Diljit Dosanjh NOT doing Salman Khan-Karan Johar production's Akshay Kumar starrer!

New Delhi: Singer-turned-actor Diljit Dosanjh is loved by the masses for his soothing vocals and equally amazing acting skills. After winning hearts with his 'Udta Punjab' performance, the actor will next be seen in Anushka Sharma's 'Phillauri'.

Recently, there was a buzz that Diljit is doing Salman Khan-Karan Johar's production venture with Akshay Kumar in the lead. However, he has refused such talks. PTI quoted him as saying,  "Those are wrong reports. I am not doing anything in it. It's a big film and a big subject. I am not in the film but there is excitement for Anurag. He is an amazing person and I am very happy for him."

The film apparently is based on Battle of Saragarhi and is being co-produced by KJo and Salman. It will be directed by Punjabi film director, Anurag Singh.

Also, his name has also been cropped up for a film titled 'Kaneda' to be produced by Anushka Sharma which would be their second outing after the upcoming movie 'Phillauri'. Though director Navdeep Singh had confirmed that the film will feature Diljit and Arjun Kapoor, "Udta Punjab" star neither denied nor confirmed being part of the movie.

"Till the time things don't go on floors, I don't think about it at all. I am only thinking about my next Hindi release 'Phillauri' right now and a Punjabi film that I am doing," he said.
