New Delhi: Popular Indian singer and rapper Badshah, known for his groovy song lyrics, has decided to put an end to his long-standing feud with senior musician Honey Singh. The rift, which began a couple of years ago due to a misunderstanding, had caused tension between the two contemporaries.
During a recent concert (GraFest 2024) in Dehradun, Badshah addressed rumours about his strained relationship with Honey Singh. He paused his performance to announce his decision to move on and leave the past behind.
Badshah said, “There was a phase in my life where I held this grudge against one, and now, I want to call it quits and leave that grudge behind and that’s Honey Singh,” was quoted by PTI.
He elaborated on the issue, saying, “I was unhappy because of some misunderstanding but then I realized when we were together, 'Jodne waale bahut kam the, todneh waale bahut the' (There were many people to break us and only a handful to keep us together). Today, I just want to let everyone know I’ve left that phase behind and I wish him all the best,” he concluded.
Meanwhile, Honey Singh has not reacted to Badshah’s statement yet.
