Days after dazzling fans with his Dubai concert, Indo-Canadian singer and rapper AP Dhillon graced the majestic Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi with an immersive visit. Taking to his Instagram handle, the artist shared pictures from his day at the mosque, appreciating the serenity and architectural splendour of the iconic religious landmark.<\/p>\n

Dhillon, renowned for his dynamic hits like Brown Munde<\/em> and True Stories<\/em>, adorned himself in a traditional white thobe and a keffiyeh on his head, as he candidly posed on the expansive white marble floors alongside its signature pillars.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Adding a brief yet eloquent caption \u201cJannat,\u201d which translates to Paradise, Dhillon made no secret of his awe at the intricate designs, ambiance and sheer grandeur of the mosque. In one picture, the singer could be seen walking by the glimmering pools of water, decorated with thousands of mosaic pieces in blue shades. In another, he captured the artistic ceiling of the mosque.<\/p>\n

Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, named after the founder and first president of the UAE, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, attracts visitors from around the globe for its pristine white marble structure and impressive display of intricate Islamic art and design.<\/p>\n

In September last year, Dhillon found himself at the centre of a viral storm after a video of his live performance of With You surfaced on social media. The video captured Dhillon performing without the aid of autotune, and the ensuing commentary has been both tumultuous and polarising.<\/p>\n

The video, which quickly went viral on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, features Dhillon singing his latest hit single, With You<\/em>, at an event in front of a live audience. Unlike his studio recordings, this performance showcased the artist seemingly without the post-production assistance of autotune, revealing the raw vocal talent that lies beneath his studio-perfected tracks.<\/p>\n

While Dhillon’s attempt to perform live without autotune has been seen by some as a commendable display of authenticity, it seems to have backfired as the comments section of the video was flooded with people trolling the musician. “Please stop insulting an artist, guys. I can’t like each comment,” said one Instagram user in the comments. “It seems like the voltage has run low,” said another. Yet another questioned, “What is this, Dhillon?” in Punjabi as a play on the singer’s name.<\/p>\n
