In today’s episode of Figuring Out, we have India’s music sensation, Diljit Dosanjh in conversation with Raj Shamani. He is one of the most loved Indian singers in India and globally. This is one of the most special podcasts we had on our channel.
In this episode, we talked about why he mentions Punjab and not India when he performs, how he represented India at Coachella, and the story behind Shah Rukh Khan telling Imtiaz Ali that Diljit Dosanjh is the best actor in India. We further talked about why SRK became a big brand and is loved by everyone, his experience meeting him, the story of him running away from home when he was 7 years old, and why he chose Karan Aujla to write the song G.O.A.T. He also shared stories from his childhood and how his perspective and life changed in 2020.
We further talked about why many artists don’t become successful after 5-7 years in their career and what is he doing right to stay relevant for so many years. We discussed why he works with new artists most of the time and how his music production changed after G.O.A.T. Towards the end, we talked about his love life, his first love, and his diet. He shared his experience performing at Ambani’s wedding and his current music tour. For more such interesting episodes, don’t forget to subscribe to our channel!
