Diljit Dosanjh's upcoming Indore concert faces restrictions as authorities ban Patiala Peg, 5 Taara and two other songs

Four songs from Diljit Dosanjh's repertoire will not be permitted at his upcoming concert in Indore after authorities raised concerns about their potential influence on children.

According to an NDTV report, a notice issued on November 6 by the District Child Protection Officer under the Women and Child Development Department identified the tracks and instructed mall management to ensure they are not included in the performance.

Which songs are affected?

The notice names Patiala Peg, 5 Taara, Jeeb Vicho Afeem, also known as Case, and Jatt Uthe Fire Karda.

Authorities said the lyrics could have “a wrong influence on young children.” The concern is linked to the event's access policy, as children above the age of five are allowed to attend the concert.

Responsibility placed on event management

Mall management has been asked to make sure the four songs are left out of Dosanjh's set. The notice therefore places a direct responsibility on the venue management to implement the restriction during the show.

The action highlights the need for organisers to account for the presence of children when planning performances and selecting songs for a live audience. No further details about changes to the concert or the artist's wider performance plans were provided in the report.

For the Indore event, the immediate requirement is clear: the four identified tracks must not form part of Diljit Dosanjh's performance.
