New Delhi: Diljit Dosanjh is a name that is in the news from India to Canada. Once again this name is in the news in Canada. Because Diljit Dosanjh has been aiming for global domination for many years. The Punjabi singer-actor recently rocked the US by performing on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, created history at Coachella and rocked the North American box office with the Punjabi romantic comedy Jatt & Juliet 3. Now he has his eyes on Canada.
Diljit performed to a packed hall at Toronto’s Rogers Centre in Canada last weekend. He created history again as he became the first Punjabi artist to fill the venue. Diljit shared excerpts of his performance on popular tracks like Born to Shine on Instagram Stories and the huge crowd applauded him.
Shared the stage with Trudeau
He also shared a video on his feed in which Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau surprised him. Dressed in a white T-shirt and brown pants, Justin met Diljit before the show. Dressed in a yellow striped shirt and a red turban, Diljit was overjoyed to meet the Canadian Prime Minister and expressed his happiness by hugging him. Justin also met Diljit’s team and crew and he asked Diljit and Justin to cheer on the singer’s trademark line, “Punjabi aa gaye oye”.
Trudeau shared the video
Diljit shared the video and wrote, ‘Diversity is the strength of Canada. PM Trudeau came to witness history being made: we sold out all the tickets at Rogers Centre!’ Justin also shared the same video on his Instagram feed, along with another carousel post of pictures with Diljit and his team. He wrote in that caption, “Stopped in at Rogers Centre to wish Diljit good luck before his show. Canada is a great country – where a boy from Punjab can make history and sell out all the tickets in stadiums. Diversity is not just our strength. It is a superpower.’
