Mumbai, June 23 -- Amid the ongoing backlash surrounding Diljit Dosanjh's 'Sardaar Ji 3', filmmaker Ashoke Pandit has come forward to share his views and said that "we are appealing to our producer bodies that please don't cast him(Diljit Dosanjh)".

Diljit has found himself on the receiving end of a social media backlash after the trailer of his upcoming Punjabi film, 'Sardaar Ji 3', which features Pakistani actress Hania Aamir, dropped online.

Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) has sent a letter to the Chairperson, Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), to "withhold certification of the Film "Sardaarji 3" containing Pakistani artists."

The controversy comes in the wake of the recent Pahalgam terror attack on April...
