Punjabi singer Karan Aujla recently dropped his much-awaited album P-pop Culture which received rave reviews, with some of the songs topping charts on Spotify, Gaana, YouTube and other platforms. Amid the success of his album, Aujla appeared on international TV with a fiery appearance on Jimmy Fallon’s The Tonight Show, clips of which are now circulating online. In one of the clips, Aujla was seen teaching Fallon bhangra dance moves.
While the singer looked dapper in a black kurta-pyjama, Fallon opted for a dark grey suit. Karan Aujla playfully announced that he would teach Jimmy some bhangra moves, setting the stage for a fun cultural exchange. "So I am going to teach you some bhangra today," said the Tauba Tauba hitmaker. Watch the video here:
Karan Aujla's appearance on The Tonight Show marks a significant milestone in the global recognition of Punjabi music. Following in the footsteps of Diljit Dosanjh, who broke ground on the same platform last year, Aujla's turn further cements the genre's growing influence worldwide. This moment showcases the increasing popularity and impact of Punjabi sounds beyond regional borders, highlighting the genre's ability to transcend cultural boundaries and resonate with diverse audiences.
Aujla's journey to this spotlight is equally compelling. Before establishing himself as a singer, he made a name for himself as a lyricist, penning hits for prominent Punjabi artists like Jassi Gill, Gippy Grewal, and Jazzy B. His early life took a dramatic turn with the loss of his parents, leading him to relocate to Canada with his family at the age of nine.
Despite these challenges, Aujla's passion for music remained unwavering, eventually propelling him into the spotlight as a celebrated artist in his own right. His appearance on The Tonight Show not only showcases his talent but also underscores the universal appeal of Punjabi music.
