Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann supports Diljit Dosanjh, criticizes attacks on Punjabis

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann defended singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh, who faced backlash for casting Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in his film Sardaar Ji 3.

"A Pakistani actress acted in the film, which was made earlier. She speaks Punjabi—our cultures are similar," Mann said at an event. "Now a Pakistani hockey team is set to play in India, and that’s somehow acceptable?" The Centre recently approved Pakistan’s partic

The soft blush-pink walls, the creamy white accents, those delicate floral arrangements… it all felt like a page out of a fairy tale. I walked through a floral archwa
