Diljit Dosanjh concludes "Dil-Luminati" India tour amid legal controversies
Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh has concluded his much celebrated “Dil-Luminati” tour in India with a grand finale in Ludhiana. Sharing a heartfelt video on Instagram, the artiste was seen bowing to a huge crowd expressing gratitude and respect to his followers.
Controversy mar final concert
Despite a successful conclusion, a legal dispute clouded the final concert of the tour in Ludhiana. A local professor filed a complaint against Dosanjh for promoting alcohol consumption in his music, which started another controversy.
Similar legal challenges followed the singer in other cities on tour. In Hyderabad, Dosanjh faced legal notice in November for allegedly singing songs glorifying alcohol and violence. In Indore, he responded to allegations of black market ticket sales for his concerts.
Tour highlights and dedication to former PM
The "Dil-Luminati" tour saw Dosanjh perform in major cities like Jaipur, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Pune, Chandigarh, Mumbai, Kolkata, Lucknow, Bangalore, Indore, and Guwahati, drawing huge crowds at each venue.
At a recent concert, Dosanjh dedicated the performance to former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. Addressing the audience, he said, “Today’s concert is dedicated to the late former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. He led a very simple life and never spoke ill of others, which is remarkable in the world of politics.”
A token of appreciation for the Prime Minister
At the conclusion of his Ludhiana concert, Dosanjh presented a special poster of his “Dil-Luminati” tour to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, marking the end of his India tour on a high note. While the tour was a blend of roaring success and controversy, Dosanjh’s performances reaffirmed his connection with fans and his position as one of India’s most celebrated artists.
