Diljit Dosanjh Slams Censorship As Dhurandhar 2 Shines Punjab 95 Waits

Diljit Dosanjh has reignited debate in Bollywood by contrasting the smooth release of Dhurandhar 2 with the continued delay of his Punjabi biopic Punjab 95. While Dhurandhar 2 enjoys packed theaters and glowing reviews, Punjab 95 remains trapped with the censor board despite being completed. This has sparked heated discussions about censorship, representation, and artistic freedom in Indian cinema.

“Why One Film Flies, Another Dies?”

Diljit’s fiery reaction has set social media buzzing. He pointed out how Dhurandhar 2 thrives in theaters while Punjab 95, based on human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, has been gathering dust for years. His frustration is clear: Bollywood gets the spotlight, but Punjabi cinema is left fighting for survival.

Punjab 95 The Film They Don’t Want You To See

Directed by Honey Trehan, Punjab 95 is a hard‑hitting biopic that dares to tell an uncomfortable truth. Despite being completed, the Central Board of Film Certification has refused to clear it. Reports suggest the CBFC demanded over 100 cuts, which Khalra’s family and supporters opposed, insisting the film deserves an uncut release.

Dhurandhar 2 Riding High On Success

Meanwhile, Dhurandhar 2 is enjoying strong distribution, positive reviews, and a wave of publicity. The contrast could not be sharper: one film thrives, the other is silenced. Diljit’s reaction has amplified the conversation about selective storytelling and ideological influence in Indian cinema.

Diljit’s Power Packed Lineup

Here are Diljit’s confirmed projects:

Sardaar Ji 3 – Punjabi horror comedy, releasing in 2025.

Border 2 – Hindi patriotic drama, releasing January 23, 2026.

Punjab 95 – Completed but still awaiting clearance and release.

Detective Sherdil – Already released on ZEE5, June 20, 2025.

Curtain Call A Fight Bigger Than Films

Diljit Dosanjh’s reaction is not just about two movies. It is about the bigger battle for artistic freedom. While Dhurandhar 2 basks in glory, Punjab 95 remains locked away, raising tough questions about censorship, representation, and whose stories get told in Indian cinema.
