However, it’s interesting to note that actor and singer Ammy Virk recently disclosed that he was initially offered a role in Crew but had to decline due to scheduling conflicts.
In an interview with News18, Ammy Virk lauded Diljit Dosanjh for making Punjabi artists shine in Bollywood as well. Reflecting on his missed opportunity in Crew, he explained that he had to pass on the role due to prior commitments. The role eventually went to Diljit Dosanjh, who was much loved in his role.
Additionally, Ammy Virk defended Diljit Dosanjh’s decision to portray a no-turban look in Imtiaz Ali’s upcoming biopic on Amar Singh Chamkila. In an interview with India Today, Ammy clarified that the depiction was in line with the authenticity required for the role, as Chamkila occasionally wore his hair short without a turban. He emphasized that Diljit used a wig for the portrayal, maintaining the integrity of his Sikh identity.
Released in March 2024, Crew revolves around three flight attendants who stumble upon a deceased passenger smuggling gold biscuits. Faced with their airline’s financial woes, they embark on a journey filled with greed and humor as they plot to steal the gold, leading to a series of entertaining escapades.
