No, they are different. Punjabi Dutta's are a part of the "Mohyyal or Munjal" brahmin community . Mohyyals are one of the few "Martial " brahmins and are distinct from other Brahmin's as not only have they been warriors, but the men of the families have been meat eaters etc. One of the sayings you will hear is "Waah Dutt Sultan, adha Hindu adha Mussalman" i.e part of their lifestyle was Hindu ( the homes were run as typical Hindu homes" and part of their lifestyle was like Muslims ( eating meat, dressing , vocation etc-- external facing stuff).

Is Pakistani Punjabi same as Indian Punjabi language?

Pakistani Punjabi and Indian Punjabi are largely similar, as they share the same linguistic roots and many common words and phrases. However, they differ in script; Pakistani Punjabi is primarily written in Shahmukhi script (a variant of Perso-Arabic), while Indian Punjabi uses Gurmukhi script. There are also some regional variations in vocabulary, pronunciation, and cultural expressions influenced by the distinct sociopolitical contexts of Pakistan and India. Despite these differences, speakers from both sides can generally understand each other.
