Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], December 23: Punjabi singer Karan Aujla left fans thrilled once again during his Mumbai concert on Sunday, this time by bringing fellow artist AP Dhillon on stage for an electrifying performance. The surprise collaboration between the two singers took place just days after Aujla’s concert on December 21, which had already created a buzz in the city. The event also saw the presence of Bollywood celebrities like Karan Johar and Neha Dhupia.
Following the performance, Dhillon shared a picture on his Instagram with the caption, “Mahol pura wavy,” to which Aujla humorously responded, “Neend ni aundi.”
This collaboration comes amid a public exchange between AP Dhillon and Diljit Dosanjh. Recently, Diljit had shared a message on social media where he gave a shoutout to both Aujla and Dhillon, wishing them luck for their tours. In his speech, Diljit spoke about the rise of independent music, acknowledging that challenges come with any revolution. “Problems will arise. When a revolution begins, challenges follow. We will continue doing our work,” Diljit said.
He also encouraged independent artists to work harder, adding, “The time for Indian music has arrived… earlier, foreign artists would sell their tickets at exorbitant rates, but now Indian artists’ tickets are selling out. This is what ‘vocal for local’ truly means.”
However, tensions flared when, during his Chandigarh show, Dhillon addressed Diljit, claiming, “First, unblock me on Instagram and then talk to me.” Dhillon accused Diljit of blocking him, which sparked a heated debate. Diljit denied the claim, sharing screenshots to prove he hadn’t blocked Dhillon. In response, AP Dhillon posted screen recordings backing his claim and further shared a note on Instagram stating, “At least we know what’s real and what’s not.”
This back-and-forth between Dhillon and Dosanjh comes at a time when both artists are enjoying immense success in their careers. Dhillon, known for blending Punjabi and Western music styles, continues to gain international recognition. Meanwhile, Diljit is concluding the Indian leg of his Dil-Luminati Tour, with his final performance in Guwahati scheduled for December 29.
