A few hours ago, Karan Aujla made a stellar US television debut on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. The 28-year-old rapper not only taught Fallon how to dance bhangra but also delivered a dynamic medley of his hits Boyfriend and Gabhru! from his latest studio album P-Pop Culture, with frequent collaborator, Canadian producer Ikky — further cementing the surging global influence of desi rap. Just last year, his contemporary Diljit Dosanjh became the first Indian artist to appear on the iconic show.
This appearance only sharpens Aujla’s international profile. In recent months, he wrapped his It Was All A Dream world tour, which spanned India, North America and Abu Dhabi. Shortly before, he dropped the viral anthem Tauba Tauba for Vicky Kaushal’s Bad Newz — a runaway success with over 500 million YouTube views — that supercharged his career, first catapulted by the 2018 breakthrough Don’t Worry. Today, Aujla commands over 17 million monthly listeners on Spotify.
According to News18, Aujla earned around $2 million from the India leg of his tour, contributing to an estimated net worth of Rs 108 crore, as reported by ABPLive, The Times of India and other sources. His lavish lifestyle — marked by a Dubai villa, supercars and a serious watch collection which includes a unique Audemars Piguet Royal Oak iced out timepiece that costs an approximate Rs 1.3 crore, and a black-and-gold Richard Mille RM 30-01, a sleek and elegant item priced at Rs 2.8 crore — reflects that success. With his music now reaching even wider audiences, here’s a look at the chart-busting tracks that put him at the top of his game.
