New York, May 6: "Punjabi aa gaye oye," exclaimed excited fans after Diljit Dosanjh treated them to his Met Gala look. On Monday, Diljit walked the iconic stairs of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, blending Punjabi royalty with a modern vision. Dressed like a Maharaja, Diljit made heads turn in a custom Prabal Gurung outfit. He wore traditional attire -- a turban (a symbol of Sikh identity) and a kurta and tehmat (a long tunic and draped bottoms).

Proudly flaunting his Punjabi culture on a global platform, the 'Naina' hitmaker elevated his outfit with accessories and a sword. His outfit also featured a long cape, which was inscribed with the Punjabi alphabets. If reports are to be believed, Diljit wore exquisite jewellery sourced from Maharaja Bhupinder Singh of Patiala's legendary Cartier collection. Met Gala 2025 marked Diljit's debut at Hollywood's biggest fashion night. Interestingly, he became the first turbaned actor-singer to debut at the Met Gala.
