Diljit Dosanjh, who is currently on his Dil-Luminati Tour, came forward to support his fans who got emotional during his concert. This move came after a video of a woman crying during Diljit Dosanjh’s Jaipur concert went viral and sparked trolling. In a heartfelt Instagram post, Diljit said, “Only those who have emotions can cry.”
Diljit’s Dil-Luminati India Tour kicked off on October 26 at Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium and continued with a performance in Jaipur. During his Jaipur show, a video captured a woman crying as he sang “Dil Tenu De Dita Mai Ta Sohneya.” While her emotional reaction was genuine, many online users ridiculed her and a man who had an emotional moment when Diljit gifted a jacket to his partner.
What Diljit Dosanjh said about fans getting emotional
Addressing the trolling at his Hyderabad concert, Diljit shared a video with the caption: “A woman who knows her worth doesn’t need validation—she shines bright enough to light her own way.”
In the clip, speaking in Punjabi, the singer defended the emotional reactions his music evokes, saying: “Music is an emotion. It makes people smile, dance, fight, fall, and even cry. I, myself, have cried several times listening to music. Only those who have emotions can cry. I got you, don’t worry about that.”
He further said: “These girls–no one can stop them. They are independent; not only men but women too earn. They earn and can enjoy themselves. You are insulting her, you are insulting the daughter of the country.”
Diljit’s video also featured snippets of other women tearing up during his concerts. One attendee shared, “I cried. I didn’t hesitate to shed tears. I saw that people were trolling a girl, who was crying. But, I attended the concert, it came out naturally. It is completely natural to cry guys.”
Netizens praise Diljit
The singer’s gesture earned praise online. One user commented, “Just the fact that he acknowledged that girl crying and addressed it, speaks so much about him being an actual human being before anything else, Grow up guys there’s life beyond memes.”
Another user commented, “Artist taking a stand for his fan. What a man!”
“Imagine being so surpressed by the society that you end up trolling someone for having EMOTIONS. Tum bhi rolo yaar, world will be a better place,” read another comment.
Diljit’s Dil-Luminati India Tour is set to conclude in December.
