Singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh made a striking debut at the Met Gala on Monday, May 5 (U.S. time), instantly becoming one of the most talked-about attendees at fashion’s biggest night. Long before he stepped onto the iconic steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, anticipation was high—and Dosanjh didn’t disappoint.

Social media platform X lit up with clips of the Punjabi superstar radiating charm and charisma as he left his hotel. Fans captured a touching moment where Dosanjh paused to interact with admirers who praised his regal look. “You look like a Maharaja,” one fan exclaimed, a compliment that brought a beaming smile to the global icon’s face.

Wearing a custom ensemble by designer Prabal Gurung, Dosanjh paid tribute to his roots with a meticulously tailored look infused with Punjabi heritage. His dramatic cape featured a prominent map of Punjab, making a powerful statement that honored his identity while aligning seamlessly with this year’s Met Gala theme, “The Garden of Time.”

Dosanjh shared the spotlight with international stars including Nicole Scherzinger, Shakira, actress Tessa Thompson, and model Precious Lee. Designer Prabal Gurung walked the carpet with his muses, including Dosanjh, celebrating culture, craftsmanship, and personal expression.

In his trademark style—elegant, confident, and unmistakably Diljit—the history-making artist added yet another milestone to his global journey.
