Speaking about breaking the Punjabi stereotype, Diljit heard saying in Punjabi.

He said, "They said Punjabis can't do fashion and I said, I will show you. They said Punjabis can't act in films, I showed them I could. They said Punjabis can't go to Mumbai, and I proved them wrong. They said Punjabis can't sell tickets for the bar arena, I showed them the stadium packed at my concert."

Announcing his Vancouver concert, he wrote, "DIL-LUMINATI TOUR 27th April BC STADIUM VANCOUVER. 2 Weeks To GO."
