Following his eye-catching appearance at the Met Gala 2025, where he blended traditional and modern styles, singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh was recently spotted once more among music legends. This time, however, it was not on a red carpet but on an international platform dedicated to the future of music.

On June 11, 2025, Diljit was honored as a special speaker at NXNE, held at Toronto’s TIFF Lightbox, coinciding with the launch of the Billboard Summit in Canada.

In what is considered a groundbreaking moment for an Indian artist, the ‘Born to Shine’ hitmaker engaged in a dialogue with Panos A Panay, the President of the Recording Academy, the organization responsible for the Grammy Awards.

A brief excerpt from their conversation was posted by Diljit’s team on their official Instagram account.

Panos, referencing Diljit’s memorable Met Gala car moment alongside Shakira and Nicole Scherzinger, inquired, “You know, you’ve worked with Sia. This morning, I was watching your video featuring Ed Sheeran.
