The singer shared a video where he praised the late leader and called him ‘a simple and graceful man’. Diljit also praised the late PM and urged the youth to tackle tough situations like he did.

Diljit Dosanjh shared the video from the night and wrote, “Today’s Concert is dedicated to Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji DIL-LUMINATI TOUR Year 24 ”

In the video, Diljit said a couplet about the late PM keeping silent in face of hate, “Hazaaron jawabon se acchi hai meri khamoshi, na jaane kitne sawaalon ki aabru rakhe (My silence is better than thousands of answers, I don’t know how many questions I have to respect)”.

Diljit reflected on Manmohan Singh’s dignified life and career and shared, “Agar main unki life ki journey ki taraf dekhu, toh unhone itna saada jeewan jia hai (If I look at his life, he led a very simple one).” He added, “Agar unko kisi ne bura bhi bola, toh unhone kabhi ulta jawaab nhi diya. Halanki politics ke career me ye sabse mushkil kaam hai (Even if someone spoke badly to him, he never replied back. However, this is the most difficult thing in a career in politics).”

Diljit also added in Hindi, “I think today’s youth should learn from it, I should too. We should focus on our goals even if people speak worst about us and try to distract us. The one who is speaking badly about us is also an avatar of God. You are being tested on how you react to it.”

Diljit also emphasised how Manmohan Singh’s legacy is deeply ingrained in Indian history.

Reacting to the clip, a fan wrote, “History will be kinder to him than the contemporary media,” while another posted in the comment section, “A legend paying tribute to another legend .”

Diljit Dosanjh’s Dil-Luminati tour in India started in Delhi in October and over the months he performed in Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Pune, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Indore, and Chandigarh. His next stop is Ludhiana on December 31st.
