After days of speculation and controversy, Diljit Dosanjh has silenced the buzz around his alleged removal from Border 2 by dropping a behind-the-scenes clip straight from the film’s set. The video, posted to his Instagram, shows the singer-actor suited up and in high spirits, filming a vibrant sequence as a large dance troupe grooves in the background. The iconic song Ke Ghar Kab Aoge, the emotional anthem from the original Border film, plays over the scene—cementing Diljit’s presence in the highly anticipated sequel.

The buzz around Diljit’s supposed exit caught fire following the release of the Sardaar Ji 3 trailer on June 22. The film, which stars Pakistani actress Hania Aamir, sparked a backlash online due to its timing—just weeks after a terror attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, which intensified sensitivities around Indo-Pak collaborations in the entertainment industry. With emotions running high, social media users questioned Diljit's decision to continue promoting Sardaar Ji 3 overseas amid the ongoing tension.

Adding fuel to the controversy, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) recently sent a letter to Border 2 lead actor Sunny Deol, urging him to reconsider his association with any projects that involve collaboration with Pakistani artists. “Your decision to disassociate from this collaboration will reaffirm your enduring image as a true patriot,” the letter read—indirectly referencing the situation involving Hania Aamir and Sardaar Ji 3.

With one timely Instagram post, Diljit has not only put the rumours to rest but also reminded fans and critics alike that he’s not stepping away from the war drama anytime soon. As Border 2 shapes up to follow in the legendary footsteps of its 1997 predecessor, Dosanjh’s place in the cast now looks more secure than ever.
