TV
In the fast-paced world of Indian rap, headlines are rarely boring, and the latest episode involving Badshah, Dua Lipa, and Honey Singh is a reminder of just how spicy things can get. What started as a seemingly cheeky comment has spiraled into a full-fledged internet frenzy, complete with clarifications, sarcasm, and a renewed spotlight on one of Indian rap’s most talked-about rivalries.
Badshah’s Controversial Compliment Turns into a PR Nightmare
It all began when Badshah made an eyebrow-raising statement about international pop sensation Dua Lipa, saying, “I’d rather make babies with her.” The internet didn’t take kindly to it, labelling the comment as inappropriate and crass. As the backlash grew louder, Badshah stepped in with a clarification.
“I think one of the most beautiful compliments you can give a woman you really admire is to wish for her to mother your children,” he said, adding, “Meri soch nahi, tumhari soch saamne aayi hai” (Not my thoughts, but your thinking came forward).
Unfortunately for Badshah, the clarification only added fuel to the fire. Social media users were quick to brand it a “bad clarification,” with memes and criticism flooding timelines.
Honey Singh’s Comment Steals the Show
Amid the chaos, rapper Honey Singh entered the scene with a comment that had the internet in splits. Reacting to a media post about Badshah’s clarification, Honey Singh simply wrote: “Genius 😂👏👏” — a comment soaked in sarcasm that didn’t go unnoticed.
Fans instantly recognized the mockery. Comments like “Paaji using sarcasm,” and “Paaji tussi great ho,” started pouring in, accompanied by a barrage of laughing emojis. It was a classic Singh move — sharp, subtle, and instantly viral.
A Rivalry Rekindled or Just a Sarcastic Swipe?
Badshah and Honey Singh were once part of the rap collective Mafia Mundeer, which also included Ikka, Raftaar, and Lil Golu. But creative differences and ego clashes led to a bitter fallout. Since then, indirect jabs and cryptic social media posts have kept fans guessing about the status of their relationship.
Interestingly, just last year, during a concert in Dehradun, Badshah seemed ready to bury the hatchet. He told the crowd, “There was a time I held a grudge against Honey Singh, but I’ve moved on. I wish him all the best.”
But Honey’s latest comment might hint that not all wounds have healed — or at least, not completely.
Music Still the Main Game
Despite the drama, both artists are killing it on the professional front. Honey Singh’s songs “Laal Pari” from Housefull 5 and “Money Money” from Raid 2 are currently topping the charts. Badshah, on the other hand, is turning heads with his dance performance in “Galiyon Ke Ghalib,” surprising fans with moves they didn’t see coming.
