Diljit Dosanjh Faces Legal Complaint Over Alcohol-Themed Songs at Ludhiana Concert

Chandigarh professor criticizes the singer's lyrics for promoting alcohol and vows to escalate the matter to court if necessary.

Singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh's New Year's Eve concert in Ludhiana has drawn legal scrutiny following a complaint about his songs referencing alcohol.
Chandigarh-based professor Panditrao Dharenavar filed the complaint, citing concerns about the impact of such songs on young and impressionable audiences.
The Punjab Women and Child Development Department issued a notice to Ludhiana's deputy commissioner, urging action to prevent these songs from being performed, even with altered lyrics.
The complaint references a 2019 Punjab and Haryana High Court ruling prohibiting songs promoting alcohol, drugs, or violence at public events.
Dosanjh, who previously promised to stop singing about alcohol if India enacts a nationwide liquor ban, has faced similar controversies during his ongoing Dil-Luminati tour.
