Karan Aujla Delhi Show in Crisis: Hit Songs Banned; Child Protection Unit Notices Organizers
Chandigarh/Delhi: February 27, 2026
Punjabi singer Karan Aujla faces legal hurdles ahead of his “P Pop Culture India Tour” performance in Delhi. South East Delhi’s Child Protection Unit issued a strict notice to organizers, barring several hit songs on stage.
Notice prohibits tracks promoting drugs, alcohol, violence: “Adhia,” “Chitta Kurta,” “Alcohol 2,” “Few Days,” “Bandook.”
Issued post-Chandigarh professor Dharanraw Rao’s complaint alleging Aujla’s lyrics glorify substance abuse, gun culture, misogyny.
Cites Punjab & Haryana HC July 22, 2019 order: No live shows/public events can feature violence/drugs/alcohol glorification, especially with children present. Expected large youth turnout prompted action.
Email notice threatens contempt proceedings for non-compliance. Aujla’s team scrambles to revise setlist amid fan backlash.
