The Singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh said that he doesn’t give a damn about getting work in Bollywood while talking about his bitter experience in the industry.

Punjabi actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh made a stunning debut in Bollywood with Udta Punjab and since then, there has been no looking back for him. He also made his mark with Soorma, a biopic on the life of hockey player Sandeep Singh. His other Bollywood projects include Phillauri, Welcome to New York, Arjun Patiala, Good Newz, and Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari. But it seems like Diljit has had a bitter experience while working in Bollywood.

In his recent interview, Diljit Dosanjh said that he doesn’t give a damn about getting work in Bollywood. He got pleasant emotional while answering the question and appeared visibly angry over everything that has happened. However, Diljit chose not to dig out the old skeletons at this moment.

“Punjab me jo bhi artists hai, wo khud gaane banate hai. Ye bohot badi azaadi hai. Koi hume rok nahi sakta hai. Toh music banane se mujhe koi rok nahi sakta. Jab tak mera mann karega, music banega. Jab tak bhagwaan chahega, music banega. Bollywood me kaam mile na mile, Ratti bar fark nahi padta (Every artist in Punjab makes his/her music. We have that freedom. No one can stop us. No one can stop me from making music. I will make music till my last breath and till the time there is God’s will. I give a damn about getting work in Bollywood),” he said. When Diljit Dosanjh was further asked about his bitter experience, he said, “Baat niklegi toh door tak jayegi. Bach jao jitna bach sakte ho (If I reveal, it will go too far. Save yourself till the time you can).” He then added, “Superstar honge apne Ghar pe.” However, Diljit regretted his words and asked the interviewer to not persuade further.

Early, Diljit had said while looking back at his journey that there was a time when all he ever wanted to do was make music, and nothing else. He asserted that it took a while for him to understand the business aspect of showbiz.
