Diljit Dosanjh who is in India for his 'Dil-Luminati' concert visited the Bangla Sahib Gurudwara in Delhi. However, the singer's gurudwara visit has made headlines for all wrong reasons.

Though photography is banned on the premises, Dosanjh and his team visited the gurudwara with a large group of photographers.

Several social media users slammed the gurudwara management for allowing Dosanjh's team to bring in photographers and videographers when ordinary devotees are not allowed to use their phones.

One of the users commented on Dosanjh's video, saying, "Go to religious place for Praying not for PR/ marketing".

"If rules are so strict in gurudwara, how's he being recorded... rules should be rules equal to all ..if capturing isn't allowed, it should completely be not allowed," said another user.

A third user wondered how a sacred place of worship can "bend their rules and regulations in front of fame and power is something I do not wish to support."

Yet another person posted, "If we use phone to click photos the sevadaars snatch our phones in Bangla sahib but Diljit paaji is a celeb so he is allowed to record video in whole gurudwara???!!!!"
