Ever since Imtiaz Ali directorial, the biographical drama of Amar Singh Chamkila led by Diljit Dosanjh, Parineeti Chopra and Anjum Batra was released, a section of netizens was criticizing Diljit for cutting his hair.
Despite a stellar performance, people assumed that Diljit, who has been very clear about not removing his turban for any role, cut his hair for the movie Chamkila.
However, in a recent interview, Imtiaz Ali clarified that this wasn’t the case. The director stated that Diljit wore a “wig as turban” in the film. He said, although he would not like to share personal details about the Chamkila star, but Diljit “has not sacrificed a single hair for this film”.
“I would not want to share his personal details, but yes, Diljit has worn a wig. That wig is like his turban only. He has not sacrificed a single hair for this film,” shared the director.
“Because he played a character and knew how Chamkila looked, he managed to look the part with a wig. He donned the look very sincerely and with very good intentions,” he added.
