Mumbai– Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh made waves with his striking debut at the Met Gala this year, turning heads while proudly representing his cultural roots. Now, he’s giving fans an exclusive look at the behind-the-scenes chaos and charm that went into his big night.
Taking to Instagram, Diljit shared a series of behind-the-scenes clips from his Met Gala experience, teasing fans with the caption: “BEHIND THE SCENE OUT NOW ON YOUTUBE.”
In the video, when asked if there was anyone at the Met Gala he was excited to meet, the Soorma star cheekily responded, “Don’t take me wrong, but I’m excited that everyone is going to look at me.”
