Early life
Diljit Dosanjh was born on 6 January 1984[6] to a Sikh [7] family in the village of
Dosanjh Kalan in Phillaur tehsil, Jalandhar district, Punjab, India. His father,
Balbir Singh, is a former employee of Punjab Roadways, and his mother, Sukhwinder
Kaur, is a homemaker. He has two siblings, one elder sister and one younger
brother.[8] He spent his early childhood in Dosanjh Kalan and then moved to
Ludhiana, Punjab from where he completed his formal education, including a high
school diploma from Shri Guru Harkrishan Public School. While still in school, he
began his singing career by performing Kirtan (Sikh religious music) at local
gurdwaras.
Dosanjh next starred in the social drama Udta Punjab (2016), his first Hindi film.
Directed by Abhishek Chaubey, the film deals with the subject of substance abuse in
the Indian province of Punjab.[27][28] Co-starring alongside Kareena Kapoor, Shahid
Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, Udta Punjab generated controversy when the Central Board of
Film Certification deemed that the film represented Punjab in a negative light and
demanded extensive censorship before its theatrical release.[29] The Bombay High
Court later cleared the film for exhibition with one scene cut.[30] Dosanjh also
sang the song "Ik Kudi" for the film.[31] In a highly positive review, The Hindu
said that Dosanjh was "successful" in delivering a "highly hitting performance".

As of September 2016, Dosanjh has completed work on his second Bollywood production
Phillauri, alongside Anushka Sharma and Suraj Sharma.[33] The film was released on
23 March 2017. It grossed over ?5 million in its box-office.[34] He's also working
on a film based on world war 1 which will be releasing in early 2018.The yet
untitled film will be based on World War I and he will play a soldier in it.[35] He
is all set to be the first turbaned Sikh to be honored with a wax statue at Madame
Tussauds.[36]
Artistry
Musical style and influences
Continually experimenting with new musical ideas and images, Dosanjh's musical and
performance style is the subject of analysis and scrutiny from critics.[37] Dosanjh
grew up learning music from Gobinder Singh Alampuri and Kartar Singh,[9] and his
initial work reflected their style.[38] His later collaboration with Honey Singh
lent a different dimension to his music. The composers Jaidev Kumar, Sukhpal Sukh,
Sachin Ahuja, Pavneet Birgi, Jassi Bros Bhinda Aujla, and Tru Skool have all
influenced him. His goal is to make a Punjabi song that becomes worldwide hit like
Korean single Gangnam Style.[39][40]
In 2019, Diljit will be seen in the Navdeep Singh directed movie Kaneda[48]
produced by Anushka Sharma.
