Diljit Dosanjh had a promising career in Bollywood, but after his “100 100 rupay waali” jibe, he has killed his own career

Bollywood is nothing less than a golden goose for many, and scores of actors, who have been superstars of regional cinema, have tried their luck here as well. However, very few of them have been actually successful, and Diljit Dosanjh, a Punjabi bigwig, was one of them. However, with one slugfest on Twitter against actress Kangana Ranaut not only exposed his real self but has also placed a huge question mark on his entire career, especially in Bollywood.

Recently, Kangana Ranaut had attacked the involvement of shady protesters from ‘Shaheen Bagh’, such as the old Bilkis Bano, for their involvement in the alleged farmer protests going around New Delhi. Initially, Diljit attempted to clarify that it wasn’t Bilkis, but a Sikh lady, Mahinder Kaur.

However, what was initially a case of mistaken identity, soon turned into an ugly slugfest on Twitter, with neither side ready to budge. Kangana, being aggressive as usual remarked, “Hey favourite pet of Karan Johar, the lady who was protesting against CAA at Shaheen Baagh, is the same who is protesting for the MSP of farmers here. I don’t even know who is Mahinder Kaur, why are you involving women for political gains? Stop this drama!”

Diljit got enraged and he replied, “Are you the pet of everyone with whom you have worked? By that logic, you should have many masters. This is not Bollywood, but Punjab. Such gimmicks don’t work here!”

However, Diljit did not just stop at that point. He went on to tweet in reply to Kangana’s accusations, “How you can say other women as ready to be sold for 100 rupees being a woman yourself? We’re blessed with the blessings of every Punjabi mother; you’ve put your hands into the beehive. Google the Punjabi meaning!”

With such a threatening tone, Diljit revealed the man for what he is – a double-faced misogynist, who is ready to heap the choicest of insults on being challenged. While Kangana has invoked controversy more than once for her over aggressive stance, it was Diljit who crossed the line and revealed his murky personality.

To talk in a contemptuous tone over a case of mistaken identity indicates the kind of person Diljit actually is. Unfortunately, he has made the same mistake for which actors like Richa Chaddha, Swara Bhasker and Taapsee Pannu today are nothing more than meme materials on social media.

Also, people forget that in industries like the Indian Cinema, especially Bollywood, your public image really matters. Though Diljit has a Punjabi film Jodi and a Hindi film Kaneda in the pipelines, with his ugly Twitter fight with Kangana Ranaut, he surely has paved way for his slow but imminent destruction. Unless and until there is someone like Anurag Kashyap, not many would now be ready to invest on a person, who is a closet misogynist, and purportedly roots for Khalistani secessionists.

To be honest, the alleged farmer’s protest has been beneficial in a way – it has unmasked the faces of those, who still yesterday, claimed to do anything for the betterment of the nation. The way in which Diljit revealed his true self while protesting against Kangana Ranaut’s opinions, has destroyed any semblance of what could’ve been a really promising career for him in Bollywood.
