Punjabi actor and singer Diljit Dosanjh recently received praise from New Jersey Governor, Phil Murphy, for having a sold-out show in the US state. Murphy called it a ‘big moment for the Punjabi community.’
Sharing a video of Dosanjh in which various audience members were seen gushing over the singer, Murphy wrote, “Thank you, @diljitdosanjh for bringing your tour to New Jersey with a sold-out show at @PruCenter last night. Diljit’s success in the US is a big moment for the Punjabi community, including thousands of New Jerseyans who grew up dancing to his music.”
Check out Murphy’s post here:
He concluded his note with a line in Punjabi which has become popular ever since Dosanjh first used it during his Coachella concert earlier: “Punjabi aa gaye!” (the Punjabis are here!).
Later, Diljit replied to Murphy’s post with folded hands emoji.
On the work front, apart from his concerts, Diljit was recently seen as the lead in Imtiaz Ali’s Netflix film, Amar Singh Chamkila. Also starring Parineeti Chopra, the film boasts of music by AR Rahman.
