<div align="justify">Punjabi heartthrob Diljit Dosanjh says a meme based on his superhit film "Jatt & Juliet" was the inspiration behind his latest movie "Super Singh".<br /><br />The 33-year-old actor says the image went viral on the internet and when Diljit came across it, he thought of converting that photograph into a full-fledged movie.<br /><br />"When my film 'Jatt & Juliet' released, someone made a meme which showed my head superimposed over Superman's body. It became viral on social media and people were having a good laugh. I thought let this not be remembered like a meme," Diljit told reporters here.<br /><br />The actor, who was last seen in Bollywood film "Phillauri", says he took up the role in the Anshai Lal- directed film as it had a reference to the 1919's Jallianwala Bagh massacre.<br /><br />"I did the film because it somehow addressed Jallianwala Bagh. Even when I started my singing career, I sung songs about the incident, which however did not release. So, that was my connect with the film."<br /><br />The actor, who debuted in Bollywood with 2016's acclaimed hit "Udta Punjab", says he does not have a set pattern while choosing film scripts.<br /><br />"I don't think much before saying yes to a film. I'm an emotional person, even if one little thing hits me, I do it," he says.<br /><br />Talking about the stereotyping of 'sardars' in Bollywood films, Diljit says he did not do the Abhishek Chaubey movie to break any image.<br /><br />"Everyone is free to depict what they want. But I would not do so. I did not do 'Udta Punjab' to break stereotypes. I was offered the film and I connected with what they were saying. Their intention was good.<br /><br />"Abhishek narrated the script to me and told me it would be a real film. He told me, 'It's not about stardom. We'll have to tone down your stardom for this film. You won't look like a star, but the movie will be good'," recalls the actor.<br /><br />Diljit has generally appeared in positive roles but says he is open to do grey and negative characters too.<br /><br />His next Bollywood project could be a biopic.<br /><br />"I'm scared about it. I will have to prepare for the film for one-two months - that's something I haven't done before."<br /><br />"Super Singh" releases on June 16. <br /><br /></div>
