Rapper Badshah on Friday supported Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh in the ongoing debate over liquor-themed songs, and pointed out the apparent double standard in targeting musicians when liquor is sold almost everywhere in the country.

speaking in literature till dateBadshah said that he agrees with Diljit’s recent comments that the day liquor shops are closed across the country, he will stop singing alcohol-based songs. Diljit made this comment after being instructed not to sing songs promoting alcohol in one of his concerts.

Badshah, who considers Diljit as his elder brother, said that an artiste’s work is a reflection of the society.

“He is completely right. You are telling them not to sing or make songs about alcohol, but still you are selling alcohol everywhere. Why should they not be made? An artist represents the society. And that’s what makes him relevant and that’s why people love him. He speaks about the things the whole world wants to say,” Badshah said.

Diljit, who is currently touring as part of his Dil-Luminati Tour, said that he is a teetotaler and is ready to take a pledge of not singing such songs provided there are liquor shops everywhere. Be closed.

Badshah acknowledged that the government might be facing “some kind of problem” that people may not be aware of but broadly agreed with Diljit. He said, “If you don’t want them to sing about something, then that thing shouldn’t be in society in the first place.”

When asked about his personal equation with Diljit, Badshah said that he is an inspirational person. The two have collaborated on chartbusters like proper patola And Naina from bollywood movie crew,

“He means a lot to me because he is like an elder brother to me and whenever I face any problem in life, he is always there for me and guides me. I feel very connected to him.” Something can be learned.” He is an inspiration. He is a very good person. One should always be careful in life with such a person.” Badshah also talked about the trend of songs promoting guns, especially in Punjab.

“We come from a place that represents masculinity and the alpha male. For example, there’s Divine who raps about ‘Glee,’ that’s where he comes from. We like that Bullets are fired at our weddings. I’m not promoting it but that’s the culture we grew up with and we write about it,” he said.

Badshah was also questioned about his equation with Pakistani actor Hania Aamir and rumors of an affair between the two. The musician said that Aamir is a very good friend.

“We have a good relationship with each other. Whenever we meet we have fun, that’s all, nothing more. She is happy in her life and I am happy in mine. There is nothing more to it… People want whatever they think,” he said.

Badshah said that as an artiste he is not a very “disciplined person”. “I wouldn’t be an artist if I were disciplined. I believe that artists are passionate about their art. And although every artist has their own way of working, I believe that many of them Are not disciplined because discipline binds you.

He said, “I would have become a soldier. As much as I wanted to serve the country, I couldn’t.”
