Netizens think Vishal Dadlani called Jasleen Royal a ‘bad singer'

Vishal Dadlani took to his Instagram stories and wrote, "I'm really sorry, but when you put a basic-to-bad singer in front of a large crowd on a large stage, all you're doing is showing more people that the individual can't really sing, and that sadly, systems within labels in India aren't geared towards really promoting the best we have. I've just seen some clips, and my gosh… How embarrassing!"

Who is he referring to here?

As the post went viral, a section of Reddit users pointed out that the message was directed at Jasleen Royal. One user wrote, "Seems like he is referring to Jasleen Royal's performance during Coldplay's concert in Mumbai."

Another added, "I absolutely loathe Jasleen Royal. That girl cannot sing. She can whisper words but that's not singing imo. I agree with Vishal here if he's referring to her. There are better artists that deserve such a huge opportunity."

One user commented, "Jasleen was atrocious. How does she even get a gig is beyond me, such a horrible singer. Like what's with that baby voice she does?"

Jasleen is well-known for songs like 'Nit Nit' and 'Sang Rahiyo.' She has carved a niche in the music industry, showcasing her versatility as a composer, singer, and songwriter.

Coldplay delivers an unforgettable performance

Plenty of moments resonated deeply with fans as Coldplay conducted their 'Music of the Spheres World Tour' in India. For two hours at the packed stadium, Martin belted out chartbuster tracks like "Paradise", "Viva La Vida", "Adventure of a Lifetime", "Yellow", "Fix You", and "A Sky Full of Stars", among others. The band will now head to Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium for their show on January 25.
