Jassie Gill on Unbreakable Friendships, Fatherhood, and His Undying Love for Cricket – A Heartfelt Reunion in Canada

It felt like a scene straight out of a Punjabi film two old friends reconnecting after nearly 8 to 9 years. The setting? Canada Super 60, a vibrant cricketing event where singer-actor Jassie Gill was performing. What started as a chance meeting quickly turned into a heartfelt reunion, filled with laughter, memories, and a candid conversation at BC Place, Vancouver.

In a freewheeling interview, Jassie opened up about the constants in his life — friendships, family, and cricket. “It’s no secret that I’ve always loved cricket,” he shared. “Now, Babbal, Prabh, and I have decided we’ll make it a point to catch up more often over the game.”

Despite his stardom, Jassie’s circle of close friends has remained unchanged over the years — a fact he’s immensely proud of. “It should never change,” he says with a smile. “We’re here because of our friends.” Longtime companions Babbal Rai and Prabh Gill have stood by him from the beginning, setting a true example of lasting friendship.

The conversation also touched upon his daughter Roohjas, who is showing signs of following in her father’s footsteps. “She loves singing, and I don’t hold her back anymore,” he said with a proud grin. Jassie, who had spent a few years living in Calgary with his family, has now relocated to India for good — but his fan base continues to grow across Canada, America, and Australia.

As he gears up for his next Bollywood project (currently untitled), Jassie Gill remains grounded in the things that matter most: real friendships, quality time with his daughter, and the simple joy of cricket.
