Actor-musician Diljit Dosanjh responded to an appeal for him to join Punjab politics, calling him ‘the new political face’. Diljit Dosanjh might talk about Punjab wherever he goes, but he made it clear that he’s happier entertaining than in politics.

Diljit Dosanjh REJECTS Appeal To Debut In Punjab Politics
Punjabi Tribune wrote an article titled ‘Can Diljit Dosanjh be the new political face of Punjab?’ In it, they report that a group of civil society activists, including retired soldiers and people from various walks of life, made a public appeal to Diljit to enter politics. The group led by retired bureaucrat SS Boparai reportedly wants to see the actor-musician lead, precisely because he never demanded it.

Speaking about Indians’ history with Canada, when they weren’t allowed to step into the country. He said, “That stadium we did in Vancouver…like 1914, our people came first time in Canada, they didn’t allow us to come and go to Canada. And that stadium is just two kilometres away from the Guru Nanak Jahaz Komagata Maru incident. So, it’s a big thing for us now, 55,000 people in the one stadium there, just two kilometres away, you didn’t allow us to come. And now, here we are, man. So, that’s why it’s amazing.”
