"Punjabian Nu Na Sikhaao Ladaayia Kida Ladnaa" (Don't teach Punjabis how to fight. There was music, and there was a message as Diljit Dosanjh took the stage at Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Friday evening.
The Punjabi singer and actor treated fans to his chart-topping hits but also took a brief pause to indirectly address the controversy surrounding his "I'm an artist, bro" remark.
A few months ago, during an Instagram Live session, Diljit Dosanjh was reportedly asked to react to the protest led by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) in Delhi. The singer had reportedly responded, "Bro, keep me away from protests and such things. I am an artist, bro. I am not a politician."
Diljit's remarks did not go down well with CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke, who criticised the 'GOAT' singer over his comments.
@alazygooner@mattspicer66 Exactly!! So you dont need to have watched Dhyan Chand/MJ/Maradonna to have an opinion. Again I am not saying any of them are, they do have a right to claim that tag based on what they have done in their respective sport. Also, all these claims always have a recency bias.
@alazygooner@mattspicer66 So how can you say Messi is the GOAT in football? You do know that tag comes with "all time" meaning better than anyone ever played the sport, including those you havent watched?
@alazygooner@mattspicer66 For that he has to be the best at football. So no :P
Even so, there are many in team sports who can claim that title, Brady, Jordan, Dhyan Chand, to name a few
@alazygooner A lot of times teams play their best penalty taker for the 5th. It works both ways, your best scores the first and calms the nerves, misses and causes havoc
