Indian singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh, renowned for his contributions to Punjabi and Hindi cinema, recently addressed social media trolls who mocked female fans for getting emotional during his Jaipur concert. Diljit, who is currently on his global Dil-Luminati tour, stood up for his fans, showcasing his heartfelt connection with them.
Viral Emotional Moment Sparks Trolls
During his Jaipur performance earlier this month, videos surfaced showing female fans overcome with emotion, shedding tears as they watched the star perform. While the videos went viral, they also attracted trolls who ridiculed the fans for crying at the concert.
Diljit’s Heartfelt Response to Trolls
At his Hyderabad show, Diljit responded directly to the online trolls. He expressed that music evokes deep emotions and that crying is a natural and valid response to such powerful experiences.
“It’s okay; it’s okay to cry. Music is an emotion; it has a smile, it has a dance, it fights, it has a fall, it cries. I have also cried a lot listening to music. Only those who have emotions can cry. I got you, I got you, don’t you worry about that. These girls—no one can stop them. They are independent; not only men but women earn, too. They earn and can enjoy themselves”
He also added,
“Inna da apmaan karrahe ho, tussi desh di beti da apmaan karrae ho, main tenu das diya gal (You are insulting her, you are insulting the daughter of the country, I’m telling you)”

Dil-Luminati Tour, Year 24.” The video resonated with fans, who flooded social media with messages of love and appreciation for the singer’s supportive stance.
There is smile, dance, bhangra, gidda and even crying in it. I myself have cried several times after listening to music. Only those people who have emotions can cry. I got you, don’t you worry about that. No one should stop a girl. They are independent; not only men but women earn, too. They earn and can enjoy themselves.”
