In an interview with Times Now, Abhijeet Bhattacharya said, “Even in my shows, people are seated to enjoy the performance, and they clap for me. That is what a concert is called. Jinki baat ho rahi hai (Diljit, Karan), voh gaate nahi hai, sirf dance karte hai. Pehle superstars dance karte the mere gaanon pe, ab American stars bhi karte hai (The names you mentioned (Diljit, Karan), they don’t sing; they only dance. Earlier, Bollywood superstars danced to my songs, and now even American stars do).”

Abhijeet challenges Dosanjh and Aujla to perform in Kolhapur.

He stated, “Mere concerts mein auditorium full hote hai. Jinka naam liya (Diljit, Karan), unko bolo Kolhapur mein jaake shows kare. Koi ticket nahi kharidega. Inka naam suna nahi hoga toh iska matlab yeh hai ki voh log backward hai? Mere ghar pe tickets pade rehte hai inke concerts ke. My kids distribute it among others. Mere bacche kabhi paise dalke ticket nahi lenge (My shows go houseful. The names you mentioned, ask them to perform in Kolhapur—no one will buy their tickets. If someone hasn’t heard of them, does that mean they are backward? I have bunches of their concert tickets at home. My kids distribute them among others. They will never spend money on such shows).”

Abhijeet Bhattacharya recently made headlines after he expressed displeasure over Dua Lipa performing the viral Levitating x Woh Ladki Jo mashup during a live show in India. He criticised the global star for not acknowledging the original creator of the song and instead attributing it to Shah Rukh Khan, who featured in the song.
