Diljit Dosanjh’s Personal Saga: From Secret Marriage to Newfound Love


Amid the glow of critical acclaim for his performance in the recently released biographical film ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’, directed by Imtiaz Ali, Punjabi heartthrob Diljit Dosanjh’s personal life is stirring conversations and curiosity. Diljit Dosanjh, a prominent figure in the Punjabi entertainment industry, has seen his personal journey marked by a concealed marriage, a subsequent divorce, and now, the emergence of a new romantic interest in his life.

Not long ago, it came to public notice that Diljit had covertly married an Indian-American woman, Sandeep Kaur. The union, shrouded in secrecy, was also accompanied by the birth of a son, who is currently living with his mother in the United States. However, the marital sanctuary faced challenges and eventually crumbled. Reliable sources have confirmed that Diljit and Sandeep are no longer together and, seemingly, are far from maintaining amicable relations. Their marital discord came to a head in 2017, and despite earnest efforts to salvage the relationship, it was heading toward a downward spiral. To prevent further deterioration and potentially toxic fallout, the couple made the decision to officially part ways. Diljit, ever the enigmatic figure, has also been reported to have found solace in the company of someone new, yet once again, he chooses to drape this relationship in veils of privacy, reminiscent of his first marriage.

Professionally, Diljit Dosanjh is basking in the success of his portrayal of Amar Singh Chamkila, a storied and sensational musical icon of Punjab, who climbed from depths of destitution to the zenith of the musical world in the 1980s before his untimely assassination at the tender age of 27. ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’, available to stream on Netflix since April 12, has been well-received for its honest storytelling and powerful performances, including one by Parineeti Chopra, who plays Chamkila’s wife, Amarjot Kaur.

To prepare for the role that has currently put him in the spotlight, Diljit admitted deferring to the wisdom of director Imtiaz Ali. He divulged, in interviews, the unusual yet insightful character prep approach that Ali adopted. Ali would frequently communicate via email, elaborating on what Chamkila might be thinking in various scenarios, rather than focusing solely on the film’s story or script. These insights deeply influenced Diljit’s portrayal, allowing him to step authentically into the character’s shoes. Diljit cherishes the emails and exclusive photos of Chamkila Ali provided as valuable resources for his performance.

While his professional journey depicts triumph and talent, Diljit’s personal narrative seems laced with as much drama and secrecy as the roles he embodies on screen. The revelation of his divorce and the prospects of a new romantic relationship have certainly grabbed the attention of fans and media alike. Yet, through it all, he maintains his stance of guarding his privacy, leaving much to public speculation.

As the singer-actor enjoys both the accolades for his latest cinematic offering and navigates the aftermath of his romantic revelations, it’s evident that Diljit Dosanjh continues to captivate audiences with both his artistic prowess and the enigma that surrounds his personal life. Whether in the realm of entertainment or in the intricacies of his private affairs, Dosanjh proves to be a figure of fascination and intrigue.
