MUMBAI: Diljit Dosanjh made a grand entrance at the 2025 Met Gala, paying tribute to his Sikh heritage as he walked the iconic steps of New York’s Metropolitan Museum. Embracing this year’s theme, “Tailored For You,” the singer-actor turned heads in a custom Prabal Gurung ensemble featuring a turban — a proud symbol of Sikh identity — paired with a kurta, tehmat (traditional draped bottoms), and layers of dazzling jewels. Blending tradition with modern glamour, Diljit’s look struck the perfect chord between cultural pride and red carpet drama.
