Diljit Dosanjh Becomes 1st Indian Artist To Feature On Billboard Canada; Will It Fix India-Canada Relationship

Diljit Dosanjh, a renowned singer and actor, has achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first Indian artist to grace the cover of Billboard Canada's inaugural print edition. This special issue will feature exclusive photos of the Punjabi star, along with behind-the-scenes content from his Dil-Luminati tour.

Billboard Canada's official Instagram account announced this historic moment, stating, "Diljit Dosanjh will make global history as the first Indian artist to be featured cover-to-cover in a special edition of Billboard (@billboardca). It marks a monumental moment for the iconic publication. Pre-order link in bio (sic)." Fans can secure their copies individually or as part of a box set with four different covers, including a surprise edition to be unveiled in December.

Indians living abroad and Diljit Dosanjh fans in India are seeing this historic achievement as a ray of hope, which might fix India and Canada's souring diplomatic relationship. Recently, Canada leveled baseless allegations on India of plotting Khalistan leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar's murder. However, the allegations were junked by Indian MEA spokesperson.
