Diljit Dosanjh's 'Devil' Video Depicts Protest Scenes, Sparks Student Protest Speculation
Diljit Dosanjh released the music video for his song 'Devil', featuring scenes of youth protests, police clashes, and a symbolic moment where a girl offers a white rose to a policeman. While the video does not explicitly reference any specific protest or political group, viewers have linked it to the student-led demonstrations at Delhi's Jantar Mantar earlier this year. The video ends with the message "I'm an Artist Bro," echoing Diljit's earlier statement distancing himself from political involvement. The video emphasizes themes of protest and peace without direct political commentary.
