However, the crowd was pleasantly surprised with Diljit Dosanjh turning up on stage to sing along with Ed. The crowd was not aware of this surprise and screamt their lungs out as the Punjabi graced the stage
Diljit not only sang his popular track 'Lover' but also got Ed Sheeran to sing in Punjabi and it was quite a moment
The collaboration between the global sensations reached its pinnacle when they performed a rendition of Diljit's blockbuster hit, 'Lover'
On Monday, Diljit took to his social media handle to share some BTS pictures that led to the collaboration between the two for the first time
Diljit opted for an all-denim look for the rehearsals at the Mahalaxmi racecourse before the big night. Ed was seen in his trademark white t-shirt and shorts for the rehearsals
Talking about Ed Sheeran and the evening, Dosanjh said: "It was wonderful performing with Ed Sheeran last evening. He truly knows how to work a crowd. He is such a giving artiste and sharing the stage with him was a real joy and an absolute honour. Whoever said language is a barrier needs to know that music is a language of its own"
Earlier, Diljit took to his Instagram to share a video of his meeting with the ‘Shape of You’ singer. They were seen chatting with each other on the 360-degree stage at the venue
Here's hoping that this is the first of many big collaborations that the city will witness in the future!
