Hyderabad/IBNS: The Telangana govt has barred singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh from performing on songs promoting alcohol, drugs and violence at a concert, which is scheduled to be held in Hyderabad on Friday, media reports said.
The government has barred Diljit after a resident of Chandigarh made a complaint.
The government notice has also barred Diljit from using children on stage during the concert, which will take place in Hyderabad's high-tech area Cyberabad.
