Veteran Punjabi Singer Gurdas Maan has cancelled his performance at a Durga Puja event in Kolkata after being informed of the venue’s unethical encroachment of Sikh morals.

Apparently while en route to the City of Joy, it was brought to the Ki banu duniya da hitmaker’s attention that the performance venue displayed a replica of the Golden Temple (Harmandir Sahib) that did not go down well with Maan.

“Sadly, even if it ruffles the organisers, I could not have done this as it’s completely against my personal beliefs in the sanctity of religious places. I’m quite shocked at this violation.”
