Diljit Dosanjh discloses accepting 'Jatt and Juliet 3' after blank cheque proposal

Bollywood actor and singer Diljit Dosanjh offered interesting details about his upcoming film Jatt and Juliet 3.

According to News 18, the 40-year-old singer disclosed during the trailer launch event of his Punjabi film Jatt and Juliet 3 that he agreed to the project despite initially not feeling inclined to do so.

The Udta Punjab actor disclosed that the producer of the film offered him a blank cheque.

Remembered his reluctance to join the third installment of Jatt and Juliet due to certain disagreements with producer Darshan Grewal, Diljit said, "When Jatt and Juliet 1 was being made, Darshan Singh Grewal, the producer of Jatt and Juliet, we had problems with each other."

"So when the movie offer came to me, I wanted to go and reject the film in person. I had gone to his office to refuse the offer because of our history."

Sharing details of receiving the offer of blank cheque, he further shared, "When I reached his office, he signed a blank cheque in filmy style and told me, ‘Paaji, fill the amount, I want to do a film with you.’ I didn’t foresee this."

"I took my manager at the time aside and discussed, ‘Now what do we do? We cannot refuse this no.’ We researched who charged the most in the industry then, it was Gurdas Maan sir, so I decided to enter the same amount."

"He got me the amount and I decided to put that sum with TDS so that the producer could withdraw his offer. He replied, ‘Add another one lakh to the amount and sign the film.'"

The trailer for Diljit Dosanjh's Jatt and Juliet 3 premiered on June 11, 2024.

Starring alongside Neeru Bajwa, the film is scheduled for release on June 27, 2024.
