Shubh, a well-known Punjabi artist from Canada, is making headlines these days. His Still Rollin’ in India tour has been cancelled. The singer, previously known as Shubhneet Singh, was scheduled to perform in several Indian cities, including Mumbai.

However, only days before the show, he provoked uproar by posting a distorted map of India on his Instagram Stories. It sparked widespread condemnation, with many calling him out for his behaviour. He was accused of sympathising with separatist Khalistani elements. In the midst of the storm, BookMyShow revealed that Shubh’s India tour has been cancelled.

“Singer Shubhneet Singh’s Still Rollin Tour for India stands cancelled. To that end, BookMyShow has initiated a complete refund of the ticket amount for all consumers who had purchased tickets for the show. The refund will get done within 7-10 working days in the customer’s source account of the original transaction,” the platform said. BookMyShow has not commented on the ongoing outrage.

However, the move has come after the brand boAt withdrew its sponsorship for the India tour of Shubh. BoAt said on X (previously known as Twitter), “At boAt, while our commitment to the incredible music community runs deep, we are first & foremost a true Indian brand. Therefore, when we became aware of the remarks made by artist Shubh earlier this year, we chose to withdraw our sponsorship from the tour.”

Shubh was due to play in Mumbai from September 23 to 25 as part of the Cruise Control 4.0 event. He also had a three-month trip scheduled in India. He was going to perform in New Delhi, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad, among other locations.

Due to facing this backlash, many celebrities including Virat Kohli has now unfollowed the singer on social media.
