Diljit Dosanjh’s October 30 Delhi concert at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium gets police permission
Delhi Police has granted permission for Diljit Dosanjh’s Delhi concert, scheduled for October 30 at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium.

Earlier, BookMyShow had also confirmed in a statement that reports of permission being denied for the concert were incorrect.

“BookMyShow Live has since held a cordial and constructive meeting with Delhi Police and presented a detailed plan addressing the required arrangements. We have assured the authorities of full compliance with all applicable security, traffic and crowd-management requirements. Following these discussions and the submission of the requisite plan, permission for the event has been reconsidered and issued. The concert is proceeding as planned, and fans can look forward to being part of the experience,” the statement further reads.

About the Threat to Diljit’s Mumbai Concert
A shocking report by FPJ claimed that fresh threats allegedly targeting Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan and actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh had been issued. The report said that Big B’s Jalsa house in Juhu is a target, while Diljit Dosanjh’s concert venue in Mumbai is also under threat.
Diljit is bringing his ongoing Aura World Tour to India, with seven shows planned across November and December. The announcement comes after the singer’s massive Dil-Luminati Tour in 2024. Diljit has spent much of the year taking the Aura World Tour through Europe and North America. He will now bring the show back to Indian audiences, something he says comes with its own feeling.
