Punjabi musician Diljit Dosanjh takes the stage to make his Coachella Valley Music & Art Festival debut in 2023 as the first-ever Indian performer.
On Saturday, Diljit Dosanjh gave a performance at the Coachella music festival, captivating the crowd with his enthusiasm and vocal prowess. The singer is the first Punjabi talent to take the stage at a well-known festival. Pictures and videos from the festival show him getting everyone, including Diplo, to dance to his music.
The actor-singer dressed traditionally as a Punjabi for the live performance in a black Kurta and Tamba for the special show. Coachella’s official Twitter account shared a preview of Diljit’s performance with their followers earlier today. In addition to it, Diljit posted a number of pictures from his Coachella backstage activities. He can be seen in the photos sporting a stylish black hat and a blue co-ord outfit.
The Coachella music festival, which takes place over two weeks in California, is among the most successful music festivals in the world. This year’s event has an intriguing lineup of performers including South Asian talent and Pakistani singer Ali Sethi. Along with him, there are other foreign musicians including BLACKPINK, Kid Laroi, Charli XCX, Labrinth, Jai Wolf, Joy Crookes, Jai Paul, Frank Ocean, and Underworld.
DJ Diplo and his friends can be seen dancing at the concert in a video posted to Diljit’s Instagram Stories. Fans called it a historic moment. One fan remarked, “Historic night in California and proud, inspiring, moment for Panjab and the entire diaspora worldwide.” “Punjabi artist exhibiting Punjabi culture & bringing pride to our pagh (turban) - nothing better,” another fan wrote. “This means so much to so many. Truly brings tears to the eyes. A God-gifted moment,” said another.
