Diljit Dosanjh always stays in headlines owing to his projects or concerts. The singer enjoys a crazy fan following and scrutiny and there are no two opinions on that.

While he has deleted the video, he has issued clarification on his statement. 

Diljit Dosanjh on not conducting concerts in India

On Tuesday, Diljit shared a note on social media clarifying that his statement had been misinterpreted, but he deleted the post shortly after. In a now-deleted post, Diljit wrote in Punjabi, “Nope. I said there was a problem with the venue in Chandigarh (CHD). So… until I get the right venue, I won’t plan the next show in Chandigarh. That’s it.”

During the concert, Diljit said in Punjabi, “We don’t have proper infrastructure for live shows here. This is a significant source of revenue, and many people depend on it for work. I’ll try next time to ensure the stage is in the center so you can all gather around it. Until then, I won’t be doing shows in India, that’s certain.”

The singer has been embroiled in several controversies during the Dil-Luminati India tour. In the latest, the singer received flak after spelling Punjab as “Panjab” in a post announcing his Chandigarh concert. His ‘Panjab’ post grabbed attention, with netizens pointing out the spelling which is associated with Pakistan’s region. Frustrated by the incessant trolling, the singer took to X and issues clarification.

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 😇
