Diljit Dosanjh's Ahmedabad Concert Faces Fresh Restrictions After Indore Controversy

Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh‘s upcoming Ahmedabad concert has drawn the attention of local authorities, with officials seeking restrictions on the songs he can perform during the show. The concert, scheduled for November 21, 2026, at Narendra Modi Stadium, is facing objections over tracks allegedly containing references to alcohol, drugs and weapons. The latest development comes shortly after Diljit Dosanjh faced a bomb threat ahead of his Indore concert, bringing further attention to the arrangements surrounding his live performances.

According to reports, Ahmedabad’s District Child Protection Officer (DCPO) wrote to the city’s Police Commissioner on November 5, requesting that four songs be kept out of the concert setlist. The communication followed a complaint filed by Chandigarh-based professor Dr Panditrao Dharenavar, who has previously raised concerns about music that he believes promotes substance use and violence.

Diljit Dosanjh Ahmedabad Concert: Four Songs Flagged By Child Protection Officer

The four tracks identified in the complaint are Patiala Pegg

, 5 Taara Theeke, Jeeb Vicho Feem Labbiya and Jatt Uthe Fire Karda Jithe Pabandi Hathiyara Di. The DCPO’s letter reportedly argues that performances featuring songs glorifying alcohol and drug consumption should be restricted in accordance with the objectives of the Centre’s Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyaan.

The request also states that changing or modifying the lyrics would not be sufficient to address the concerns surrounding these songs. Authorities have been asked to ensure that the identified tracks are not included in Diljit Dosanjh’s performance at the Ahmedabad venue.

The communication further refers to an observation made by the Punjab and Haryana High Court on July 22, 2019. The court had expressed concerns about songs that glorify liquor, narcotics and violence, and called for restrictions on their promotion, including through public performances. The concerns raised in the latest complaint are therefore linked to the potential influence such content could have on younger audiences.

Ahmedabad Concert Complaint Also Raises Concerns About Children’s Safety

Apart from the proposed restrictions on the setlist, the complaint has highlighted possible risks for children attending the concert. One of the requests is that Diljit Dosanjh should not invite children onto the stage during his performance.

The concern centres on the concert’s sound levels and lighting arrangements. The complaint points to sound exposure that could exceed 120 decibels, potentially putting children’s hearing at risk. It also flags flashing stage lights as a possible trigger for seizures in susceptible individuals.

These requests place the focus on both the content of the performance and the environment in which the concert will take place. The November 21 show is scheduled to be held at Narendra Modi Stadium, with the authorities being asked to take the concerns into consideration ahead of the event.
