Excitement is building among Diljit Dosanjh‘s fans for his forthcoming Delhi concert this October, which is a major stop on his much-awaited Dil-Luminati Tour in India. With ticket demand soaring, some fans are having difficulty obtaining tickets. To protect fans from online fraud and cybercrime, the Delhi Police released a clever and timely alert on their social media channels. This warning not only drew attention from fans but also received a notable response from Diljit himself.
The Delhi Police’s official social media accounts recently posted a video featuring Diljit Dosanjh’s hit track “Born To Shine,” which was cleverly adapted to warn fans about fraudulent ticket sales. The video’s message stated, “Gaana sunne ke chakkar mein ticket ke liye galat link par paise puse dekar apna band na bajva lena. (In your desperation to listen to his music, don’t click on fraudulent links and lose money.)” The caption added both humour and a serious tone with, “Paise Puse Baare Soche Duniya, Alert Rehkar Online Fraud Se Bache Duniya!” and included hashtags like #OnlineSafety and #CyberSafety.

The post resonated deeply with both fans and Diljit Dosanjh himself, prompting him to share the inventive warning on his Instagram Stories. He added the caption, “Delhi Police (fist emoji),” to show his appreciation for the authorities’ efforts to safeguard his audience.
As part of his Dil-Luminati Tour 2024, Diljit Dosanjh’s concert in Delhi on October 26 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. has already sold out in record time, leading to a flurry of frustrated fans trying to grab tickets before the website went down. Although social media is buzzing with complaints, the excitement for the show remains intense.
The Dil-Luminati India Tour will begin on October 26 with a performance in New Delhi. The tour will then move on to various cities including Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Pune, Kolkata, and others, wrapping up with a grand finale in Guwahati on December 29. Given the high demand, the organizers are contemplating the addition of additional cities to the tour.
