On Saturday, Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi was packed as Punjabi star Diljit Dosanjh kicked off his “Dil-Luminati India Tour 2024.” The traffic outside matched the crowd inside, causing big delays for fans. Among them was Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal, who posted a video showing the traffic mess and mentioned he had to walk the last mile to get to the concert.
Once he got inside, Goyal shared a relieved update, showing how much effort fans put in to attend the show. The concert drew a huge crowd, and Delhi Police prepared by sending out over 3,000 officers. They expected about 35,000 attendees and set up plainclothes officers and CCTV cameras for safety. Despite these efforts, fans faced long lines that stretched for miles outside the venue.
Traffic Advisory
Before the concert, Delhi Police warned about road closures and detours from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. on concert days. They also restricted heavy vehicles, but traffic was still clogged in every direction as fans hurried to the stadium. Dosanjh’s tour will head to major cities like Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, and Bangalore, with hopes that future events won’t have the same traffic troubles as Delhi.
Goyal’s Leadership Approach
Deepinder Goyal has recently made headlines for his hands-on leadership at Zomato. Earlier this month, he wore a Zomato delivery jacket and teamed up with his wife, Gia, to make deliveries in Gurgaon. They shared their experience on Instagram, showing Goyal’s connection to the company’s services and resonating with fans who liked his down-to-earth style.
