Punjabi pop star Diljit Dosanjh kicked off his Bengaluru stop for the “Dil-Luminati India” tour in the most relatable way—by indulging in local cuisine. His first destination? The famous Rameshwaram Cafe.
Watch the video:
The video, that has gone viral with over 1.5 million views, was posted with the caption, “DILJIT ANNA TOUCHDOWN BENGALURU”.
Responding to it, one user said, “Rameshwaram check was mandatory.” Another fan commented, “PUNJABI BENGALURU AAGEYAAA OYEEEE!!!”
Another Instagram user wrote, “Babai tiffin da dosa try kro paaji.”
Dosanjh is set to perform on Friday at the NICE grounds in Madavara. This concert is a part of his tour across ten cities in India.
The Hyderabad controversy
Diljit Dosanjh found himself in the spotlight recently when the Telangana government served him a legal notice ahead of his Hyderabad concert. The notice, delivered just hours before his Friday performance, urged the singer to refrain from performing songs that glorify alcohol, drugs, or violence. Tracks like Patiala Pegg and Panch Tara were explicitly called out in the complaint.
Dosanjh addressed the issue while on stage saying it’s “very easy” for him to avoid those tracks since he doesn’t promote any kind of intoxication, and also said that he doesn’t consume alcohol.
