Diljit Dosanjh is the man of the hour. He plays Amar Singh Chamkila in the film of the same name, making his entry into Imtiaz Ali’s world as the filmmaker returns after half a decade. He performs at concerts with Ed Sheeran and attends the Ambani wedding. Technically, he is everywhere. But amid all this, controversy knocked on his door recently when a rumour suggested that the actor is married and even has a son. It was alleged that he had kept them hidden from the public eye. Soon, a series of pictures of Dosanjh with an unknown woman started going viral, and soon she was identified as Sandeep Kaur.
It turns out she is not Sandeep Kaur but some anonymous woman who just happened to have worked in one of Diljit Dosanjh’s many music videos. She is also not his wife. The woman took to Reddit to refute all these claims, setting the record straight so that she is not subjected to questions and judgements anymore. The woman who was labelled as Diljit’s wife has written a very long post. She first made it clear that her name is not Sandeep Kaur, as the viral rumours suggested.
As per Bollywood Life, she wrote, "A while ago, I worked as a model and did a music video shoot called ‘Shoon Shaan’ for the movie Mukhtiar Chadha with Diljit Dosanjh. Ever since then, somehow or the other, I was made aware by friends and relatives that my image was being used maliciously to be ‘Diljit Dosanjh's wife’ on the internet. At first, I laughed it off as I had no idea how this happened, and I did attempt some takedown requests across YouTube and Quora. Never did I think the image would remain so pervasive for so many years. This news continues to go viral every so often, and here we are again with my image being used on a lot of TikToks and Instagram posts recently. I just want to clear the air that this picture is of me, and I am not Sandeep Kaur."
The clarification clears up a lot of doubts and does good for both Diljit Dosanjh and the lady. Dosanjh, who is a widely loved personality, has always been private about his personal life and has guarded it well. This is not the first time rumours around his alleged wedding have made it to the mainstream. The same thing happened a couple of years ago when the Amar Singh Chamkila star played along with the rumours and was having fun on social media.
Meanwhile, Amar Singh Chamkila was released on Netflix a couple of hours ago and is already trending. It stars Parineeti Chopra alongside Diljit and is written and directed by Imtiaz Ali and his brother Sajid Ali. The movie that was set for a direct-to-Netflix release has AR Rahman’s impeccable music album with Irshad Kamil on lyrics. Stay tuned to OTTplay for more information on this and everything else in the world of streaming and films.
