Amid all his engagements, the singer-songwriter also took out time to express his love for Indian music and also revealed some of his favourite artists.

Speaking with Brut India, Ed Sheeran shared, “The first time I came over here (India), I went to a small party with a bunch of people. Those were big stars in Bollywood.

When he was asked about some of the artists he has been listening to, Ed Sheeran promptly replied, “I have listened to a lot of Diljit Dosanjh. I think he is great. I love Armaan Mallik, obviously having worked with him. And I think King has made some really exciting stuff.”
