Ahead of Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh’s ‘Dil-Luminati’ concert in Hyderabad on Friday, the Telangana government has served him a legal notice, directing him not to sing any songs promoting alcohol, drugs,and violence.
The notice was issued after a Chandigarh-based professor, Panditrao Dharenavar, filed a complaint against Dosanjh to prevent him from singing such songs at the live show.
According to the notice, issued on November 7 by the district welfare officer of the Department of Welfare of Women and Children, Disabled and Senior Citizens, Rangareddy district, video evidence was submitted by the complainant showing Diljit singing songs promoting alcohol,drugs, and violence during the live show at Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on October 26 and 27.
Earlier people also objected to how Diljit has been glorifying bad habits with his singing. In some songs there is vulgarity also.
