Amid mounting media speculation about Bhushan Kumar and Diljit Dosanjh’s professional relationship, sources close to T-Series have firmly denied reports claiming that Kumar influenced casting decisions for the upcoming film Border 2. Recent articles alleged that Bhushan Kumar either banned or reinstated Diljit Dosanjh in the project following controversy related to Sardaar Ji 3, with some even suggesting that Kumar vowed never to work with the actor again. However, an industry insider dismissed these claims as entirely fabricated, stating that no such decisions have been made based on any agenda or external controversies, and that casting choices were driven solely by creative considerations and timelines.
The controversy surrounding Diljit Dosanjh originated from the political and social backlash faced by Sardaar Ji 3, which led to speculation that this fallout affected his involvement in Border 2. Insiders, however, reiterate that the casting process remains professional and free from political or personal motivations. Furthermore, reports suggesting that Bhushan Kumar intends to sever ties with Diljit after Border 2 have also been strongly refuted. According to sources, Kumar remains focused on delivering Border 2 as a major cinematic project and has made no statements about ending future collaborations with the actor.
This is the third instance in recent times where narratives have emerged alleging that Bhushan Kumar tried to manipulate Diljit Dosanjh’s role in Border 2, either lobbying for or against him. The official source categorically rejects these stories as baseless speculation that blurs the line between online rumors and actual decisions. Emphasizing a commitment to professionalism, the insider noted that Bhushan Kumar’s approach to casting and film development remains objective and unaffected by external pressures, cautioning that such unfounded reports are not only misleading but also harmful to the industry.
