New Delhi: Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh has received a threat from the banned Khalistani outfit Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) after he touched the feet of Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan during the shooting of Kaun Banega Crorepati 17.

According to reports, SFJ’s designated terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun warned that the group would shut down Dosanjh’s upcoming concert in Australia scheduled for November 1.

The threat comes after a recent KBC promo went viral showing Amitabh Bachchan introducing the singer by saying, “Punjab da puttar, Diljit Dosanjh ka main haardik abhinandan karta hoon.” In a heartwarming gesture, Diljit touched Bachchan’s feet, and the veteran actor responded with a warm hug.

The episode featuring the Punjabi superstar will air on October 31. Dosanjh, who recently made history as the first Indian artist to sell out a stadium show in Sydney, has not yet issued a public response to the threat.
