Diljit Dosanjh and Gippy Grewal are two of the biggest names in the Punjabi industry. The actors enjoy a massive fan base worldwide and have worked together in a movie titled Jinhe Mera Dil Luteya. The movie was indeed a gigantic hit and won the hearts of their fans. But after that, the duo never shared the screen space again.

There were rumors of a rift between the two. In a recent interview, Gippy Grewal finally decided to break the silence on the rift rumors. 

Producers can't afford Gippy Grewal and Diljit Dosanjh in same movie

In a recent interview with Siddharth Kanan, Gippy Grewal finally broke the silence on the rumors about the rift with Diljit Dosanjh. He recalled, "I remember we were in Punjab for an award show, and Gurdas Maan was performing on stage. He stopped his performance just to say that we were looking good sitting together and that we shouldn’t fight and shouldn’t listen to what people were saying. We were shocked to hear him say this because there was nothing like that. After that, Diljit went on stage and cleared that there was nothing like that."

He further added, "What happened was that when we started our careers, we did a film Jihne Mera Dil Luteya. That film became a massive hit. So, Diljit set his fees, and so did I. Now, to cast us both in the same film would be very expensive for producers. They couldn’t afford both of us. Because of this, we never got to work together, and people think that we aren’t working together."
