Diljit Dosanjh is a name associated with not just the Indian music industry but globally too. After his iconic Coachella performance that made headlines across the world, the Punjabi pop star’s music is being appreciated by fans and singers all over the globe. Having delivered hits like ‘Do You Know?‘, ‘Lover‘ and ‘Peaches‘, Diljit revealed that he has collaborated with Australian pop singer Sia on a song titled ‘Hass Hass‘. The announcement comes months after Dosanjh shared pictures with Sia from a recording studio on social media. No ‘cheap thrills‘ here because the much-awaited song is finally out now.
‘Hass Hass’ is an anthem of love and joy, that can unite people across the world through the universal language of music! The song depicts a man’s deeply emotional feelings towards the woman he likes. “Feel free to ask for my heart, I would be happy to give it away to you” is what one of the Punjabi lyrics loosely translates to. The highlight of this song is that Sia is singing a part of it in Punjabi! Here’s the beautiful music video that dropped on October 26, Thursday, as promised by Diljit on his YouTube. The song is also available on Spotify and Apple Music.

The latest Punjabi song ‘Hass Hass’ is sung by Diljit Dosanjh, Sia, and Greg Kurstin. The music for this captivating track has been composed by Greg, Indrr Bajwa, and Diljit, with heartfelt lyrics penned by Sia Furler, Indrr Bajwa, and Diljit. Sharing his excitement upon working with Sia, Diljit said, “Creating ‘Hass Hass’ with Sia has been a memorable journey. This collaboration is exceptionally special, as Sia has ventured into singing in Punjabi. She is effortless and absolutely incredible. This song is all about spreading happiness and positivity, and we hope it touches the hearts of people across the globe.”
While sharing a part of ‘Hass Hass’ on his Instagram, Diljit appreciated Sia’s Punjabi saying, “Her PUNJABI is Jiting My DIL 🫶🏽” An X user was confused about whether languages were being reversed in this song collaboration. He asked Diljit if he would sing in English since Sia sang in Punjabi, to which the singer had a classic reply.
