With the last day of the year 2024 knocking on the door, Punjabis are all set to welcome the New Year in the much-awaited Diljit Dosanjh's Ludhiana Concert. Diljit Dosanjh will conclude his famous Dil-Luminati India Tour 2024 with a grand finale concert at the PAU football ground in Ludhiana. Diljit's Ludhiana concert tickets have already been sold out and the show is expected to start on New Year's eve i.e. December 31 from 8:30 pm (IST) onwards. With Punjab has been buzzing over Diljit Dosanjh's 'homecoming' Ludhiana Concert, there are a few VVIP guests and celebrities are expected to attend the event.
One of the top names who may attend Diljit Dosanjh's Ludhiana concert is Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann. Punjab CM Bhagwant Singh Mann along with his wife Gurpreet Kaur are expected to attend the event. Notably, before the Chandigarh Concert, Diljit Dosanjh met Punjab CM Mann and his family at his official residence in Chandigarh. It was after his meeting that reports started to surface that the 40-year-old singer would perform in Ludhiana.
Apart from CM Mann, Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha may also attend the event along with his wife & actress Parineeti Chopra. Interestingly, if this happens, the fans may witness the reunion of Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra after their superhit movie Amar Singh Chamkila. Furthermore, if Bollywood actress Parineeti Chopra attends the event, it is possible that the actress and Diljit may together sing songs of Chamkila.
Notably, Parineeti's love for singing especially in live concerts is a well-known fact. Furthermore, Punjab CM Bhagwant Singh Mann's close confidante & actor Karamjit Anmol may also attend the event. Karamjit Anmol is a close friend of CM Mann who hails from Gandua village of Sangrur district. CM Mann and Anmol have also shared the stage in the past and they have also sung together during a public event.
It is pertinent to mention here that the organisers have not issued any statement that whether there will be any surprise guests who will attend the show. However, the Ludhiana Police have heightened the security to manage the law and order of the city with 30,000 to 40,000 fans expected to attend the event.
Diljit Dosanjh on Dr. Manmohan Singh
In the meanwhile, Diljit on December 29, 2024, dedicated his Guwahati concert to late former Indian Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh. The actor-singer took to his Instagram on Sunday and shared a video from his show. In the video, Diljit paid a moving tribute to the former PM, and said that Manmohan Singh was a man of grace, who always conducted himself in a sophisticated manner, and never answered anyone in an uncivilised manner.
He said, “Today's concert is dedicated to former late Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. He led a very simple life. He never used to answer back or talk ill which is quite immpossible in a profession like politics”. He then went on to say a shayari once used by MMS, as he said, "Hazaron jawabon se meri khamoshi acchi, na jane kitne sawalo ki aabru dhak leti hai”. The superstar urged the youth including himself to learn such etiquettes from him.
