Delhi based athlete alleges Diljit Dosanjh's concert left behind a trail of destruction; 'people had alcohol, danced and partied...': video inside

Singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh created waves in the National Capital over the weekend, with his Dil-Lumanati tour in India. There were two shows in Delhi - On October 26 and October 27. This concert took place at a packed Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. There was approximately a crowd of around 40,000 people who attended the show. However, it seems like the same has left behind a trail of chaos, as Delhi-based athlete Beant Singh said that the stadium was left vandalised by Diljit’s fans, including litter, alcohol bottles, and heaps of garbage.

Beant Singh shared a video, giving a glimpse into the mess. He said, “Indian athletes have been shown their level (aukat). Budding athletes practice here but people had alcohol, danced and partied at this place. Due to this, the stadium will remain closed for 10 days. The athletics equipment like the hurdles have been broken and thrown here and there."

“This is the situation of sport, sportspersons and stadiums in India. There will be geniuses who will point out once in four years that medals do not come in the Olympics. This is because there is no respect and support for sportspersons in this country", he added.
Meanwhile, as videos from the Delhi show went viral, Diljit's 'Chamkila' director Imtiaz Ali showered praise on him.
Imtiaz took to Instagram and shared a video of Diljit, as he wrote, "Rocking the country."
For those not in the know, Diljit essayed the role of Amar Singh Chamkila in his biopic which was directed by Imtiaz Ali. Parineeti Chopra played his wife Amarjot Chamkila and the film got immense love from critics and the audience.
During his Delhi show itself, Diljit spoke about his mother and revealed why Punjabi is his first language. He had said while speaking to the audience, "When I was born my mother spoke in Punjabi. I learnt Punjabi first. Our country has different languages and I respect them a lot, be it Gujarati, or Marathi. Some speak Kannada, Telugu, and Hindi, and I respect them very much. But because my mother speaks Punjabi, so I too speak Punjabi. So I say Punjabi Aa Gaye Delhi Oye."

After Delhi, Diljit will now be travelling to Jaipur where his show is scheduled on November 3, followed by Chandigarh, Guwahati, Pune, Indore, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Lucknow, Hyderabad and Ahmedabad.
