Diljit Dosanjh Confirms His Met Gala 2025 Appearance with Cryptic Post, Bolstering Indian Presence

May 4, 2025: The buzz surrounding the Met Gala 2025 continues to grow as more stars from across the globe prepare for one of the most glamorous nights of the year. After reports of Shah Rukh Khan, Kiara Advani, and Priyanka Chopra making their way to New York for the prestigious event, another Bollywood icon, Diljit Dosanjh, has sparked excitement with hints at a potential debut on the Met Gala red carpet.

While Diljit has not confirmed his attendance outright, a cryptic post on his Instagram story has sent fans into overdrive. The singer and actor shared a message that read “First Time,” accompanied by an hourglass emoji, along with the song Met Gala by Gunna playing in the background.

If Diljit does attend, it would mark a significant moment for Indian representation at the Met Gala, which has previously seen stars like Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone walking the red carpet. With Shah Rukh Khan, Kiara Advani, and Priyanka Chopra already rumored to be on the guest list for Met Gala 2025, Diljit’s potential debut would add to India’s growing presence at the event.

Kiara Advani and Shah Rukh Khan have already landed in New York ahead of the gala, which is scheduled to take place on the first Monday of May — this year, May 5.

The Met Gala, an annual fundraiser for the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is known for its extravagant red carpet and its role in raising millions of dollars for the museum. Last year, the event raised over $26 million. What started in 1948 as a midnight supper in Manhattan has since evolved into one of the most exclusive and anticipated events in the fashion and entertainment industries.

With stars from around the world expected to attend, the 2025 edition of the Met Gala promises to be yet another unforgettable night for fashion enthusiasts and fans alike.
