Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh, who is likely to perform in Mumbai on Thursday, has made it clear that nothing will prevent his shows from taking place.
The singer-actor shared his excitement on Instagram, posting a video of himself singing and dancing inside a private jet. The clip showed him enjoying a fun-filled time with friends while traveling.
In the caption, he teased his upcoming show, stating, “Tomorrow Mumbai. Mahalakshmi Race Course. ‘Shut down shut down’, you just see. DIL-LUMINATI TOUR Year 24.”
Earlier this week, Diljit addressed a controversy surrounding the spelling of the Indian state of Punjab.
He took to social media to clarify his position, explaining that English can sometimes be a tricky language, especially for non-native speakers.
Taking to X, Diljit posted, “Punjabi. If I mistakenly didn’t put up India’s flag after writing ‘Panjab’ in a tweet then it becomes a conspiracy. In a tweet from Bengaluru, I forgot to mention the Indian flag after writing ‘Panjab’, it became a conspiracy.”
“If you write ‘Panjab’ instead of ‘Punjab’, it will remain ‘Punjab’. Panj Aab – 5 Rivers. Bravo, those who create conspiracy around the usage in a language of the Englishmen. You know what, I will write ‘Panjab’. How many times do we prove that we LOVE INDIA? Bring something new, or is creating conspiracy is what you get paid for? #Vehley,” he further added.
ਪੰਜਾਬ 🇮🇳
Kisi ek Tweet Mai Agar ਪੰਜਾਬ ke Saath 🇮🇳 Flag Mention Reh Gaya Toh Conspiracy
BENGALURU ke Tweet Mai bhi Ek Jagha Reh Gaya Thaa Mention Karna..
Agar ਪੰਜਾਬ Ko PANJAB Likha toh Conspiracy
PANJAB Ko Chaye PUNJAB likho..
ਪੰਜਾਬ ਪੰਜਾਬ Hee Rehna 😇Panj Aab – 5 Rivers… pic.twitter.com/a1U7q8DW5j

In addition to addressing the controversy, Diljit also spoke about his decision not to hold live shows in India until the country’s concert infrastructure improves.
He shared in viral clips that the current infrastructure does not meet his standards, making it difficult to provide a worthwhile experience for his audience.
“Here we don’t have infrastructure for live shows. This is a source of big revenue, many people get work and are able to work here. I’ll try next time that the stage is at the centre so that you can be around it. Till this happens, I won’t do shows in India,” he said.
