Earlier, Diljit scripted history with his appearance on 'The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon' as the first Indian artist to perform on the iconic late-night show. It set a new benchmark for the 'Born to Shine' hitmaker. In 2023, Diljit became the first-ever South Asian artist to headline the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Diljit was last seen in ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’. Helmed by Imtiaz Ali, 'Amar Singh Chamkila' presents the untold true story of Punjab's original rockstar of the masses, who emerged from the shadows of poverty and rose to the heights of popularity in the 80s due to the sheer power of his music, angering many along the way, which finally led to his assassination at the young age of 27.
Diljit was previously seen in the film ‘Crew’ alongside Tabu, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Kriti Sanon. It follows the misadventures of three flight attendants embroiled in a daring gold smuggling scheme. Diljit plays the role of a customs officer as well as Kriti’s love interest. A sequel has been proposed for 'Crew,' producer Rhea Kapoor told Variety. He is currently receiving praise for his recent release, 'Jatt and Juliet 3,' co-starring Neeru Bajwa is also a part of the film.
