Popular Indian Influencer Saumya Sahni, having 102k followers on the Instagram handle, has severely criticized celebrated Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh for charging exorbitant amounts, ranging over Rs.15 to 25 thousand, for concert tickets in his own country, where, as per her, poverty is one of the biggest challenges. In case the readers are not aware, Diljit has lately announced a Dil-Luminati Tour in India as well, whose tickets sold out, already in a few minutes.

In case the readers are not aware, Diljit will be performing in Delhi, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Pune, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Indore, Chandigarh, and Guwahati.

Bringing up the topic of concert ticket prices, influencer, Saumya Sahni took to her Instagram account and shared a video. In it, the influencer said that an Indian artist should not keep his conviction prices so high, as India's economy is not very stable at the moment. Indians have very limited means to entertainment and considering that, Diljit should have kept the concert prices low. In Saumya's words: "Ek Indian artiste ka koi haq nahi banta ki woh 20-25 hazar rupaye ek concert ke charge kare jab woh six cities play kar rahe hai. Woh teen sets play kar sakte hai. Kyunki aapke core audience ke paas paisa nahi hai, employment nahi hai, ek bohut hi limited means of entertainment hai. Bohot hi kam artistes hai joh iss desh ke liye, unki language mein perform kar pate hain. Aur uske baad ek middle-class insaan ka koi access nahi hai us artiste tak."

Soumya added that Diljit's target audience are mainly kids, middle-class families and regional fan base who understand his language. So, how could he charge such an obnoxious amount in this economy? He is earning well overseas, so he could have spared his own countrymen with cheaper ticket prices. Saumya further added:

 

"It is very wild to me that an artiste jiska concert bachche bhi dekhne jaa sakte hain, ek middle class family dekhne jaa sakti thi... they make so much money overseas that they could exempt these things for the country. Like bahar artiste ke sau-dedh sau dollar ke ticket hote hain, ki bas utna hi jitna ek set up ke liye chahiye. Lollapalooza ke passes kitne kam ke hain eine bade lineup ke baad bhi. 15K for a concert? In this economy? In this country?"
