Punjabi Golden Pair in a Patriotic Saga

Sonam Bajwa will once again share the screen with Diljit Dosanjh, her most beloved co-star. Together, the two have delivered multiple hits from the emotional Punjab 1984 to the hilarious Sardaar Ji 2, the superhero fun of Super Singh, and the heartwarming Honsla Rakh.

And Sonam isn’t alone. She joins a powerhouse ensemble led by:

• Sunny Deol – returning to the patriotic zone fans adore him in.
