Karan Aujla continues to make history.
The Canada-based Punjabi superstar is set to appear as a special guest on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon next Tuesday (Sept. 9). He officially becomes the first Canadian Punjabi musician to appear on the popular talk show and the second Punjabi artist overall.
The show's official Instagram account teased the episode by reposting a clip of Aujla performing in the studio. "OK this is 🔥 but when are we doing this live on our show? Free next Tuesday?👀" they asked. The artist confirmed his appearance on the show by reposting the same clip to his Instagram story, where he replied "See you tuesday then @fallontonight."

Aujla made chart history earlier this week with his new album "P-Pop Culture," which made a record-breaking debut. It earned 12.4 million streams and debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, the highest debut for any Punjabi-language album in Canadian history.
The historical feat comes just over a month after the album was first announced at Aujla's Montreal concert, and then released a few weeks later on Aug. 22.
"P-Pop Culture" continues to propel Aujla and Punjabi music to new heights across the globe thanks to its noteworthy success, which now extends to a broadcasted American talk show performance.
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon airs on weeknights at 11:35 PM EST.
