He stated that Diljit was not the one responsible for casting Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in the movie.

What did Naseeruddin Shah say about Diljit Dosanjh's controversy?

Shah shared, "I STAND FIRMLY WITH DILJIT. The dirty tricks department of the Jumla Party has been awaiting a chance to attack him. They think they’ve got it at last. He was not responsible for the casting of the film; the director was. But no one knows who he is, whereas Diljit is known the world over, and he agreed to the cast because his mind is not poisoned." He further stated that he has a couple of close relatives and friends in Pakistan and no one can stop him from meeting them. "What these goons want is to put an end to personal interaction between the people of India and Pakistan. I have close relatives and some dear friends there and no one can stop me from meeting them or sending them love whenever i feel like it. And my response to those who will say “Go to Pakistan” is “GO TO KAILASA,” he concluded.

Why is Diljit Dosanjh facing backlash?

The Punjabi singer and actor has been facing a lot of backlash for working with Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in "Sardaar Ji 3" amidst ongoing tension between the two neighbors following the Pahalgam attack.
Prior to this, Diljit's 'Chamkila' director, Imtiaz Ali also came in his support saying he is not someone who fakes things. "I don't know the details, but casting someone isn't the decision of the actor. I don't know how it went, but I know that uske andar desh prem bahut zyada hai (He loves his country too much). Jo log dekh paayenge unke andar ke sach ko, unko ye samajh mein aa jaayega (People who can see the truth, will understand)," the 'Tamasha' maker revealed.
