Speaking to reporters on the green carpet, Singh praised Dosanjh’s journey, stating, “What Diljit has achieved is tremendous. Being from a Sikh family, we are incredibly proud to see him shine globally.”

In the wake of Dosanjh’s nomination for Best Playback Singer for his work in the film ‘Dunki’, Singh reflected on the artist’s unwavering characteristics. “He’s still the same person I knew back then—hardworking, honest, and somewhat introverted. He hasn’t changed much; he’s always been serious and focused,” Yo Yo Honey Singh noted.
The evening was also marked by an exciting announcement regarding a documentary about Singh’s life, set to release on Netflix later this year.
“You should definitely keep an eye out for my documentary,” he revealed. “It’s going to be a world release across 200 countries, and the editing is currently underway. It dives deep into who I really am, so I hope everyone watches it.”
