Diljit Dosanjh Sceptical Over Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari's Theatrical Release: 'Our Audience Loves Movies Par Jaan Zaada Pyari Hai' - EXCLUSIVE
Although Diljit Dosanjh is very happy that his comedy Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari has released in movie theatres, he wonders if the public will return to theatres with the pandemic still prevalent. “We are a movie-loving country. Lekin jaan zyada pyari hai (but we love life more than movies). I wonder if people would take the risk!” wonders Diljit.

Diljit who was out of the country for six months had no idea about the release plans for Suraj Pe Mangal  Bhari. “We completed the shooting in March 2020 just before the lockdown. After that I was in the  US. I came to know it was going to have a digital release when I suddenly heard  about the theatrical release. I am very happy that  our film is breaking the lockdown deadlock. Let’s see how it goes.”

Diljit says he had loads of fun  shooting the  film. “Manoj  Bajpai Sir is such a senior actor. But he  didn’t make me feel like a junior for even a minute. I got to learn so much working with him.”

Diljit enjoys working in light-hearted  films. “But I don’t want to be typecast in comedy roles. I want to  be known for  all kinds of roles. Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari gave me a chance to work with some really talented actors. I am just a beginner as an actor. Everyone was more experienced on the set than me.”

While Diljit was in the US he recorded a new music album.  “I have been singing and acting for ten years. Singing remains my first love. I can live without acting. But I can’t live without singing. My live concerts are my lifeline. When I’m there on stage I feel the direct and immediate love of my fans. On stage when I perform I feel I am communicating with my audience. It’s a feeling that  no other form of  expression  can replace.”
