Diljit Dosanjh, known for his electrifying performances during the Dil-Luminati tour, recently paused his Ahmedabad concert to address an unusual scene. Fans who couldn’t secure or afford the high-priced tickets had booked hotel rooms near the venue to enjoy the performance from their balconies.
Diljit’s Playful Reaction Mid-Concert
In a video circulating on social media, Diljit is seen performing when he suddenly glances up and notices fans watching from a nearby hotel balcony. Amused, he paused the performance, signaling his team to stop, and addressed the fans. With a mix of humor and astonishment, he remarked:
“Yeh jo hotel ki balcony mein baithe hai, aap ka toh bara accha bhi hoya. Yeh hotel waale game kar gaye. Without tickets, huh?”
He acknowledged how the hotels had cleverly profited from his concert’s popularity, allowing fans to enjoy the show without purchasing tickets.

Netizens React with Humor
The video quickly gained traction online, prompting a wave of humorous responses. Many users pointed out that the cost of hotel rooms was likely higher than the concert tickets. Comments like “Gujarat hai wo paaji… it’s all about business” and “Bhai 1 lakh 1 night price tha” showcased how fans admired the ingenuity of Gujaratis in finding alternative ways to enjoy the concert.
Diljit Addresses Controversy Over Songs About Alcohol and Drugs
During the same concert, Diljit also addressed a notice he received from the Telangana Government, advising him to refrain from singing songs related to alcohol and drugs. Acknowledging Gujarat’s status as a dry state, Diljit humorously remarked that he wouldn’t perform such songs there. However, he added that he would completely stop singing about alcohol and drugs only if all states imposed a nationwide alcohol ban. He questioned the practicality of this, highlighting alcohol’s significant contribution to the country’s revenue, even during the lockdown. Diljit also clarified that unlike some actors, he doesn’t promote alcohol brands in advertisements and urged critics to refrain from targeting him unnecessarily.
Fans Praise Diljit’s Wit and Humor
Fans admired Diljit’s candidness and ability to address both lighthearted and serious matters during his performance. What do you think about Diljit’s reaction to fans watching his concert from hotel balconies?
