Diljit Dosanjh is on a roll currently. Not only is he churning out some hit tracks both in Bollywood and Pollywood but his Dil-Luminati tour has also become a roaring success. However, there has also been times when he has been surrounded by controversies. Did you know that his now-banned song ‘15 Saal’ wherein he collaborated with Yo Yo Honey Singh had earned severe backlash? So much so that the singer had also faced an angry crowd outside his house.

According to a news report in Desimartini, his song ‘15 Saal’ immediately backed a lot of ire upon its release. Though Diljit Dosanjh defended the song stating that it portrays an important message on how young girls loose their innocence and are swayed away under the influence of drugs, alchohol and boys. However, this did not convince many people who heavily criticized the song and accused the ‘Roti’ singer of portraying young girls in a bad light. Some also accused him of alleged pedophilia.

The backlash increased to such an extent that a crowd of protestors gathered outside Diljit Dosanjh’s house and demanded that he apologize for the song. Later, the Chamkila actor also went on to cancel the song and it was further banned by the Punjab government. However, it is still available to listen online.
