Back in 2012 when Diljaan was performing for a reality show on Colours TV, the singe sang a very melancholic song. As he began, the judges and the contestants seemed to be very impressed with his vocal range and were already in praise of his singing.

It was here where the legendary singer broke down and she couldn’t hold herself back after hearing the lyrics and the voice of Diljaan. The singer continued the song and soon enough the host, along with a few other judges too, was spotted crying as he went on with his song. The song Diljaan sang left a huge impact on the judges and the audience that day, who remembered him for his amazing performance. As the song ended, Diljaan received a standing ovation from the judges and everyone present on the set at the time. 

As the judges took their seats, Asha Bhonsle was spotted crying once again as she mentioned she couldn’t hold herself back. Diljaan simply stood in front of the esteemed judges panel, completely awestruck by the response he had received for his performance. The singer did get quite emotional himself as well when the judges began pouring praises for his performance.
