In a recent interview, Sahiba spilled the beans on her electrifying encounter with Diljit. Her eyes sparkled as she recounted the thrill of sharing the screen with the Punjabi sensation. "I can't even begin to describe what an incredible experience it was," she gushed. She revealed that before she became his co-actor, she was already a die-hard Diljit fan. She has been an ardent follower of his music, journey, and has been besotted by his magnetic presence. It is obvious then that the day she had to shoot with him was an exciting day for Sahiba. "I was practically buzzing with excitement like a kid in a candy store meeting their idol," she revealed.

But here's the twist: Sahiba's perception of Diljit had been shaped by his larger-than-life persona on social media. The flamboyant, witty, and high-energy artist she knew from Instagram and Twitter (now X) was about to become her co-star. As she settled into her seat on set, waiting for the superstar to make his grand entrance, she had no inkling that the unassuming person sitting next to her since the past 30 minutes or so was none other than Diljit himself.

"He was so quiet, so zen," Sahiba revealed that in that moment, he wasn't the boisterous singer who rocked stadiums; he was just Diljit the man behind the music. She found it easy to talk to him, transcending the glitz and glamour. Diljit, in his meditative state, spoke with a calm intensity that belied his onstage persona. Sahiba couldn't help but marvel at the duality the yin and yang of this multifaceted artist. Someone who at one moment is belting out chart-topping hits, and the next, quietly contemplating life's mysteries.

As a former marketing whiz, Sahiba dissected Diljit's meteoric rise. "Timing," she emphasized, "is the secret ingredient. From Coachella to dropping new albums, collaborating with Hollywood heavyweights, and now Crew and Chamkila, he's riding a wave of success. This is his moment a fleeting crescendo and he knows it. Marketing is about seizing the spotlight when it shines brightest she said and feels that Diljit's doing just that strategically and brilliantly.
