Diljit Dosanjh
Los Angeles

The Coachella Moment That Changed Everything

On April 15, 2023, Diljit Dosanjh walked onto the Coachella stage in Indio, California, clad in a traditional black kurta-tamba with matching turban and sneakers, and delivered a set that went viral worldwide. He performed hits from “Patiala Peg” to “G.O.A.T.,” drawing ecstatic crowds that included American DJ Diplo, who was filmed enthusiastically bhangra-dancing. It was the first time an artist had performed an entire Coachella set in Punjabi, and it proved Diljit’s central belief: “Music is a universal language… it knows no boundaries.” That Southern California moment launched a new chapter of global stardom—and his return to the region at Crypto.com Arena completes a full-circle journey.

LA’s South Asian Community and the Diljit Effect

Greater Los Angeles is home to one of the largest South Asian populations in the United States, with thriving Punjabi and Sikh communities in neighborhoods stretching from Artesia (“Little India”) to the Inland Empire and throughout the San Fernando Valley. Diljit’s concerts in the LA market draw from this vast diaspora while also pulling in music fans of every background who were introduced to his sound through Coachella, streaming playlists, and collaborations with Sia (“Hass Hass”), Anne-Marie (“Peaches”), Ed Sheeran, and Jackson Wang. The result is one of the most diverse, electrifying concert crowds in North America.

A Bollywood and Film Star

Diljit’s talent extends to the screen, and LA’s entertainment industry has taken notice. His Punjabi films Jatt & Juliet (2012) and its sequels rank among the highest-grossing Punjabi movies in history, while Punjab 1984 (2014) won him a National Film Award. His Bollywood debut in Udta Punjab (2016) earned a Filmfare Award, the 2019 comedy Good Newwz was a massive box-office hit, and his 2024 Netflix biopic Amar Singh Chamkila, directed by Imtiaz Ali, drew critical acclaim for his portrayal of the legendary Punjabi singer. Diljit has also walked the 2025 Met Gala and appeared on The Tonight Show, further cementing his status in the U.S. entertainment landscape. Explore his career at Britannica.
