Rapper Nseeb Targets Diljit Dosanjh, Says He Doesn't Deserve To Be Called 'Punjabi', Singer REACTS

Punjabi rapper Nseeb sparked a beef with singer Diljit Dosanjh over his turban. The rapper, on Tuesday, took to Instagram and shared a picture of the Amar Singh Chamkila star sans his turban and objected to him being addressed as a ‘Punjabi.’ He also added that Diljit doesn’t know how to tie a turban and he should learn it. Diljit replied to the criticism on his Instagram Stories by sending him love and prayers.

It all began when Nseeb called out Diljit by commenting on one of the singer’s Instagram posts. Nseeb asked him how much did he get for selling his soul. Although Diljit did not react to it, Nseeb claimed that Diljit shared a motivational video as a cryptic reply to him. He then shared a picture allegedly of Diljit in short hair and wrote, “No, you are not Punjab. Go learn pagg kiwe bnidi aw,” referring to Diljit calling himself as Punjab on stage during his Dil-luminati Tour.

Diljit reacted to his call outs on his Instagram Stories. The singer-actor wrote, “Veere, baut pyar tuanu (Brother, love to you).” He hoped for Naseeb’s success and reflected on the divine presence of God in everyone. Nseeb replied, “I was only expressing my thoughts, I am going to delete it later.”

Questions are often raised about Diljit’s hair. Several photos from what seems to be his early days in the music industry, fans claimed Diljit had short hair. Diljit has not addressed the claims or the viral photos. Eyebrows were raised yet again when Diljit’s short hair look for Chamkila had been revealed.

Addressing his look in the film, Imtiaz told Radio Nasha, “I would not want to share his personal details, but yes, Diljit has worn a wig. That wig is like his turban only. He has not sacrificed a single hair for this film. Because he played a character and he knew how Chamkila looked, so he managed to look the part with a wig. He donned the look very sincerely and with very good intentions.”
