     A Career Full of Historic Achievements

    Rising from a small village in Punjab, India, Diljit defies stereotypes with his distinctive fusion of modern and traditional aesthetics. His music features soulful melodies and often showcases his baritone voice, which is full of deep emotions.

    One of many milestones for the Punjabi star is the Billboard cover. This achievement is also about shattering stereotypes of South Asian artists globally. Last year, Dosanjh was the first performer from Punjab to appear at Coachella. In June, he made his debut on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.” Fallon referred to him as the “biggest Punjabi artist on the planet,” a term that accurately reflects his remarkable aptitude to navigate the worlds of fashion, music, and movies.

    His international collaborations with icons such as Ed Sheeran, Sia, and Saweetie illustrate his popularity globally. Talking about this memorable moment, he persuaded Ed Sheeran to sing a few lines in Punjabi – a moment fans still cherish.

    Triumph of Dil-Luminati Tour

    Reportedly, Diljit made an astounding earning of $28 million on his “Dil-Luminati” tour, which took place from May to July across various cities in the United States. The concerts attracted sizable crowds, with ticket prices ranging from $55 to $64.

    The response from fans was so overwhelming that some even bought tickets at exorbitant prices. Continuing the success of the North American tour, the tickets for his future gigs in Europe and the UK went sold out in seconds they were live,
