Punjabi firebrand Jasmine Sandlas is being hailed as a real hero after refusing to go on with her Delhi gig until security forces cleared a crowd of men who allegedly were harassing women in the front rows.
The Incident
Jasmine found a disturbance in the crowd and the performance was still in full swing. According to viral videos spread across social media, the singer abruptly stopped the music playing and gestured directly at two people. “Security, please, can you take away these two guys? They are bothering the girls,” Jasmine calls over the microphone. She didn't stop there. So comforting for the thousands who filled the stands that night, she said: “I’m not going to perform if women don’t feel safe at my concert. We will not sing until the girls feel safe.”
The powerhouse Punjabi singer Jasmine Sandlas recently proved she is a true "dhurandhar" artist not just in vocal ability but in character, after a video surfaced showing her taking a firm stand against harassment during a live performance.

"Dhurandhar" on Stage
True to her name, Jasmine held her ground for a few minutes, refusing to resume the performance until security officers removed the troublemakers from the arena. The crowd cheered and applauded in support. Jasmine was joined by the actress Ayesha Khan, who had an unexpected surprise appearance on stage, where she danced to Shararat. Ayesha subsequently grabbed Jasmine’s microphone, calling her a ‘child of God’ and complimenting her for putting her fans’ safety ahead of the performance.
Netizens React
The video has since gone viral on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram as fans hail the girl for a "zero-tolerance" attitude. One user wrote, "No offensive language, no drama -- just a stand for what's right." In other words, there need to be more artists like her." This arrived after reports about harassment during multiple live music performances across India, and Jasmine’s rapid response is widely considered the gold standard in artist-led crowd policing.
