He is among the top rappers in the country, but Badshah insists he doesn’t work for stardom. It’s also the reason, he adds, why the fear of losing stardom never bothers him. “I don’t work for stardom. I work for the music that belongs in my veins and I know I will never lose that. It’s God’s gift to me,” claims Badshah.
Life is a cruise right now, of course. His run of chartbusters over the years include Mercy, Paagal, DJ waley babu, Abhi toh party shuru hui hai, Kar gayi chull, She move it like, Wakhra swag, Garmi and Genda phool. He has appeared in Forbes India’s Celebrity 100 in 2017, 2018 and 2019 as one of the highest-paid celebrities in India! Controversies around plagiarism and purchase of fake views, which hounded him last year, have also been forgotten.
At 36, the musician who started out in 2006 with the group Mafia Mundeer, only sees his fan base increasing.
Great show
Talking about the number he thinks has been a game-changer, Badshah, whose real name is Aditya Prateek Singh Sisodia, diplomatically tags all of them as “tide-turners”.
“All my tracks have been tide-turners in different ways — from Saturday Saturday and Abhi toh party shuru hui hai that were my introduction to Bollywood to DJ waley babu that I believe changed the standards of how pop music could perform in this country. From Paagal that went viral across the world to Genda phool that was such a strong representative of Indian colours and sounds to the world to this. I will always be proud of my body of work,” he declares.
So, does he feel like he is the ‘Badshah’ of music in the Hindi film industry? “That’s for the audience to decide. I will continue to deliver my best and present the best audio-visual experiences to the Indian audience,” he concluded. —IANS
