Satluj Performances
Diljit Dosanjh is at the top of his game here! This will be one of his best performances so far! The character's emotional journey is depicted much more through facial expressions and body language than traditional strong dramatic dialogue; Diljit portrays an enormous amount of courage, determination and powerful presence as Jaswant Singh Khalra.
