'Censored before...': Diljit Dosanjh's post amid Sardaar Ji 3 controversy

Diljit Dosanjh posted a cryptic "Censored before release?" on Instagram, just as his film Sardaar Ji 3 hit controversy.
The film's under fire for casting Pakistani actress Hania Aamir after the Pahalgam terror attack, and an industry group (FWICE) is pushing for a ban on both the movie and Dosanjh.

TL;DR

Panjab 95 wanted 127 cuts; Diljit stood his ground

Sardaar Ji 3, a Punjabi horror-comedy, is currently blocked from releasing in India due to the backlash.
Meanwhile, Diljit's biopic Panjab 95 ran into trouble too—India's film board wanted 127 cuts, but he stood his ground and refused.
Even with all this noise, Diljit has kept promoting Sardaar Ji 3 internationally without directly addressing the casting debate.
