Diljit Dosanjh has been captivating audiences around the globe with his exciting concerts during the Dil-Luminati Tour Year 24. Despite dealing with some controversies, his enthusiasm remains as vibrant as ever.

However, Diljit recently stated that he would hold live shows in India once the concert infrastructure improves. Several clips of him discussing the need for better infrastructure went viral on social media. In one of the viral clips, he shared, “Here, we don’t have infrastructure for live shows. This is a source of big revenue, many people get work and are able to work here. I’ll try next time that the stage is at the centre so that you can be around it. Till this happens, I won’t do shows in India."
