Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh reacted to an advisory issued by the Maharashtra government ahead of performance for his Dil-Luminati tour in Mumbai on Thursday evening. Hours before his concert, Diljit and his management received a notice from Maharashtra State Commission for Protection of Child Rights which restricted him from performing on songs which promote drugs, violence and alcohol. It also prohibited him from making use of children on stage.
Reacting to it, Diljit said during his performance, "Maine kal poocha apne team se kuch advisory toh nahi hai mere khilaaf. Bola sab thik hai. Aaj subah utha toh pata chala advisory jaari ho chuki hai. Par aap fikar na kare, saare advisory mere par hai, aap jitna mazaa karne aaye hai main uska double karwaunga. (Last evening I asked my team if there has been any advisory issued against me. They said there is none. But this morning when I woke up I got to know that an advisory had been issued. But you have nothing to worry about. All advisories are for me and I will ensure you have double the fun than what you imagined)."
He added, "No matter how much poison people want to throw at you, you should not take that inside. Log aapko rokenge, tokenge, people will try to stop you, but you should never let that disturb you."

Taking to his Instagram story, Diljit shared a video of his performance and wrote, "I rise above your advice."
Ahead of speaking about the notice, Diljit spoke about his recent visit to Kashmir and shared that the state is a must visit and is "swarg" (heaven).
So far, Diljit has performed in Mumbai, Chandigarh, Pune, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Lucknow, Ahmedabad, Delhi, Indore, and Jaipur. He will next perform in Guwahati.
Diljit has been constantly making headlines due to his controversial statements during his performances.
During his Chandigarh concert (December 14), the singer shocked fans by claiming that he will not be performing in India due to the poor infrastructure for LIVE shows and urged authorities to arrange better facilities. However, he later clarified that he never said he wouldn't perform in India, explaining that his remarks were solely about issues with the venue in Chandigarh.
