Did Diljit Dosanjh take a dig at Telangana Government for censorship over his songs on ‘alcohol’?

The much-appreciated performer Diljit Dosanjh has been in the news for the much talked about Dil-Luminati Tour in India. As per the show’s schedule, he was recently in Hyderabad for his performance. Even before the show could start, the Telangana Government had issued a notice in which they had stated that, the songs (read ‘the lyrics’) containing any songs that promote alcohol, drugs, and violence won’t be permitted.

Not the one to object to the issued rules and regulations, Diljit Dosanjh came up with an amicable way to the same. While he was performing to his very popular track Lemonade, he simply tweaked the lyrics in order to suit the taste of the said rules and regulations by the Telangana Government.

But, Diljit Dosanjh being the person that he is, put across his point about the laid rules, regulations and objections! He said, "Koi baahar se kalakaar aayega…woh jo marzi gaa ke jaaye, jo marzee karey, koi tension nahi hai. Lekin apnaa kalakaar gaa rahaa hai, usmein tang pareshaani, taang adaani hai. Par main bhi ek baat bata doon eh Dosanjhan vala bugge, main nahi chhadda”/

The aforesaid, in English, gets translated as, ‘If an artist/s comes from outside the nation, they can sing anything, perform anything, there are absolutely no problems. But when an Indian artist’s sings, then they have a problem; they have to interfere. But let me tell/ assure you (that) I am also Diljit and I won't let this slip by.

The aforesaid lines were said by the star performer Diljit Dosanjh in front of the jam-packed audience, who had come to attend his Dil-Luminati Tour in Hyderabad. A video of the same is soon going viral and has taken the internet by storm.

Even though one could not figure out or understand as to who or whom was he hinting at, Diljit Dosanjh did make it a point to mention that, there are a few people who could not even digest that how these big shows were happening and how the tickets were being sold out in just a couple of minutes.

In the same breath, Diljit Dosanjh said that, he has been working tirelessly since a long time and that he did not attain name and fame in a single day!
