Atif Aslam Dance at Concert Sparks Copycat Accusations Against Indian Star

Pakistani singing sensation Atif Aslam is facing a wave of mixed reactions and criticism after a video from his recent concert in Islamabad went viral. The reason? His energetic performance of a traditional “Bhangra” dance has led some social media users to accuse him of copying the style of famous Indian singer Diljit Dosanjh.

The singer, who is currently busy with a series of concerts across Pakistan, performed to a packed audience. To ramp up the energy and engage the crowd, he unexpectedly broke into a lively Bhangra routine.

Social Media’s Mixed Reaction

While many fans in the audience loved the performance, the online reaction was divided. As videos of the dance spread on social media, comments sections were flooded with comparisons to Indian star Diljit Dosanjh, who is known for his own energetic and charismatic Bhangra performances.

Some of the comments included:

• “Non-PTA Diljit” (a playful reference to the Pakistani telecommunication authority).
• “You are copying Diljit.”
• “You should not dance; it doesn’t suit you.”

While many enjoyed the show of energy, a significant number of critics claimed he was imitating another artist’s signature style, making his attempt to entertain the crowd backfire online.

A Costly Performance?

The incident shows how quickly a performance can be dissected on social media. What was meant to be a moment of pure entertainment for a live audience has turned into a point of controversy online, proving “costly” for the singer in terms of public perception among some netizens.
