He gave musical Eidi to his fans with the song that he added to his reel. He crooned the soulful lyrics in Punjabi, showing gratitude for "Allah's" blessings.
The comment section under Diljit's post has been flooded with heartfelt reactions.
Meanwhile, on the acting front, Diljit is coming up with 'Amar Singh Chamkila' on April 12 on OTT.
Helmed by renowned filmmaker Imtiaz Ali, the film promises to delve deep into the life and legacy of the legendary Punjabi artist, Amar Singh Chamkila, with Diljit essaying the role of the singer and Parineeti portraying his wife, Amarjot.
Speaking about the journey of creating Amar Singh Chamkila, Imtiaz Ali said, "Stories of young musicians that challenge the norms of society, who see unprecedented success and then have violent ends is, unfortunately, a worldwide phenomenon. The life and times of Chamkila raised important questions for society but ultimately it is a celebration of the life of an artist, the story of a musician who could never give up his first love - music."
