Punjabi star Diljit Dosanjh won over the Internet with his jaw dropping replies during his Twitter battle with actress Kangana Ranaut.

The war of words began after Kangana misidentified and mocked an elderly Sikh woman as Bilkis Bano of Shaheen Bagh, during the farmers’ protest. Her tweet sparked controversy and received a sharp response from Diljit, who was later slammed as “Karan Johar Ke Paltu” by the actress.

Meanwhile, Diljit took the plunge and came down to the Singhu Border to stand in support of the farmers protesting against the new farm bill. He also donated Rs 1 crore to buy warm clothes for the farmers protesting in the harsh Delhi winter.

And now, Diljit has taken to his official social media handle to support the ‘Bharat Bandh’ called out by the farmers on December 8, 2020. He shared a photo supporting the Bharat Bandh and wrote in another tweet, “ANN DAATA. Ena Rab Roop Bandeya Nu Terrorists Kehna BAND KARO. BHARAT HAI WANG MUNDRI VICH NAG PUNJAB DA. Asi Sarey Ardaas Karde Haan Ke Jaldi Ton Jaldi Maslaa Hal Hove wrote on social media (Stop calling farmers terrorists, they provide food to us all. If India is a precious ring then Punjab is its shining jewel. I am praying that this issue is resolved soon).”

On Saturday, Diljit addressed the protesters as he reached the Singhu border and said, “We have only one request to Centre..please fulfil the demands of our farmers. Everyone is sitting here peacefully and entire country is with farmers.”

Taking cues from the actor, many others from the Punjabi film industry including Mika Singh, Gippy Garewal, Vijender Singh, Himanshi Khurrana among others also raised their voice in support of the farmers.

After keeping mum for a long time, Bollywood too reacted to the ongoing farmers’ protest against the farm laws. Actors like Priyanka Chopra, Preity Zinta, Richa Chadha, Abhay Deol and others have expressed their support to the famers on social media.
