December 1, 2024: Diljit Dosanjh delivered an unforgettable performance in Kolkata on Saturday as part of his Dil-Luminati Tour 2024. While the concert itself was a hit with fans, it was Diljit’s heartfelt speech that truly stole the spotlight. During the event, the actor-singer praised Kolkata’s deep love for cricket, and in particular, the city’s pride — Shah Rukh Khan’s Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) team.
Diljit took a moment to highlight the iconic KKR tagline, “Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo Re,” calling it a powerful mantra for perseverance and teamwork. He shared his admiration for the slogan, saying, “It’s such a lovely slogan, and especially since it’s Shahrukh Khan Sir’s team, it’s bound to be great. I am a huge fan of him. This slogan also carries a wonderful message—work hard and fight alongside your team. And no matter where you are, it’s our duty to give 100 percent. So, if you give 199 percent effort, victory will have no other option but to come to you.”
The video of Diljit’s speech quickly made waves online, catching the attention of none other than Shah Rukh Khan himself. The Bollywood superstar shared the clip on his X account (formerly Twitter), writing, “Thank you for bringing joy to the City of Joy, @diljitdosanjh Paaji. I’m sure all at @KKRiders and their fans love the Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo reference. All the best and have a great tour…. Love u.”
Diljit’s words and the love between the two stars not only furthered the connection between their respective fan bases but also deepened the shared admiration between them, with SRK extending his best wishes for Diljit’s ongoing tour.
