Man criticizes fan for spending ₹41,000 on Concert Tickets
Man accuses Diljit Dosanjh fan of spending ₹41,000 on Concert Tickets, urges better financial choices
The excitement surrounding Diljit Dosanjh’s upcoming India tour was clear when his pre-sale tickets sold out in just 15 minutes. Dosanjh's Dil-Luminati Tour, set to take him to 10 cities across India from October to December, has created a huge buzz. During the pre-sale, held exclusively for HDFC Pixel Credit Card holders, one lakh tickets were snapped up almost instantly.
The cheapest tickets, initially priced at ₹1,499 for the “Silver” area, later increased to ₹1,999. The Gold (standing) area tickets were sold at ₹3,999, while the most expensive ones went up to ₹12,999 for Fan Pit Phase II and ₹9,999 for Phase I. Despite the high prices, people quickly resold tickets online at inflated rates, with some reaching as much as ₹21,000.
Social media reactions
Amidst this frenzy, a post on X (formerly Twitter) by user Kanishk Khurana claimed he knew a girl who spent an astonishing ₹41,265 on concert tickets. Khurana suggested that such an expenditure on a three-hour event was excessive and advised people to make better financial decisions. His comment sparked a heated debate online.

While some agreed with Khurana, arguing that the money could be used more wisely, others defended spending on experiences that bring joy. X user Siddharth Sharma noted that investing in happiness is also important, comparing the value of a concert to a cricket match or another form of entertainment. On the other hand, X user Vaibhav felt that if people can afford to spend on such tickets, they should be allowed to do so without criticism.
Amar, another user, expressed that he could never afford such expensive tickets, coming from a lower-middle-class background, and questioned the value of spending such amounts on concerts. The discussion reflects the varied perspectives on how money should be spent, balancing enjoyment against financial prudence.
