Indian singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh has revealed that he faced racist comments upon arriving in Australia for his Aura World Tour, with some people calling him a “cab driver” and “7- 11 employee.”

In a new behind- the- scenes (BTS) video shared on his YouTube channel ,the Amar Singh Chamkila actor offered fans a glimpse of his preparations for his Sydney concert and spoke about the racist comments he encountered. “When I landed in Australia, paparazzi clicked pictures. Later, I saw people commenting things like, ‘the new Uber driver is here’ or ‘7- 11 employee has landed,’” Diljit said.

Despite the remarks, the Jatt and Juliet 3 actor maintained his calm, saying he feels no anger or resentment. “I don't mind being compared to cab or truck drivers. If truck drivers cease to exist, you won’t even get bread at home. My love goes out to everyone, indeed those who make such comments, ” the 41-year-old singer added.
