After making waves at Coachella and Paris Fashion Week, actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh is all set to make his first-ever appearance at the prestigious MET Gala 2025. Taking to Instagram on May 5, the global Punjabi star confirmed the news and gave fans a dose of laughter and pride with a hilarious video where he unboxes and breaks down his MET Gala invite — Diljit style.
In the video, Diljit playfully says, “This card is I waiting for. This is not a small card but a MET Gala card bro. Dandyism is their theme,” instantly sending fans into a frenzy. Before unveiling the actual invitation, he reads aloud a note highlighting the prohibition of cell phones and recording devices during the event, setting the tone for the ultra-exclusive night.
What truly stole hearts was Diljit’s excitement and his iconic caption for the post:
“MET GALA Tomorrow. Daso Fer Ki Paiye Kal Nu. Halaa Laa Laa Karauni An #metgala”
The video has since gone viral, with fans flooding the comment section. Reactions ranged from admiration to pride, with one fan writing, “Met Gala will have its first Sardarji fashion icon,” and another cheering, “Paaaji! Sirra tussi launde he hamesha!” Many celebrated the moment, saying, “From Shadaa wala Met Gala to real MET GALA, you did it!”
Earlier, Diljit had teased his debut with a minimalist Instagram Story that read “First time” alongside an hourglass emoji, set to rapper Gunna’s track MET GALA. He also showcased a glimpse of a luxury welcome hamper sent by the event organizers.
Diljit isn’t the only Indian celebrity walking the iconic red carpet this year. Bollywood stars Shah Rukh Khan, Kiara Advani, and Priyanka Chopra are also expected to attend, making MET Gala 2025 a major night for Indian representation on the global fashion stage.
