Renowned rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh recently stirred the pot with a witty jab at fellow artist Badshah during an interview with a news channel. When asked about Badshah’s advice on the controversy involving Punjabi music icons AP Dhillon and Diljit Dosanjh, Honey Singh playfully referred to Badshah as “Gian,” a character from the popular cartoon Doraemon.
“Gian Gyaan De Raha Hai!” Honey Singh remarked with a laugh, likening Badshah to the know-it-all character who often offers unsolicited advice. His comment was an apparent response to Badshah's earlier statements, where the latter weighed in on the public debate surrounding AP Dhillon and Diljit, calling for harmony within the music community.
The lighthearted dig has since gone viral, with fans of both artists debating the playful rivalry between the two. Honey Singh, known for his larger-than-life personality and sense of humor, seemed to poke fun at Badshah’s penchant for offering advice on industry matters.
While neither Badshah nor representatives of AP Dhillon and Diljit Dosanjh have responded to the remark, social media platforms are buzzing with memes and reactions. Many fans interpreted Singh's comment as all in good humor, while others speculated about an underlying tension between the two chart-topping stars.
As the Punjabi music industry continues to dominate global charts, the camaraderie—and occasional playful jabs—between its leading figures keeps fans entertained both on and off the stage. Whether Honey Singh’s “Gian” comment will lead to further exchanges or be taken in stride remains to be seen.
