About Diljit Dosanjh's Delhi concert

Earlier, fans were left restless as the show did not begin on time. Many fans were left frustrated due to the humid conditions inside the venue. There were hundreds of fans who had lined up in JLN Stadium to catch the singer belt out some of his beloved tracks such as Born to Shine, GOAT, Lemonade, 5 Taara and Do You Know hours before the show began. However, the lights dimmed at around 8 PM and Diljit made a power-packed entry, much to the relief of fans. Several of them also took to their social media accounts to share their excitement of finally watching their favourite singer live.

Diljit has been wowing audiences in Europe and North America, and is finally bringing the Dil-Luminati magic to India. The second show in Delhi will be held on October 27. The tour will then make its way to Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Pune, Kolkata, Bangalore, Indore, Chandigarh, and Guwahati.

On Friday evening, Diljit took to Instagram and posted a video of him landing in India and meeting fans. "Delhi Ka Mausam Kya Keh Raha Hai (What is the weather of Delhi saying) DIL-LUMINATI TOUR Year 24," he captioned the post.
