Imtiaz Ali explains Diljit Dosanjh’s absence
According to Hindustan Times, Imtiaz addressed the issue in an interaction with India Today. Actors were asked to avoid media interviews and use social media to promote their films. The question also referred to stars like Shah Rukh Khan, who have skipped regular media interactions in some recent projects.Imtiaz said, “I can’t represent the entire film industry in this, but for us, Diljit is not here because he is doing shows abroad, Sharvari is not here because he is shooting abroad.”He added, “When we got the release date, we knew it was going to happen, in fact, when we were taking Diljit’s film dates, we knew he would be performing in concerts when we released this film. But at that time, the casting of the film was more important than the ability to promote the actors.”Imtiaz said the team has not avoided promotions as a strategy. “We don’t have a strategy of not doing promotion or interaction, and I don’t know which strategy is better or worse. We do this because we’re used to doing it. We’ve made a film and we want it to reach.”
Diljit Dosanjh also missed the trailer
Imtiaz also responded when asked to stay away from controversies that actors now avoid media interactions. He said, “No, I don’t think so. It might be effective or not. If someone does not promote, they must think that it is not important and that it will not help the vision of the film”.Diljit had earlier leaked the trailer of ‘Main Vaapas Aaunga’. In a video message, he said, “Hi guys, this is Diljit Dosanjh. Love and greetings to everyone. You’re going to see the trailer of Main Vaapas Aaunga, so enjoy. I’m in Texas, so I couldn’t come. Tonight’s show in Texas is sold out.”He added, “I’m taking care of some things here; you do the same. Jaldi Main Bhi Vaapas Aaunga (I’ll be back soon too). Enjoy the trailer. If you like it, share it. If you don’t, still share it! After all, it’s Imtiaz Ali’s film.”‘Main Vaapas Aaunga’ marks Diljit and Imtiaz’s second collaboration after ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’. The new film is set against the backdrop of Partition in 1947 and explores displacement, identity, memory and belonging.
