He said: "Maine kal poocha apne team se kuch advisory toh nahi hai mere khilaaf. Bola sab thik hai. Aaj subah utha toh pata chala advisory jaari ho chuki hai mere khilaaf. Par aap fikar na kare, saare advisory mere par hai, aap jitna maza karne aayae mai uska double karwaunga (Last evening I asked my team if there has been any advisory issued against me. They said there is none. But this morning when I woke up I got to know that an advisory had been issued. But you have nothing to worry about. All advisories are for me and I will ensure you have double the fun than what you imagined)."

Diljit said that during the event of Sagar Manthan, the amrit (holy nectar) was consumed by the Devtas, while Lord Shiva took the poison. However, instead of consuming the poison, Shiva kept it in his throat.

The singer mentioned, “What I have learnt from this is no matter how much poison people want to throw at you, you should not take that inside. People will try to stop you, but you should never let that affect you or your work." 

Diljit also paid tribute to Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2 by recreating his iconic move and saying, “Aaj jhukega nahi…” adding a playful touch to his performance.

Additionally, the Maharashtra State Commission for Protection of Child Rights sent a notice advising him not to bring children on stage during the event.

During his India tour, Diljit performed in several cities, including Chandigarh, Pune, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Lucknow, Ahmedabad, Delhi, Indore, and Jaipur. The tour will conclude with his performance in Guwahati.
