In a video circulating online, Diljit, speaking in Punjabi, highlighted the challenges faced during live shows. He remarked, “Here we don’t have proper infrastructure for live performances. This generates significant revenue and employment, but the facilities need improvement. I’ll try next time to have the stage at the center for a better experience, but until things improve, I won’t do shows in India—that’s for sure.”
While Diljit’s announcement caught attention, the concert was still filled with memorable moments. Performing in his home city, the singer got emotional as he connected with his fans. He also dedicated the event to Gukesh Dommaraju, the newly crowned International Chess Federation (FIDE) World Champion.
Adding a touch of Bollywood fun, Diljit recreated Allu Arjun’s iconic “Jhukega nahi” dialogue from Pushpa, giving a nod to the actor. Despite not watching Pushpa 2 yet, he delighted fans by playfully saying, “If the saala doesn’t bow, why would the jija?”
