One of the most famous Punjabi singers and actors Diljit Dosanjh recently surprised his fans during his Chandigarh show by saying that he would not do concerts in India. He cited the poor infrastructure of Indian stadiums for his live shows to be the reason behind his decision and urged the authorities to arrange better facilities. However, Diljit has now backtracked from his statement after getting hate from people and has clarified that he never said that he would not perform in India.

Let us tell you that the singer Diljit Dosanjh said that his comment was solely about the venue issues in Chandigarh and not about PAN India. Diljit issued a clarification and wrote in his new Instagram post, ‘No. I said that there was a problem with the venue in Chandigarh (CHD). So until I find the right venue, I will not plan the next show in Chandigarh. That’s all. I never said such thing.’

During his concert, Diljit said in Punjabi, ‘We do not have proper infrastructure for live shows here. It is an important source of revenue, and many people depend on it for work. I will try to ensure this next time and until that happens I will not do shows in India, that’s for sure.’ Apart from this, the singer has also faced criticism when he wrote Punjab as ‘Panjab’ in his tweet. However, after massive trolling, the singer wrote in his next post on X, ‘If the tricolor emoji is missed even once while mentioning Punjab in a tweet, it is called a conspiracy. Whether you write it as Punjab or Panjab. It will always be Punjab.’

Diljit explained, ‘Panj Aab as the land of five rivers, and said, ‘For those who are plotting about English spelling from foreigners’ language- well done. I will start writing in Punjabi in the future…ਪੰਜਾਬ.’ Slamming his haters, Diljit said, ‘I know you won’t stop. Keep going. How many times should we prove that we love India? Come up with something new guys.’
