Another thing that made Dosanjh everyone’s favourite was his gesture right before he stepped onto the stage. The singer prayed before entering the stage and was welcomed with a huge cheer from the fans amid fireworks. “Now it has been written in history. Punjabi aa gaye hum Coachella (Punjabis have reached Coachella). And those who don’t understand my songs, catch the vibe,” Dosanjh said on stage in Punjabi.

The singer-actor, who shuffles between India and Canada, performed his hit tracks such as ‘Jatt da Pyaar’, ‘Patiala peg’, and ‘Munda hunda dhuppa vich tan kudiye’. Throughout the performance, shots of Dosanjh’s previous concerts were playing on a big screen in the background on stage. He was accompanied by a live band and bhangra dance troupe during his close to the 45-minute-long set.
