Diljit Dosanjh reacts after landing in row for asking girl to 'take down' tricolour at Coachella

Diljit Dosanjh has retaliated against trolls for spreading "fake news" and "negativity" about him after becoming the first Indian singer to perform at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in 2023. His response came soon after a few Twitter accounts claimed that Diljit had allegedly requested a female to "take down" the Indian flag as he mingled with the audience at his Coachella performance.

A Twitter user shared a video, captioning it, "Diljit Dosanjh accused a girl of inciting hatred by waving Indian flag during a music performance in America. He said, 'Don't spread hate, music belongs to everyone, not one country @diljitdosanjh Do you have no respect for Indian tricolour?'"
