Diljit Dosanjh
Get ready, because Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh is heading to the Met Gala! The singer-actor is currently in New York City, preparing for his debut at fashion`s most prestigious event tonight, May 5th, 2025. Unlike many celebrities who keep their Met Gala plans top secret, Diljit has refreshingly shared glimpses of his journey (though his outfit remains a surprise!). He recently dropped a video unboxing his official invitation, and it`s as entertaining as you`d expect.
In the clip, filmed in his hotel room, Diljit humorously tells friends they can stop sending him wedding invites now – he`s received the ultimate invitation! He proudly displays the invite`s cover and reads out key details, confirming the event`s theme: `Black Dandyism`. Ever the entertainer, Diljit adds his signature comedic touch throughout the reveal.
Diljit didn`t hold back on sharing some juicy details. He excitedly revealed some of the A-listers he`ll be seated near, name-dropping NBA icon LeBron James and rapper A$AP Rocky. He even gave a nod to the powerhouse behind the event, Vogue editor Anna Wintour.

Spotting the "photography prohibited" rule inside, Diljit hilariously quipped in Punjabi, "Can`t make reels". He also noted the invite was strictly for one person. Drawing a funny parallel to Indian wedding traditions, he remarked, "Per person, per plate da hisaab hai (It`s a per person, per plate scenario)."
Fans flooded the comments section with love and pride. One user wrote, "Met Gala will have his 1st Sardarji Fashion Icon." Another added, "Punjabi agay met gala (The Punjabis are here at Met Gala)." Many praised his unique brand of humour, with one comment reading, "How do u come up with such creative stuff - plz to be the writing the comedy the films (sic)."
This appearance marks another milestone for Diljit, who previously made history as the first Indian artist to perform at Coachella. Now, he becomes the first Indian Sikh attendee at the Met Gala.
