We initiated the discussion on Diljit’s childhood and how deeply he is rooted in his hometown and Punjabi culture. He declared that he lived in his village or pind, Dosanjh Kalan, for about 10 years. He shifted to Ludhiana in Punjab for better opportunities. However, there will always be a special place in his heart for Dosanjh Kalan.
We wanted to know more about Diljit’s childhood days. So we asked him to recount some of the fond memories from his pind. He highlighted that Dosanjh Kalan is renowned for its pakode and barfi. He gorged on those dishes often during his childhood days.
Then, he talked about mathri and samosas and how it was a go-to evening snack for the residents of his pind. Next, he recalled that locals could only relish rasgulla only at weddings! This one took us by surprise, however, we remembered that weddings happen quite often so it was all good.
