed by Amarjit Singh Saron, the movie also features Neeru Bajwa, Manav Vij, Gulshan Grover, Jasmin Bajwa, and Sapna Pabbi in key roles.
