The audience's collective response at seeing Singh on stage was thunderous.

The chant of, `yo yo, ` got louder and reached an ear-shattering crescendo.

As the singer, along with other members of Mafia Mundeer, Alfaz, Jay Star, Mani Aujla, prepared to take stage for his concert, the crowd went berserk and cameras flashed non-stop.

After the slightly sedate beginning, he moved on to much peppier numbers like Lak 28 kudi da and Dope Shope.

In between he kept the gimmicks flowing.

Singh said, `I am a man from a small family and a small village. But thanks to God, I travelled far and wide.`

This earned him a round of applause.

`I head to Bollywood only when the offers come with respect for my art. I am not here to sell myself. Whether it's Hindi or Punjabi I will sing only in the language of our country, ` he added.

Singh performed for about an hour in front of thousands of crowd who could be seen humming the lyrics and dancing to his tunes.

And to avoid any chaos he was made to leave the venue while his last song of the evening was half way through, but still the fans ran behind his vanity, some managed to even climb on the bumper but his security took him away safely.
