surprised by the strong resemblance between him and his wax figure, which
sports black and red casuals with a huge neck piece and a black turban.It is the

Jenner."Diljit, who turned up at the event all suited up, has often

message."First of all, there is no need to be like me. I am just doing my
job. I am working for myself and family. Keep working hard, you will get what
you want," he said.The artiste has joined a host of national and
