He continued, “It’s a powerful mantra – work hard, fight, give your best, and whether you win or lose, that doesn’t matter. Our duty is to give 100%, and if you do that, victory will have no other option. So, this is a great slogan – Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo Re.”
Diljit posted the video on his Instagram with the caption, “Dhonnobaad Kolkata, tomake bhalo bashi” (Thank you Kolkata, I love you), and added, “DIL-LUMINATI TOUR 24. NEXT BENGALURU.”
To this, Khan responded, “Thank you for bringing joy to the City of Joy, @diljitdosanjh Paaji. I’m sure all at @KKRiders and their fans love the Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo reference. All the best and have a great tour…. Love u.”
During his concert, he also told his fans in Kolkata, “Aapko Mubarakbaad ai yaar, city of joy kehte hai Kolkata ko. Aap logon ke liye kitni fakhr ki baat hai ki aapke paas kitni mahaan hastiyaan hain, chahe woh spiritual leaders ho, chahe woh Rabindranath Tagore ji ho. Main unke baare mein padh raha tha, ek baat merko unki badi achi lagi, toh kisne bola ki aapne national anthem likha hai, toh aap world anthem bhi likhe, unka jawab bohot pyara tha, unhone kaha woh toh Gurunanak Devi ji already 15th century mein likh gaye.”
During his Kolkata visit, Diljit explored the Indian Coffee House, Dakshineswar temple, took a ride in a yellow taxi, and relaxed by the Hooghly River.
