Canada's leading university to offer a course on global popstar Diljeet Dosanjh
At a time when global popstar Diljeet Dosanjh has stirred a political debate and is being trolled for working with Pakistani actor Hania Aamir in his upcoming film Sardaar Ji 3 in the wake of India-Pakistan tensions, Toronto Metropolitan University, one of the top public universities in Canada has decided to start a course on the artiste, making him perhaps the first Punjabi musician to be studied academically. The course will begin in the Fall of 2026. Dosanjh joins the ranks of global icons like The Beatles, Lady Gaga, Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, among others, who have the rare honour of their music and its cultural impact being studied by students. The course, a milestone for an Indian artiste, acknowledges not just the musician's popularity the world over, which in recent times has been marked by his sold out Dil-Luminati tour, performance at a major festival like Coachella and his appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, will also look at conversations around art and identity besides decoding how regional musicians are shaping the global narrative. Charlie Wall-Andrews, Assistant Professor at The Creative School at TMU, in a conversation with Billboard Canada, said that Dosanjh's journey 'embodies the intersection of culture, identity, and global music entrepreneurship' and 'his rise illustrates the cultural influence and economic potential of Punjabi music on the world stage'. 'By examining his impact, students will explore how regional sounds shape global pop culture, mobilise diasporic communities, and contribute to sustainable creative economies rooted in authenticity,' he added. In his conversation with A Panay Panos, Recording Academy President, at The Billboard Summit over the last weekend, Dosanjh spoke about the cultural shift that is now happening where one can find success with music that's not in English. 'The first week at Coachella was challenging, but by the second week, the security guards were saying that they didn't want to miss the performance… (Being a ) global artiste is great, but I want my people to experience their own culture, their own music… those little kids to see someone from their culture on that stage so that they don't think any dream is a big dream,' said Dosanjh, who has collaborated with other global popstars such as Ed Sheeran, Shakira and Sia. Dosanjh also spoke of music's power to unite at a time when the world is ravaged by war. 'Countries are at war with each other, and we don't have control over these things, but music is a way to unite nations,' said Dosanjh.

Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor's former husband, Sunjay Kapur, passed away unexpectedly while playing polo in London, which left many in shock. He was 53 years old. Following his separation from Karisma, Sunjay married Priya Sachdev, a socialite and model from Delhi. Recently, an old interview with Priya has resurfaced, in which she talked about Sunjay and the difficult decisions he had to make following his father's passing and his divorce from Karisma. Priya Sachdev On Husband Sunjay Kapur Reflecting on their relationship, she mentioned on the YouTube channel Kin and Kindness, 'When we got together in 2015, he lost his father and suddenly a lot of responsibilities fell on his shoulders, leaving him alone with a business that was based in Germany at the time.' Priya explained that Sunjay would talk about his business with her and often share ideas, so she is 'very much in the know.' She added, 'I do assist him in managing the family office and have made several investment decisions alongside him.' Priya elaborated on Sunjay's path and how he dealt with the pressure of taking over the family business after his father's death – Surinder Kapur, who was a pioneer in India's auto components sector. She stated, 'Sunjay's journey has been fascinating as he became a father himself, then lost his own father, took charge of the business, and was going through a divorce simultaneously. He has faced so much, and we went through it together, and now we have emerged from it.' When Priya Sachdev Called Sunjay Kapur 'Misunderstood' When discussing what drew her to Sunjay, she remarked, 'I found him very endearing, honest, and often misunderstood.' She continued, 'He has been misunderstood, but now he is highly regarded in the industry. His father was a legend in his field, and he is now stepping into his shoes, which makes all of us very proud. He has also had to make tough decisions and choices, and the majority of them have turned out positively.' For the unversed, Sunjay Kapur's memorial took place a week later of his death, on June 19, 2025, at the Lodhi Road Cremation Ground in New Delhi. The service was attended by his former spouse, Karisma Kapoor, along with their children, Kiaan and Samaira, as well as actors Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan. In a touching moment, Kiaan was observed in tears while Karisma attempted to comfort him, which was profoundly moving. Sunjay's ex-wife, Priya Sachdev, was also in attendance and appeared completely heartbroken.
