Fans can book their tickets exclusively on District by Zomato.

Guru Randhawa announces his first-ever Delhi concert

On Wednesday, Guru took to Instagram to share a video reflecting on his journey starting from Punjabi to becoming a prominent name in the music industry. Alongside the video, he shared a note for his fans, expressing gratitude for their support him through the ups and downs of his career and promising a special concert setup.

He wrote, "To My Day Ones, It was somewhere in 2023… I stood in an arena surrounded by a sea of happy hearts. Those years spent on the road, touring back-to-back, are memories I'm ever so grateful for. You truly gave a boy from Punjab everything he ever dreamed of. But right after that, life took me on an unforeseen detour. Behind closed doors, I single-handedly fought multiple battles I chose to keep private. I stepped away with the intention to rebuild myself and in the process, I discovered a side to myself I never knew existed. Let's just say some storms are meant to be survived in silence."

'Targeted campaigns spread hate for my songs'

Looking back at his independent music projects and the backlash faced by tracks like Sirra, AZUL and fine Shyt, Guru added, "A new beautiful chapter emerged in 2025, ushering in my independent foray. God provided far more than I ever prayed for. Together, we smashed it out of the park with QATAL SIRRA, AZUL, PERFECT, PAN INDIA, SHKINI and DOPAMINE. Even when targeted campaigns tried to cast shadows over the 2026 slate, I stayed respectful and trusted the process because when you build on solid ground, success speaks for itself."

While announcing his comeback to live performances, Guru wrote, "Still, I felt a void - the magic of singing these songs right back to you in person. I read every single message asking "when?" There were many offers on the table, but the visions just didn't align. I couldn't bring myself to give you something run-of-the-mill; it had to be a masterpiece. This homecoming has been built entirely from scratch, out of nothing but love and late nights, and I can't wait for you to experience it. I'm going to give you my absolute everything that night. Thank you for standing by me through it all. Your boy is coming home. See you at the stadiums. The Sirra Era Begins."
