‘Bet it stinks of curry’: Influencer Andrew Tate drops racist comment on Diljit Dosanjh
Andrew Tate made a racist remark on a video showing a sweet interaction between Diljit Dosanjh and one of his fans.
Diljit Dosanjh recently launched his 2024 India Tour with an opening performance in Delhi. The global star will cover ten cities by the end of this year. Before this, he was on a world tour, and visuals from his concerts are still circulating on social media. One such video shows his sweet interaction with a fan. It captures the Punjabi rockstar gifting his jacket to a woman. The clip has recently resurfaced on X after a few people chose to show the ugly side of social media and slam the husband whose wife received the jacket from the singer. The X post also attracted a racist comment from controversial British-American influencer Andrew Tate.
What did Andrew Tate say?
The self-proclaimed misogynist influencer took to the comments section of the X post to drop a rather disturbing comment. “Bet it stinks of curry,” he wrote, referring to the jacket Diljit handed over to his fan.
