The film ‘Crew,’ featuring Kareena Kapoor, Tabu, and Kriti Sanon, has been in theaters for two weeks and has garnered much affection from viewers. Trupti Khamkar, portraying a police officer in the movie, recently discussed her shooting experience, expressing that it was a significant opportunity to work alongside numerous stars. She had many scenes with Diljit and commended the actor, describing him as “spiritual.”

Trupti described Diljit as a devout follower of Lord Shiva, often reciting ‘Om Namah Shivay.’ Speaking to The Free Press Journal, she expressed, “I would definitely like to work with Diljit again. He is the most God-like person I’ve ever met. He comes with the most amount of humility. He is a Shiv bhakt and he constantly chants Om Namah Shivay. When you are around him, you feel like you are in a temple, near God. He is very spiritual.”

Trupti expressed her admiration for Diljit, stating, “Diljit is, of course, an amazing actor, and he is never not there. Even in between scenes, he looks into your eyes. I want to be like him. If I become only 10 per cent of what he is, mujhe lagega maine duniya jeet li hai (I’ll fell like I have done something). He is ‘Dil-Jeet’ in a real sense.”

In the same interview, Trupti mentioned that during filming, director Rajesh A Krishnan assured her that her role was “even bigger” than Diljit Dosanjh’s, although she initially took it as a joke. “During the shoot, the director (Rajesh A Krishnan) told me that my role is very important, even bigger than Diljit Dosanjh. I thought he was just fooling me and wanted to make me happy. But when I saw the film, I was surprised and that is when I understood that he was not lying,” she shared. Diljit has a cameo appearance in the film.
