The film Sardaar Ji 3 was officially announced in July 2024 by Diljit Dosanjh, alongside producers Gunbir Singh Sidhu and Manmord Sidhu of White Hill Studios, in collaboration with Story Time Productions. It is directed by Amar Hundal and continues the horror‑comedy style of the franchise.[9] Filming began in late 2024, with principal photography taking place in Punjab, India, followed by an international schedule in the United Kingdom.[10] Diljit shared behind-the-scenes photos from the UK set in June 2025, showing scenes with Neeru Bajwa and hinting at upcoming ghostly and romantic sequences.[11][12]
The film marks the first collaboration between Diljit Dosanjh and Pakistani actress Hania Aamir.[13] Initial social media teasers sparked speculation, as fans spotted Hania in several BTS images. Her involvement was later confirmed in the official teaser trailer, released on 22 June 2025, which presented a humorous yet eerie tone and announced a 27 June 2025 global release.[14] Though the film premiered internationally, it was not released in Indian cinemas because of ongoing political tensions between Pakistan and India, and objections from the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE).[14][15]
Release
The film was theatrically released on 27 June 2025, targeting Punjabi speaking audiences in overseas markets mainly in Australia, Canada, Middle East, North America, Pakistan etc.[16] It was not released in the domestic market of India,[17] in response to political tensions and industry calls, including requests from the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) to deny certification for films featuring Pakistani actors.[15][18]
Box office
As of 28 July 2025, The film has broken all records of highest overseas collection for Punjabi films by collecting INR 150+ Crores (USD 14.75 Million) surpassing another Diljit Dosanjh starrer trequel Jatt and Juliet 3.[19]
In Pakistan, the film grossed PKR 10 crore (USD 300k) on the day of release, which is the highest ever first day for an Indian film.[20] As of 28 July 2025, It has emerged as the highest-grossing Indian film in Pakistan by beating Carry On Jatta 3 by earning INR 150 crores (PKR 450 crore) and as the second-highest grossing film in the history of Pakistan box office, only behind The Legend of Maula Jatt. [21][22]
In April 2025, following a terror attack in Pahalgam that worsened India–Pakistan relations, FWICE demanded a ban on Pakistani artists appearing in Indian films. This led to widespread speculation that Hania Aamir was removed from Sardaar Ji 3, though the production team did not confirm these reports.[23]Diljit Dosanjh’s release of a new poster of the film with Hania’s image further fueled debate. The film's trailer further confirmed the casting of the Pakistani actress Hania Amir. In a rare move, the makers decided to release the film overseas only. Despite not being released in India, the film emerged to be a major box office success. [24][25][18]
