From Shoutouts to Showdowns: Diljit Dosanjh and AP Dhillon’s Public Clash
Sanskar Savvy dives into the growing tension between Punjabi music icons Diljit Dosanjh and AP Dhillon. What began as a friendly shoutout has spiraled into an online feud, captivating fans and the music industry alike.
A Shoutout Gone Awry
During his Indore concert, Diljit Dosanjh gave a warm shoutout to fellow artists AP Dhillon and Karan Aujla, wishing them luck on their India tours. He said, “Mere aur do bhaiyon ne tour shuru kiya hai Karan Aujla aur AP Dhillon ne, unke liye bhi best of luck (Two of my brothers, Karan Aujla and AP Dhillon, have started their tours; best of luck to them).” His remarks celebrated the rise of independent music.
However, during his Chandigarh concert, AP Dhillon accused Diljit of blocking him on Instagram, saying, “First unblock me on Instagram and then talk to me. I’ve been working for three years. Have you ever seen me in any controversy?”
Social Media Sparks Fly
Diljit quickly denied the claim on Instagram, sharing a screenshot of AP Dhillon’s profile to show it was unblocked. “I never blocked you. Mere pange sarkaaran naal ho sakde aa kalaakaran naal ni.. (sic), (English translation: “My issues could be with the government, not with artists.”) he wrote.
In response, AP shared a screen recording appearing to confirm he had been blocked earlier and then unblocked. He added, “At least we know what’s real and what’s not,” fueling speculation and dividing fans.
Calls for Unity
The feud prompted rapper Badshah to appeal for reconciliation. Sharing a cryptic post, he wrote, “The world is ours for the taking. Like they say, ‘If you wanna go fast, go alone, but if you wanna go far, go together.’ United we stand.” His message highlighted the importance of unity among Punjabi artists.
Music Over Drama
Despite the controversy, both artists continue to dominate the stage. Diljit’s Dil-Luminati India Tour and AP Dhillon’s The Brownprint Tour have drawn huge crowds, showcasing the global appeal of Punjabi music.
Fans hope the feud will resolve soon, paving the way for collaboration and harmony in the independent music revolution. After all, the industry thrives when its stars shine together.
