Jagdeep: Diljit is at a point where no one can touch him

Writer-director Jagdeep Sidhu: ‘Diljit Dosanjh has been trolled so much recently, but he has reached a point where no one can even touch him’ - Exclusive

Behind the glitter and glamour of the entertainment industry, exists a shadowy side that often stays unseen. One sees the smiling face, the faces that make it to the cover of the magazines, that charm the audience on the 70mm, but what one fails to see is the struggle they face owing to their fame. Amid the media scrutiny, their one wrong step, a little slip here and there, makes them an easy target for trolls. However, some stars have found their way around the noise. They have travelled the distance from what people would say to now whatever people will say wouldn’t weigh me donw. Speaking on the subject, Punjabi writer-director Jagdeep Sidhu in his exclusive conversation with us mentioned, that when you react the point of success, then, “ap logo ki aankho me khatakne lagte ho (you start becoming an eyesore for people).”Read on to know what Jagdeep Sidhu said on shutting down the noise in her exclusive conversation with us.

Jagdeep Sidhu says people’s opinion doesn’t weigh him down

“Jab ap start krte ho to apke pas aur cheezo k liye bht time hota hai coz abhi ek aadi cheez kari hoti hai, or jab main time ata hai, jab ap is side se uss side ja rhe hote ho na.. to suddenly ap khatakne lg jate ho, log apko target karna shuru kr dete hai. (When you start working, you have ample time for other things, as there’s much on your plate, and when you turn successful that travel the distance from one side to the other, you start becoming an eyesore for people. They start targeting you),” said ‘Phaphey Kuttniyan’ writer Jagdeep Sidhu as he candidly spoke on how what people say doens’t bother him anymore. He continued, “Vo ye hi hota hai k apki success se problem hoti hai logo ko. Aur thode time baad vo time ata hai jab ap us level ko bhi cross kr jate ho, fir sab theek ho jata hai. (This happens as people get jealous of your success. After a time you cross that level as well, and then everything appears fine.)”

Jagdeep Sidhu cites Diljit Dosanjh as an example.

Jagdeep Sidhu, further cited Diljit Dosanjh as an example to prove his point. He said, “For instance, currently, jitna troll Diljit Paji ko kiya gya hai kisi ko nahi kiya gya, but ab vo us jgha par hai, jaha koi chah kr bhi unhe touch nahi kr skta. Apko upar muh krna pdta hai, apne kaam pr dhyan dena padta hai (Currently, no one has been trolled as much as Diljit Dosanjh, but he has reached a point where no body can touch him. So you will have to keep your head high.)The writer, who recently worked on ‘Son of Sardaar 2’ refelcted that the chatter will always be there if you are doing something good, the sane thing is to simply mind your own business and let people say whatever they feel.
