Diljit Dosanjh declared Guwahati concert to ex-PM Manmohan Singh
On December 30, Dosanjh dedicated his concert in Guwahati to former prime minister Manmohan Singh, who breathed his last on December 26.
The singer-actor on Instagram shared a video from Sunday’s concert in which he spoke about the lessons he believes people should learn from Singh.
“Today’s Concert is dedicated to Dr Manmohan Singh Ji. DIL-LUMINATI TOUR Year 24,” he captioned the post.
In the clip, Dosanjh recalled how Singh would never speak ill about anyone even if someone did so towards him.
“He lived a very simple life. If I look at the journey of his life, it was so simple. Even if someone talked ill about him, he never reverted in the same manner. In politics, it’s the toughest thing to avoid,” he is heard saying in the video.
