1
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,250
{\an8}This is… This is DJ Honey.

2
00:00:08,333 --> 00:00:10,625
{\an8}Which track did you play?

3
00:00:11,666 --> 00:00:15,375
{\an8}- Dialogues from <i>Gadar…</i>
- He's telling the truth…

4
00:00:15,458 --> 00:00:16,666
{\an8}It's connected to base…

5
00:00:16,750 --> 00:00:21,416
{\an8}And "Dooms Knight" with it.
I made a patriotic remix.

6
00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:24,000
{\an8}This is DJ Honey's… father.

7
00:00:24,083 --> 00:00:26,041
{\an8}We've just reached his home.

8
00:00:26,125 --> 00:00:28,708
{\an8}Our channel has come to know that

9
00:00:28,791 --> 00:00:32,333
{\an8}you'd thrown all his equipment out
last week?

10
00:00:32,416 --> 00:00:34,583
{\an8}- No!
- No, we hadn't.

11
00:00:34,666 --> 00:00:36,625
{\an8}Our channel catches on pretty quickly.

12
00:00:36,708 --> 00:00:41,416
{\an8}<i>I'm not the son of a musician,</i>
<i>or a famous music director or singer.</i>

13
00:00:41,500 --> 00:00:44,125
{\an8}<i>I'm an ordinary boy from a normal family.</i>

14
00:00:47,583 --> 00:00:50,333
{\an8}<i>He only used to say that</i>
<i>"I'm going to do something big,</i>

15
00:00:50,416 --> 00:00:52,416
{\an8}<i>and I will make all of you proud."</i>

16
00:00:52,500 --> 00:00:55,041
{\an8}<i>But I had no idea that he's going to be…</i>

17
00:00:55,833 --> 00:00:56,875
<i>Yo Yo Honey Singh.</i>

18
00:00:56,958 --> 00:01:03,583
Honey Singh! Honey Singh!

19
00:01:04,291 --> 00:01:06,875
At first glance,
I knew that, "This is the guy."

20
00:01:06,958 --> 00:01:08,708
What we heard back in that era…

21
00:01:08,791 --> 00:01:11,166
This was quite different from that.
Way more advanced.

22
00:01:11,250 --> 00:01:14,666
Many people have seen fame in their lives,
many have seen popularity.

23
00:01:14,750 --> 00:01:17,041
But no one else in this world
is Honey Singh.

24
00:01:17,125 --> 00:01:18,291
<i>Everybody, ready?</i>

25
00:01:18,375 --> 00:01:21,458
He moved the sort of
cultural gravity for Indian pop music.

26
00:01:22,208 --> 00:01:24,875
He made Punjabi music cool
in the rest of India.

27
00:01:25,958 --> 00:01:29,208
<i>So many artists today</i>
<i>have found recognition</i>

28
00:01:29,291 --> 00:01:31,208
<i>because of the doors</i>
<i>Honey </i>Bhai <i>has opened.</i>

29
00:01:31,291 --> 00:01:33,166
He tapped into that
aspirational thing that,

30
00:01:33,250 --> 00:01:35,125
"I'm going to be a brown guy going abroad,

31
00:01:35,208 --> 00:01:38,458
making the same videos we see
Black and white American guys doing."

32
00:01:39,333 --> 00:01:42,500
His songs were playing
at every club, every wedding.

33
00:01:42,583 --> 00:01:46,958
When a song plays at a wedding,
that's when you know you're a hit.

34
00:01:47,041 --> 00:01:50,875
When that song plays on a tractor,
that's when you know, you're a hit.

35
00:01:50,958 --> 00:01:53,208
Honey has got this one superb thing

36
00:01:53,291 --> 00:01:54,875
which nobody else has.

37
00:01:54,958 --> 00:01:57,291
Which is, "Yo Yo Honey Singh!"

38
00:01:58,666 --> 00:02:02,375
<i>Honey Singh used to be</i>
<i>India's most popular rapper.</i>

39
00:02:02,458 --> 00:02:05,458
{\an8}<i>But suddenly, Honey Singh</i>
<i>went far away from songs and films.</i>

40
00:02:06,250 --> 00:02:08,833
<i>"Such shamelessness only comes</i>
<i>from bad upbringing."</i>

41
00:02:08,916 --> 00:02:11,333
{\an8}<i>Honey Singh is the reason</i>
<i>why rapes take place…</i>

42
00:02:11,416 --> 00:02:12,833
<i>Drag his mother to the streets.</i>

43
00:02:12,916 --> 00:02:14,708
<i>Honey Singh was slapped</i>
<i>by Shah Rukh Khan…</i>

44
00:02:14,791 --> 00:02:17,291
<i>Yo Yo Honey Singh</i>
<i>is battling drug addiction…</i>

45
00:02:17,375 --> 00:02:19,500
{\an8}<i>…accused of domestic violence</i>
<i>by his wife.</i>

46
00:02:19,583 --> 00:02:22,166
<i>A figure of controversy,</i>
<i>a figure of drama…</i>

47
00:02:22,250 --> 00:02:24,833
<i>Yo Yo Honey Singh has disappeared</i>
<i>from the Bollywood music scene.</i>

48
00:02:24,916 --> 00:02:27,041
<i>- Where has he disappeared?</i>
<i>- He looks exhausted…</i>

49
00:02:27,125 --> 00:02:29,250
<i>Will Honey Singh's comeback even happen?</i>

50
00:02:29,333 --> 00:02:31,416
<i>- Is he in rehab?</i>
<i>- Will he be seen again?</i>

51
00:02:31,500 --> 00:02:33,250
<i>After all, what happened to Honey Singh?</i>

52
00:02:33,333 --> 00:02:35,750
Now I'll tell you what happened
nine years later.

53
00:02:35,833 --> 00:02:39,041
I'm going to reveal on camera
something that no one knows.

54
00:02:39,125 --> 00:02:40,250
No one at all.

55
00:02:41,125 --> 00:02:42,875
<i>Bloody fuck!</i>

56
00:02:56,875 --> 00:02:58,875
Look at my fucking veins.

57
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,291
Zack, old days are back!

58
00:03:04,375 --> 00:03:06,291
Hey, not going back!

59
00:03:06,375 --> 00:03:09,541
<i>- Everybody, make some noise!</i>
- Let's start with "Haaye Mera Dil."

60
00:03:21,166 --> 00:03:22,875
{\an8}<i>I'm coming back after seven years.</i>

61
00:03:22,958 --> 00:03:25,625
{\an8}<i>People had started saying,</i>
<i>"Honey Singh is over.</i>

62
00:03:25,708 --> 00:03:27,458
<i>His songs aren't working. He's become fat…</i>

63
00:03:27,541 --> 00:03:29,166
<i>They've sent him to the asylum."</i>

64
00:03:29,250 --> 00:03:30,416
<i>That's where I'm coming from.</i>

65
00:03:36,166 --> 00:03:39,041
For seven years, I locked myself
in a room and waited,

66
00:03:39,125 --> 00:03:40,708
fearing something might happen.

67
00:03:40,791 --> 00:03:44,500
Fuck that shit. Get out.
Nothing will happen.

68
00:03:45,541 --> 00:03:46,875
That's when I stepped out.

69
00:04:14,375 --> 00:04:16,541
{\an8}<i>Everybody make some noise!</i>

70
00:04:18,458 --> 00:04:21,125
{\an8}Love you, Honey <i>paaji!</i>

71
00:04:41,875 --> 00:04:45,166
My alarm was set for 10:00 a.m.
I woke up at 1:00 p.m.

72
00:04:45,250 --> 00:04:48,750
And in order to function well,
I need about four hours after I wake up.

73
00:04:48,833 --> 00:04:51,625
I can't speak or meet anyone.

74
00:04:52,250 --> 00:04:54,500
I fade in, slowly.

75
00:04:54,583 --> 00:04:57,666
All because of the medication.
Yesterday, I slept at 5:00 a.m.

76
00:04:57,750 --> 00:04:58,625
Even before that.

77
00:04:58,708 --> 00:05:02,250
Basically, the medication puts me
into a deep sleep.

78
00:05:02,333 --> 00:05:04,083
So, sleep is very important for me.

79
00:05:04,166 --> 00:05:07,041
I feel the effect even after I wake up.

80
00:05:09,125 --> 00:05:13,583
When I was unwell and at home,
I had postponed all my shoots.

81
00:05:13,666 --> 00:05:16,500
I wanted to work
on my fitness again because

82
00:05:16,583 --> 00:05:19,500
my songs were getting popular
and I was coming back to the scene slowly.

83
00:05:19,583 --> 00:05:21,125
But no one wants a fat Honey Singh.

84
00:05:25,666 --> 00:05:29,333
There was a time in between
when I had accepted that I'm old now.

85
00:05:29,416 --> 00:05:31,041
I've become fat.

86
00:05:31,125 --> 00:05:34,833
I'll never get back to the look
that my fans want.

87
00:05:34,916 --> 00:05:38,416
I'll just keep making good songs
and earn my livelihood.

88
00:05:38,500 --> 00:05:40,083
That would be best.

89
00:05:42,500 --> 00:05:45,291
Because my medication
is high on sodium and lithium,

90
00:05:45,375 --> 00:05:48,250
so they cause a lot of water retention
and hence cause weight gain.

91
00:05:48,333 --> 00:05:50,416
Luckily, my medication is much lower now.

92
00:05:51,041 --> 00:05:53,333
And so I'm getting results.

93
00:05:54,791 --> 00:05:57,208
While you are on these meds,
I hope you aren't drinking?

94
00:05:57,291 --> 00:05:58,875
I almost don't drink at all anymore.

95
00:05:58,958 --> 00:06:00,625
- Really?
- Yes, really.

96
00:06:02,250 --> 00:06:07,041
<i>I used to easily smoke up 20 joints…</i>
<i>12 joints, 15 joints a day.</i>

97
00:06:07,125 --> 00:06:09,333
<i>So, I've maintained a balance</i>
<i>with great difficulty.</i>

98
00:06:09,416 --> 00:06:12,333
<i>I don't want to play with that.</i>
<i>I don't want to risk it again.</i>

99
00:06:12,416 --> 00:06:14,791
<i>Because I don't want that thing</i>
<i>back again in my life.</i>

100
00:06:18,083 --> 00:06:19,500
Are these showing on camera?

101
00:06:20,250 --> 00:06:22,000
These are my favorite.

102
00:06:22,083 --> 00:06:23,708
We have to see your abs, please.

103
00:06:23,791 --> 00:06:25,833
The abs haven't formed yet.

104
00:06:25,916 --> 00:06:27,916
I've a paunch. Don't show that.

105
00:06:29,500 --> 00:06:31,333
Take it from the back
and through the mirror.

106
00:06:55,791 --> 00:06:59,375
<i>When I was not feeling well,</i>
<i>for two years, I didn't work at all.</i>

107
00:06:59,458 --> 00:07:00,958
{\an8}<i>I didn't even touch my laptop.</i>

108
00:07:01,041 --> 00:07:01,875
{\an8}Hello, everyone.

109
00:07:01,958 --> 00:07:05,208
{\an8}<i>I said, "I can't write songs now.</i>
<i>My mind is not in my control."</i>

110
00:07:06,458 --> 00:07:09,750
<i>Then Mom said,</i>
<i>"Start as a music producer."</i>

111
00:07:09,833 --> 00:07:12,458
<i>Then I got some vocals recorded</i>
<i>from various artists.</i>

112
00:07:13,541 --> 00:07:16,791
<i>I think this is my second birth now.</i>
<i>As a music producer.</i>

113
00:07:16,875 --> 00:07:17,708
Let's go.

114
00:07:26,375 --> 00:07:27,833
{\an8}<i>Millind sent me a demo.</i>

115
00:07:27,916 --> 00:07:30,125
{\an8}<i>When I heard this song,</i>
<i>I saw great potential in it.</i>

116
00:07:30,208 --> 00:07:31,916
<i>The song was set to a trap beat.</i>

117
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,625
<i>I didn't write the song.</i>
<i>I only wrote the rap for it.</i>

118
00:07:34,708 --> 00:07:38,875
<i>But I thought,</i>
<i>let's produce it the old way,</i>

119
00:07:38,958 --> 00:07:42,250
<i>like Honey Singh used to produce</i>
<i>on a </i>Dhol <i>beat.</i>

120
00:07:42,333 --> 00:07:45,500
<i>And with the same kind of melodies</i>
<i>and comps and chords.</i>

121
00:07:46,250 --> 00:07:48,333
In 2003, he came to my studio.

122
00:07:48,416 --> 00:07:50,166
I heard his songs.

123
00:07:50,250 --> 00:07:53,708
I said, "Fuck! This is what I wish to do."

124
00:07:55,791 --> 00:07:57,625
This is a dream come true.

125
00:07:58,083 --> 00:08:01,500
{\an8}As far as I am concerned,
my hero is Honey Singh.

126
00:08:05,291 --> 00:08:07,250
{\an8}<i>We're on the sets of "Paris Ka Trip."</i>

127
00:08:07,333 --> 00:08:10,416
{\an8}<i>This is my first comeback video.</i>
<i>And I'm very much excited.</i>

128
00:08:11,583 --> 00:08:13,541
<i>Yo! Netflix is here.</i>

129
00:08:14,166 --> 00:08:15,500
What's happening, motherfuckers?

130
00:08:15,583 --> 00:08:19,000
Yo Yo Honey Singh for life!
For life! For life!

131
00:08:19,083 --> 00:08:21,958
- "Tell me what it will take."
- 2022! We are coming, baby!

132
00:08:22,041 --> 00:08:24,875
We are going to
fuck everything, motherfuckers!

133
00:08:24,958 --> 00:08:26,791
We're coming! Dang, motherfuckers!

134
00:08:26,875 --> 00:08:29,708
{\an8}We're shooting Honey's video
here in Delhi.

135
00:08:29,791 --> 00:08:31,041
{\an8}So you guys stay tuned

136
00:08:31,125 --> 00:08:34,500
'cause you do not wanna miss
any of this. It's gonna be hot.

137
00:08:35,083 --> 00:08:36,375
It'll be the first video…

138
00:08:37,041 --> 00:08:39,750
- where you'll see the transformation.
- Right.

139
00:08:39,833 --> 00:08:42,000
<i>I had delayed all my songs</i>
<i>for seven months.</i>

140
00:08:42,083 --> 00:08:43,625
<i>Because I was working on my fitness.</i>

141
00:08:43,708 --> 00:08:44,708
<i>My fitness is ready.</i>

142
00:08:44,791 --> 00:08:47,125
<i>And we're going to shoot</i>
<i>nine music videos in three months.</i>

143
00:08:47,208 --> 00:08:50,416
<i>It's going to be a new collection</i>
<i>of songs for my fans.</i>

144
00:08:50,500 --> 00:08:53,041
<i>Yo Yo Honey Singh!</i>

145
00:08:53,875 --> 00:08:55,041
<i>Music MG!</i>

146
00:09:07,208 --> 00:09:11,750
<i>Good news for the fans! Yo Yo Honey Singh</i>
<i>has shot his new song in Delhi,</i>

147
00:09:11,833 --> 00:09:14,166
<i>and this song is ready to be released.</i>

148
00:09:14,250 --> 00:09:18,125
Honey Singh is coming after five-six
years. So he's trying to come back.

149
00:09:18,208 --> 00:09:19,500
So, he's doing good.

150
00:09:19,583 --> 00:09:22,083
He just, like, fell through
the cracks in between

151
00:09:22,166 --> 00:09:24,375
and now he's coming back.
It's great for him.

152
00:09:24,458 --> 00:09:27,375
Whether he's gone
or he's come back, he's always there.

153
00:09:27,458 --> 00:09:30,458
For me, according to me,
he was never gone.

154
00:09:34,083 --> 00:09:37,875
He's a good producer.
A good deliverer of a certain type of hit,

155
00:09:37,958 --> 00:09:40,333
who has a core audience
that will stick with him forever.

156
00:09:40,416 --> 00:09:41,416
It's Honey <i>Paji!</i>

157
00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:44,833
He's reached a level where he can
always continue to put out music.

158
00:09:44,916 --> 00:09:46,541
He'll fill out shows.

159
00:09:46,625 --> 00:09:48,166
You can coast on that for a long time.

160
00:09:48,250 --> 00:09:52,125
{\an8}But… Honey's vision is old now.
It's outdated.

161
00:10:02,875 --> 00:10:06,083
<i>I've been coming here</i>
<i>for the past 25-26 years.</i>

162
00:10:06,166 --> 00:10:08,875
<i>At first, I used to come by foot,</i>
<i>then on a cycle.</i>

163
00:10:08,958 --> 00:10:11,958
<i>Then on a scooter,</i>
<i>and then, I started coming in cars.</i>

164
00:10:16,208 --> 00:10:17,458
This is insane, man.

165
00:10:18,666 --> 00:10:21,083
This thing you can only get
in Karampura, man.

166
00:10:25,666 --> 00:10:26,875
This is my place!

167
00:10:27,583 --> 00:10:28,625
My city!

168
00:10:29,291 --> 00:10:30,250
My hood!

169
00:10:32,125 --> 00:10:34,000
We used to sit around, whiling away.

170
00:10:34,625 --> 00:10:37,333
We were free, both of us.
So two jobless people met each other.

171
00:10:37,416 --> 00:10:39,125
We really connected to each other…

172
00:10:39,208 --> 00:10:40,875
And we've remained connected.

173
00:10:40,958 --> 00:10:42,083
Yes, we're connected.

174
00:10:42,166 --> 00:10:46,458
Bro used to get the scooter,
and often the scooter wouldn't be clean.

175
00:10:46,541 --> 00:10:48,041
There would be clothes drying here.

176
00:10:48,125 --> 00:10:50,291
{\an8}He'd ask me for a rag,
but I'd say, "There isn't any."

177
00:10:50,375 --> 00:10:53,208
{\an8}He'd take one of those,
clean the scooter and sit on it.

178
00:10:53,833 --> 00:10:55,041
Hello, Aunty.

179
00:10:57,750 --> 00:11:00,208
Someone's underwear, or someone's towel.

180
00:11:00,708 --> 00:11:01,708
Or someone's bra.

181
00:11:05,250 --> 00:11:07,750
{\an8}Mozez <i>Bhai</i>, here's where we sat every day.

182
00:11:08,958 --> 00:11:11,375
{\an8}So, one day, he got jaundice.

183
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,416
So, he was on sick leave.

184
00:11:14,958 --> 00:11:16,458
He was resting here, at home.

185
00:11:16,958 --> 00:11:18,791
I bought a bottle of beer.

186
00:11:18,875 --> 00:11:20,750
Stuffed into my pants, like this.

187
00:11:21,291 --> 00:11:22,666
Stuffed here, like this.

188
00:11:22,750 --> 00:11:24,458
I kept it here, under the sofa.

189
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,500
And we made him drink beer,
while he had jaundice!

190
00:11:28,166 --> 00:11:29,916
I've only found out all this today.

191
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,416
You can slap him today then.

192
00:11:33,833 --> 00:11:36,291
Wow! How many years? 25 years, huh?

193
00:11:36,375 --> 00:11:38,166
- Yeah, 25-26 years.
- Wow, amazing.

194
00:11:39,041 --> 00:11:40,041
Let's go.

195
00:11:40,708 --> 00:11:43,541
<i>That was the time when</i>
<i>we roamed these streets without a care.</i>

196
00:11:43,625 --> 00:11:47,625
<i>Everyone knew me then,</i>
<i>and even now, everyone does.</i>

197
00:11:52,875 --> 00:11:54,416
Sir… Sir… Sir!

198
00:11:54,500 --> 00:11:56,791
Honey Sir! Honey Sir! Hi!

199
00:11:56,875 --> 00:11:58,541
Honey Sir! Honey Sir! Please… Hi!

200
00:11:58,625 --> 00:12:01,208
<i>This girl grew up</i>
<i>having your posters in her room.</i>

201
00:12:01,291 --> 00:12:03,083
<i>- Oh, this is that kid?</i>
<i>- Yes.</i>

202
00:12:05,541 --> 00:12:07,833
I love you, sir.
Please shake my hand once.

203
00:12:07,916 --> 00:12:10,916
Okay, c'mon, click a photo.

204
00:12:13,750 --> 00:12:16,333
- Oh, shit!
- Done? Thank you.

205
00:12:16,416 --> 00:12:18,875
- Take care. All the best.
- Thank you, sir!

206
00:12:18,958 --> 00:12:22,125
Oh, I love you so much!
I really love you so much.

207
00:12:22,208 --> 00:12:26,791
All the best for every time. Every song.
Every song of yours is the best.

208
00:12:26,875 --> 00:12:28,208
Come here, come here.

209
00:12:43,875 --> 00:12:45,333
- Love you, take care.
- Bye.

210
00:12:55,666 --> 00:12:57,500
{\an8}This is the house where I was born.

211
00:12:57,583 --> 00:13:00,875
{\an8}Where I spent my childhood and youth.

212
00:13:01,541 --> 00:13:03,916
I'd sit right here when I was a kid.

213
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,916
Mom would sing while she cooked.

214
00:13:07,625 --> 00:13:09,708
Dad would always be listening to music.

215
00:13:09,791 --> 00:13:11,791
So there was different music
playing outside.

216
00:13:11,875 --> 00:13:14,166
Dad used to play vinyl records.

217
00:13:14,250 --> 00:13:16,958
So in a way, he spoilt me.
Pushed me into music.

218
00:13:17,041 --> 00:13:21,000
Had he not exposed me to music,
to Mohammed Rafi, R.D. Burman…

219
00:13:21,666 --> 00:13:24,583
Then I wouldn't have listened to music
or developed a sense of music.

220
00:13:26,500 --> 00:13:29,875
When he was a kid,
both of us liked the same things.

221
00:13:29,958 --> 00:13:32,250
{\an8}So I would fulfill my wishes through him.

222
00:13:32,333 --> 00:13:33,916
{\an8}I wanted to be a singer.

223
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,708
{\an8}My parents didn't let me.

224
00:13:35,791 --> 00:13:38,541
{\an8}So, I invested all my energy in him.

225
00:13:39,250 --> 00:13:40,875
{\an8}So that he could live his dream.

226
00:13:40,958 --> 00:13:43,458
{\an8}My husband would object,
but I'd help him secretly.

227
00:13:46,625 --> 00:13:50,083
Looking at this picture, it looks like
my brother has taken after you.

228
00:13:50,916 --> 00:13:53,416
What do you mean "looks like"?
Of course, he has.

229
00:13:54,333 --> 00:13:57,250
{\an8}I think this was his 31st birthday.

230
00:13:57,333 --> 00:14:00,333
{\an8}"I decided to write down
31 reasons why I love you.

231
00:14:00,916 --> 00:14:04,125
Well, honestly this is not for you.
This is for your kids.

232
00:14:04,208 --> 00:14:07,291
And I really want them to know
how amazing their father is."

233
00:14:07,375 --> 00:14:10,166
{\an8}Whenever… Oh, Mom…

234
00:14:12,541 --> 00:14:17,166
When my brother has kids,
I'm sure they should read this.

235
00:14:17,250 --> 00:14:19,625
And the first reason… I've written,

236
00:14:19,708 --> 00:14:23,208
"Thank you for giving us this
beautiful and dignified life."

237
00:14:23,291 --> 00:14:24,458
- Isn't it?
- Yes.

238
00:14:24,541 --> 00:14:27,125
Because, we are very proud of him.

239
00:14:27,208 --> 00:14:28,666
- Isn't it, Dad?
- Yes.

240
00:14:37,166 --> 00:14:39,458
<i>At that time, my father and I</i>
<i>had a lot of differences.</i>

241
00:14:39,541 --> 00:14:42,750
<i>My father wanted me to study sciences</i>
<i>and help him run his business.</i>

242
00:14:42,833 --> 00:14:44,083
<i>I didn't want to do that.</i>

243
00:14:44,166 --> 00:14:47,000
<i>It was the toughest time for both of us.</i>

244
00:14:47,083 --> 00:14:50,125
<i>I couldn't help my father</i>
<i>because I wanted to do something else.</i>

245
00:14:50,208 --> 00:14:52,416
<i>I wanted to do music. I was focused.</i>

246
00:14:52,500 --> 00:14:55,291
<i>But it was difficult for both of us.</i>

247
00:14:56,125 --> 00:15:00,041
{\an8}<i>I still remember, it was War of DJ awards.</i>

248
00:15:00,458 --> 00:15:03,833
<i>Papa had no idea that</i>
<i>my brother is participating in this.</i>

249
00:15:03,916 --> 00:15:06,416
<i>We kept waiting,</i>
<i>sitting outside till noon.</i>

250
00:15:06,500 --> 00:15:08,708
<i>And he came back at 2:00 a.m.</i>

251
00:15:08,791 --> 00:15:11,916
{\an8}<i>All his friends</i>
<i>came to celebrate playing the drum.</i>

252
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,125
{\an8}<i>We were very happy.</i>

253
00:15:13,208 --> 00:15:14,958
<i>His father was the happiest of all.</i>

254
00:15:15,041 --> 00:15:17,250
<i>Honey asked him,</i>
<i>"Dad, will you stop me now?"</i>

255
00:15:17,333 --> 00:15:21,000
<i>He said, "No, now I won't. You go ahead."</i>
<i>"Go, live your life."</i>

256
00:15:25,541 --> 00:15:27,875
{\an8}<i>It was 2003. Honey was just coming up.</i>

257
00:15:27,958 --> 00:15:30,291
{\an8}He had just started
making beats at that time.

258
00:15:30,375 --> 00:15:32,583
{\an8}In the club, he saw the way I rapped.

259
00:15:32,666 --> 00:15:36,250
{\an8}We met. The vibe was great.
It began. "Let's go to the studio."

260
00:15:39,125 --> 00:15:40,708
<i>I was just a music producer.</i>

261
00:15:40,791 --> 00:15:42,708
<i>I never wanted to sing.</i>
<i>I never wanted to write.</i>

262
00:15:42,791 --> 00:15:45,000
<i>I didn't even know anything about writing.</i>

263
00:15:45,083 --> 00:15:47,208
- It's mellow.
- First rehearse it.

264
00:15:47,291 --> 00:15:48,166
It's mellow.

265
00:15:48,250 --> 00:15:50,625
Right now, you don't know the lyrics well.

266
00:15:50,708 --> 00:15:53,916
First rehearse that
and then we can get your level up.

267
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,041
- Okay.
- Okay?

268
00:15:59,458 --> 00:16:02,625
He's hard working. Really hard working
and really, really quick.

269
00:16:03,208 --> 00:16:06,166
- He would come carrying his CPU.
- Yeah, he did.

270
00:16:06,250 --> 00:16:11,041
That was amazing. That was the start.
What, he is getting his CPU?

271
00:16:11,125 --> 00:16:13,833
"Yeah, we're all good here.
Just set it up anywhere."

272
00:16:13,916 --> 00:16:18,541
This is my CPU.
It's been with me since 2006.

273
00:16:19,375 --> 00:16:20,750
It's got a handle.

274
00:16:21,583 --> 00:16:25,208
It had Acid Pro, FruityLoops,
Reason Propeller Head…

275
00:16:25,291 --> 00:16:27,791
Q base… I would work
on all these softwares.

276
00:16:27,875 --> 00:16:31,625
This was the first
Audi G2 sound card I purchased.

277
00:16:31,708 --> 00:16:34,583
All the sound engineering students
would know.

278
00:16:35,250 --> 00:16:38,333
Musicians would know what a sound card is.

279
00:16:38,833 --> 00:16:41,375
I had done my first recordings on this.

280
00:16:42,083 --> 00:16:43,916
I used to have this huge trunk here.

281
00:16:44,708 --> 00:16:46,833
My CPU stood on that.

282
00:16:47,375 --> 00:16:50,125
So this is where I produced,
"Khadke Glassy."

283
00:16:51,583 --> 00:16:54,125
And here's where I mixed
and mastered it too.

284
00:16:54,208 --> 00:16:55,250
All by myself.

285
00:16:55,333 --> 00:16:58,375
And I got my first award
as a sound engineer.

286
00:16:58,458 --> 00:16:59,458
In 2005.

287
00:17:00,833 --> 00:17:03,500
I did it all here. Then I said,
"There's no stopping me now."

288
00:17:07,291 --> 00:17:11,250
{\an8}The melody was so good.
Everyone had it as their ringtone.

289
00:17:18,625 --> 00:17:21,208
<i>In the beginning, I used to</i>
<i>write songs that were very urban.</i>

290
00:17:21,291 --> 00:17:23,166
<i>No one wanted to sing them.</i>

291
00:17:23,250 --> 00:17:25,083
<i>When I started singing them myself,</i>

292
00:17:25,166 --> 00:17:29,208
<i>that's when my journey began, as a solo,</i>
<i>independent singer and performer.</i>

293
00:17:33,833 --> 00:17:36,375
Like, the first four-five years
of his career,

294
00:17:36,458 --> 00:17:39,250
he was very quick at seeing
how the winds changed

295
00:17:39,333 --> 00:17:41,083
and changing with it.

296
00:17:41,166 --> 00:17:43,916
So you know, he tried
that Bhagat Singh thing…

297
00:17:46,750 --> 00:17:47,666
He tried hip-hop.

298
00:17:50,833 --> 00:17:53,791
He tried being an Eminem-style,
gangsta-rapper for a little bit.

299
00:17:56,833 --> 00:17:58,375
Then he went into party-rap.

300
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,500
"Party-rap by itself isn't working.

301
00:18:03,583 --> 00:18:06,541
Collabs I'm doing with
the folks guys are working.

302
00:18:06,625 --> 00:18:07,958
How do I bring these together?"

303
00:18:08,041 --> 00:18:10,000
So, he was like,
in "International Villager,"

304
00:18:10,083 --> 00:18:11,750
I'm going to have an international sound.

305
00:18:14,958 --> 00:18:16,416
{\an8}"International Villager" in 2011.

306
00:18:16,500 --> 00:18:19,875
{\an8}That sound was totally new for India
and the whole world.

307
00:18:19,958 --> 00:18:23,000
You can't find a single hip-hop song

308
00:18:23,083 --> 00:18:27,458
or a single house song,
techno song, dubstep whatever…

309
00:18:27,541 --> 00:18:31,041
All of it was Yo Yo Honey Singh's sound,
and it was an urban sound.

310
00:18:31,125 --> 00:18:33,166
My friends told me,
"It's your brother's show.

311
00:18:33,250 --> 00:18:35,083
Do you want to go?"
I said, "Okay, let's go."

312
00:18:35,166 --> 00:18:39,208
That was my first show or concert,
or watching any artist performing.

313
00:18:39,750 --> 00:18:43,708
I saw people screaming his name.
They wanted to touch him.

314
00:18:43,791 --> 00:18:47,583
I was, like, "Oh, my God,
like, is this my brother?

315
00:18:47,666 --> 00:18:49,583
{\an8}So many people love him."

316
00:18:49,666 --> 00:18:53,583
{\an8}<i>In 2012, online video viewership</i>
<i>experienced a notable shift</i>

317
00:18:53,666 --> 00:18:57,291
{\an8}<i>towards mainstream content, with</i>
<i>Honey Singh's "Brown Rang" becoming</i>

318
00:18:57,375 --> 00:18:59,000
<i>the most trending video of the year."</i>

319
00:19:01,166 --> 00:19:04,333
{\an8}<i>Best Music Director Award goes to…</i>

320
00:19:04,416 --> 00:19:06,208
<i>My favorite, Honey Singh…</i>

321
00:19:10,166 --> 00:19:12,833
{\an8}A Punjabi artist, Delhi-born,

322
00:19:12,916 --> 00:19:17,125
captures Punjab,
pan-India Bihar, and Orissa,

323
00:19:17,208 --> 00:19:19,000
goes and performs back in Chennai…

324
00:19:19,083 --> 00:19:20,708
A Punjabi artist has done this.

325
00:19:20,791 --> 00:19:22,333
The Chennai folks are singing…

326
00:19:29,666 --> 00:19:32,166
- Yes.
- Will your father agree or not?

327
00:19:32,250 --> 00:19:35,500
He'll get me married
to anyone but a singer.

328
00:19:35,583 --> 00:19:39,333
Ask your father to google my name.
His son-in-law is a superstar.

329
00:19:42,208 --> 00:19:44,416
{\an8}<i>A childhood love story.</i>

330
00:19:44,500 --> 00:19:49,500
{\an8}<i>After 20 years of dating,</i>
<i>Shalini Talwar has become Shalini Singh.</i>

331
00:19:49,583 --> 00:19:52,541
<i>Such relationships are very rare.</i>

332
00:19:53,458 --> 00:20:00,375
<i>Friends, here with me today is the woman</i>
<i>who loves and supports me the most.</i>

333
00:20:00,458 --> 00:20:02,250
<i>Who is my, one and only…</i>

334
00:20:02,333 --> 00:20:06,625
{\an8}- Is Honey Singh married or single?
- I've been married for the past two years.

335
00:20:06,708 --> 00:20:08,583
{\an8}- You're married?
- Yes.

336
00:20:08,666 --> 00:20:10,833
{\an8}So the news
that was published was true.

337
00:20:10,916 --> 00:20:12,416
{\an8}It was published in the news?

338
00:20:12,500 --> 00:20:14,333
<i>And we also have confirmed news that</i>

339
00:20:14,416 --> 00:20:17,541
<i>Honey Singh's career will now</i>
<i>be managed by his wife, Shalini.</i>

340
00:20:17,625 --> 00:20:19,916
<i>So, now let's see</i>
<i>what changes Manager Shalini</i>

341
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,875
<i>will bring into Honey Singh's career.</i>

342
00:20:31,458 --> 00:20:36,375
First time I saw Honey
was at some concert.

343
00:20:36,458 --> 00:20:38,416
He had just gotten off stage.

344
00:20:38,500 --> 00:20:43,458
{\an8}You know, like, full of energy and that's
the first time I saw Yo Yo Honey Singh.

345
00:20:54,833 --> 00:20:57,041
I started off as a music director.

346
00:20:57,125 --> 00:20:59,208
Today my friends are big actors.

347
00:20:59,291 --> 00:21:01,375
There are so many films
that release in Bollywood.

348
00:21:01,458 --> 00:21:03,791
But for super hit films,
Yo Yo is the X-factor.

349
00:21:03,875 --> 00:21:06,416
<i>After that, when he also</i>
<i>released a lot of Bollywood songs,</i>

350
00:21:06,500 --> 00:21:09,500
{\an8}<i>then we actually realized that</i>
<i>he's made his name there.</i>

351
00:21:09,583 --> 00:21:10,625
<i>He's out there.</i>

352
00:21:32,083 --> 00:21:34,750
<i>International Icon Male,</i>
<i>Honey Singh!</i>

353
00:21:34,833 --> 00:21:37,041
{\an8}<i>Best Music goes to…</i>

354
00:21:37,125 --> 00:21:39,041
<i>Yo Yo Honey Singh!</i>

355
00:21:39,125 --> 00:21:41,666
<i>- Please give it up for him!</i>
<i>- Yo Yo Honey Singh!</i>

356
00:21:41,750 --> 00:21:43,291
<i>Yo Yo Honey Singh!</i>

357
00:21:47,125 --> 00:21:48,750
{\an8}<i>When that time came, I said,</i>

358
00:21:48,833 --> 00:21:50,458
{\an8}<i>"It's time to make money.</i>
<i>Let's do it."</i>

359
00:21:50,541 --> 00:21:52,666
{\an8}<i>And it was fun. The energy was so high.</i>

360
00:21:52,750 --> 00:21:55,333
<i>That was the first time</i>
<i>I had seen success in life.</i>

361
00:21:57,833 --> 00:22:01,041
- There are no windows in this house.
- No, there aren't. No space, right?

362
00:22:01,125 --> 00:22:04,666
- So for 26 years… 24 years…
- 24 years.

363
00:22:04,750 --> 00:22:07,208
- You lived in a house without windows.
- Without windows.

364
00:22:07,291 --> 00:22:08,750
But still got dreams.

365
00:22:08,833 --> 00:22:10,291
Still got dreams!

366
00:22:10,375 --> 00:22:12,125
It was too compact

367
00:22:12,208 --> 00:22:14,625
that even with open eyes,
my eyes were actually closed

368
00:22:14,708 --> 00:22:16,250
and I would keep dreaming.

369
00:22:16,333 --> 00:22:17,625
Yeah.

370
00:22:17,708 --> 00:22:20,291
- This house is like a train box.
- Yeah.

371
00:22:20,375 --> 00:22:23,708
This is like a train coach…
What do you call it? A compartment?

372
00:22:24,750 --> 00:22:26,875
It's just a line of rooms and it's over.

373
00:22:30,250 --> 00:22:33,458
When I was unwell, I'd dream a lot.
Every time I'd wake up here.

374
00:22:33,541 --> 00:22:37,666
I'd wake up and realize,
"Oh, I'm in Noida.

375
00:22:38,791 --> 00:22:42,208
I thought I was sleeping back here.
In Karampura."

376
00:22:43,291 --> 00:22:45,000
That's what I'd dream.

377
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,833
I never feel like I left this place.

378
00:22:47,916 --> 00:22:50,625
I can't leave nor do I want to.

379
00:23:04,208 --> 00:23:07,000
That's what it is. Everything is a circle.

380
00:23:07,083 --> 00:23:10,041
Finally, you go everywhere
and come right back there.

381
00:23:10,125 --> 00:23:12,875
And I don't want to stay anywhere else.

382
00:23:12,958 --> 00:23:14,333
I want to come back here.

383
00:23:14,916 --> 00:23:19,041
When I die, I want to be cremated here.

384
00:23:19,125 --> 00:23:22,375
I've understood one thing
after coming into this world.

385
00:23:23,708 --> 00:23:28,333
The biggest lie of someone's life
is their life itself.

386
00:23:29,458 --> 00:23:33,500
Life… is false… is a lie.

387
00:23:34,875 --> 00:23:36,416
Truth is death.

388
00:23:36,500 --> 00:23:39,541
Which is committed,
which is going to stay forever.

389
00:23:43,833 --> 00:23:47,333
Everything is temporary.
So live it to the fullest.

390
00:23:48,166 --> 00:23:50,916
So, as far as I can,
I try to stay happy.

391
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,875
I keep the people around me happy.

392
00:23:52,958 --> 00:23:54,500
Keep cracking weird jokes.

393
00:23:55,375 --> 00:23:57,666
Create songs. Dance.

394
00:23:58,333 --> 00:24:01,500
Perform. Try to make people happy.

395
00:24:02,916 --> 00:24:06,791
Happiness and joy is what I want
to give to this fucking world.

396
00:24:09,541 --> 00:24:12,958
When I'm dead, people should say,
"This guy fucking lived a life.

397
00:24:13,625 --> 00:24:15,125
He lived it up, the fucker."

398
00:24:29,625 --> 00:24:32,041
Who will I give flowers to?
There's no woman to wear them.

399
00:24:32,125 --> 00:24:33,875
- It will smell good.
- Hang them in the car?

400
00:24:33,958 --> 00:24:35,041
It's jasmine.

401
00:24:36,583 --> 00:24:38,666
This is all I have.
Don't have my wallet.

402
00:24:40,375 --> 00:24:42,083
- Thank you, sir!
- Thank you.

403
00:24:43,666 --> 00:24:45,125
What is my name?

404
00:24:45,208 --> 00:24:47,125
- Honey Singh.
- That's not it.

405
00:24:47,208 --> 00:24:48,541
It's Yo Yo Honey Singh.

406
00:24:48,625 --> 00:24:50,041
Yo Yo Honey Singh!

407
00:24:52,250 --> 00:24:53,958
You still look smart!

408
00:24:54,041 --> 00:24:56,833
Still? She's saying, I still look smart!

409
00:24:56,916 --> 00:24:58,791
Are you on a diet?
You've lost weight.

410
00:24:58,875 --> 00:24:59,875
Yes, indeed.

411
00:25:00,500 --> 00:25:02,583
- Earlier you were a bit…
- Heavy, isn't it?

412
00:25:03,250 --> 00:25:04,958
Now I am back to my old self.

413
00:25:05,041 --> 00:25:06,041
Come back now.

414
00:25:06,125 --> 00:25:07,541
I am. I'm back!

415
00:25:07,625 --> 00:25:11,708
You were asking me why I have
to become thin. Is it really important?

416
00:25:11,791 --> 00:25:14,208
Do I want to do it for myself
or for the people?

417
00:25:14,291 --> 00:25:16,041
I told you, it's for my fans.

418
00:25:16,125 --> 00:25:18,583
They are noticing and asking,
"Are you on a diet?"

419
00:25:18,666 --> 00:25:21,708
"You have lost weight and you look
like before. You still look smart."

420
00:25:21,791 --> 00:25:23,875
They even said,
"You had put on weight in between."

421
00:25:23,958 --> 00:25:25,000
They follow things.

422
00:25:29,958 --> 00:25:33,500
We're on our way to the "Designer" shoot.

423
00:25:33,583 --> 00:25:36,333
Today, it's a fashion show set-up.

424
00:25:37,041 --> 00:25:38,833
Please don't laugh at my costume.

425
00:25:38,916 --> 00:25:42,541
{\an8}I'm doing some weird things
in the video.

426
00:25:45,666 --> 00:25:48,916
"Designer" is the second song
in my comeback plan.

427
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,500
After "Paris Ka Trip"
which was more young, peppy.

428
00:25:51,583 --> 00:25:54,166
And "Designer" is back
to the old Honey Singh scale.

429
00:25:54,250 --> 00:25:59,125
It's like grand, grand visuals with
an amazing artist, Guru Randhawa.

430
00:25:59,208 --> 00:26:04,583
It's Guru's idea, which I expressed in
my music and Mihir in his visuals today.

431
00:26:05,208 --> 00:26:06,750
And me, saying that…

432
00:26:06,833 --> 00:26:08,083
"Make me your designer."

433
00:26:08,166 --> 00:26:09,958
Me also, saying
that "Make me your Designer."

434
00:26:10,041 --> 00:26:11,416
{\an8}Guru Randhawa in the house.

435
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:13,416
{\an8}- We made this song in 2020.
- Yeah.

436
00:26:13,500 --> 00:26:14,833
{\an8}Now we're shooting in '22.

437
00:26:14,916 --> 00:26:16,875
He waited for me to lose weight.

438
00:26:16,958 --> 00:26:18,000
To look good.

439
00:26:18,083 --> 00:26:20,291
- I said…
- No, Bro, we waited…

440
00:26:20,375 --> 00:26:21,458
You waited for us.

441
00:26:21,541 --> 00:26:23,708
- To give us a chance on this music…
- No way.

442
00:26:23,791 --> 00:26:26,458
You waited.
I remember I was in my college.

443
00:26:27,333 --> 00:26:29,583
I'd gone to see bro's show.

444
00:26:29,666 --> 00:26:34,250
We didn't get tickets for the show.
But I saw bro and came back.

445
00:26:34,333 --> 00:26:37,958
But, today, I'm working with him.

446
00:26:38,041 --> 00:26:41,583
I'm having a lot of fun,
and I'm also feeling proud.

447
00:26:41,666 --> 00:26:44,125
This song demanded music.

448
00:26:44,208 --> 00:26:46,041
So I created music.

449
00:26:46,125 --> 00:26:49,416
Not just the beat.
I didn't program just the groove.

450
00:26:49,500 --> 00:26:51,083
I programmed everything.

451
00:26:51,166 --> 00:26:52,375
Especially the drop.

452
00:26:54,083 --> 00:26:56,000
It's intoxicating!

453
00:27:15,583 --> 00:27:17,291
Fuckers are recording even this.

454
00:27:17,875 --> 00:27:20,041
What else do you guys want to see?

455
00:27:20,750 --> 00:27:23,500
Look at my white Versace underwear.

456
00:27:24,625 --> 00:27:25,875
What are you doing?

457
00:27:26,666 --> 00:27:28,458
I'm showing you my Versace underwear, man.

458
00:27:28,541 --> 00:27:29,541
Love it.

459
00:27:29,625 --> 00:27:33,166
- You guys want to see everything, man.
- Yeah, we want to get in, babe!

460
00:27:40,791 --> 00:27:42,125
{\an8}Love it, love it!

461
00:28:16,708 --> 00:28:18,958
Mozez <i>Bhai</i>, hear this song. Bollywood.

462
00:28:43,375 --> 00:28:44,791
Bullshit she takes his name!

463
00:28:45,583 --> 00:28:47,916
This is fucking Indian music.

464
00:28:48,333 --> 00:28:51,583
Why to blame
motherfucking Yo Yo Honey Singh only?

465
00:28:54,375 --> 00:28:55,416
Thank you, Sir!

466
00:28:55,500 --> 00:28:58,500
People loved me. That's why
I became Yo Yo Honey Singh today.

467
00:28:58,583 --> 00:29:02,000
These street kids recognize me
because they loved me.

468
00:29:02,083 --> 00:29:05,708
It's some people who have accused me
and defamed me

469
00:29:05,791 --> 00:29:07,333
that I sing dirty songs.

470
00:29:07,416 --> 00:29:09,750
If I sang dirty songs,
would people call me

471
00:29:09,833 --> 00:29:11,708
to perform at their sister's wedding?

472
00:29:11,791 --> 00:29:14,208
Would they call me to perform
at their daughter's wedding?

473
00:29:14,291 --> 00:29:16,666
I sing the same songs there.

474
00:29:16,750 --> 00:29:20,708
From "Dope Shope" to
"Aunty Police Bula Legi," everything.

475
00:29:20,791 --> 00:29:24,000
And they go mad. They go wild on them.

476
00:29:24,875 --> 00:29:27,166
Are you apologetic about any of it?

477
00:29:27,250 --> 00:29:28,250
None of them.

478
00:29:29,375 --> 00:29:30,500
None of them.

479
00:29:31,916 --> 00:29:35,000
{\an8}Tell me which is the song
that you said is your favorite song?

480
00:29:35,083 --> 00:29:36,125
{\an8}"Blue Eyes."

481
00:29:36,208 --> 00:29:38,000
{\an8}Mine too. Yours?

482
00:29:39,125 --> 00:29:41,750
"Blue Eyes"?
You all keep saying the same song.

483
00:29:41,833 --> 00:29:43,875
What was the one with Shah Rukh?

484
00:29:43,958 --> 00:29:46,291
- "Lungi Dance."
- "Lungi Dance," yeah!

485
00:29:47,125 --> 00:29:48,208
"Brown Rang!"

486
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,416
"Brown Rang!" Who said that?

487
00:29:51,875 --> 00:29:53,333
- Hi!
- That's my favorite song!

488
00:29:53,416 --> 00:29:54,708
That's my favorite too!

489
00:30:07,666 --> 00:30:08,666
Whoa!

490
00:30:09,500 --> 00:30:10,916
"Brown Rang 2" is coming up.

491
00:30:12,125 --> 00:30:14,125
No, but I like "Brown Munde."

492
00:30:14,791 --> 00:30:17,416
- That is not even my song!
- Really?

493
00:30:17,500 --> 00:30:20,208
- "Brown Rang."
- "Brown Rang," right!

494
00:30:20,291 --> 00:30:21,458
Yeah, "Brown Munde…"

495
00:30:21,541 --> 00:30:24,458
So I'm going to listen
to Honey Singh's song tomorrow. And…

496
00:30:24,541 --> 00:30:26,666
She is not my fan at all, okay?
We're done.

497
00:30:30,916 --> 00:30:31,875
Today I'm enjoying.

498
00:30:31,958 --> 00:30:34,500
There are lots of girls,
and it's fun interacting with them.

499
00:30:34,583 --> 00:30:37,000
Yesterday and the day before,
things were subtle.

500
00:30:37,083 --> 00:30:39,250
I'd look like a fool
if I'd jumped in then.

501
00:30:39,333 --> 00:30:40,500
Who jumps at a fashion show?

502
00:30:40,583 --> 00:30:43,750
I already performed
in one fashion show. In Miss India.

503
00:30:43,833 --> 00:30:45,291
I was also on the jury.

504
00:30:45,375 --> 00:30:46,666
I had performed there.

505
00:30:46,750 --> 00:30:50,166
My performance there was
totally different from the rest.

506
00:30:50,250 --> 00:30:52,416
I was just like that. Very subtle.

507
00:30:52,500 --> 00:30:54,541
Girls were moving around
and all this stuff.

508
00:30:56,500 --> 00:31:00,000
This Miss India performance
that happened after the Nirbhaya incident…

509
00:31:00,083 --> 00:31:02,041
2014. Yeah.

510
00:31:02,125 --> 00:31:04,791
- When did the Nirbhaya incident happen?
- 2012.

511
00:31:05,708 --> 00:31:06,875
Fuck!

512
00:31:06,958 --> 00:31:09,458
It's already been ten years
since it happened?

513
00:31:09,541 --> 00:31:13,500
We were reading about it,
and on one hand, all of this is happening,

514
00:31:13,583 --> 00:31:16,041
and on the other hand,
he's still performing at Miss India?

515
00:31:16,125 --> 00:31:17,000
It was weird.

516
00:31:17,083 --> 00:31:19,458
But what's the relation
of Nirbhaya with me?

517
00:31:19,541 --> 00:31:22,666
Why did you even mention
the Nirbhaya issue?

518
00:31:22,750 --> 00:31:25,375
You must start with
the "Balatkaari" song.

519
00:31:25,458 --> 00:31:27,583
Because the controversies
started after that, Honey.

520
00:31:27,666 --> 00:31:30,083
Whatever it is.
Why bring up Nirbhaya with me?

521
00:31:30,166 --> 00:31:33,833
Correct. But "Main Hoon Balatkaari"
existed before Nirbhaya…

522
00:31:33,916 --> 00:31:35,416
But that's not my song either.

523
00:31:35,500 --> 00:31:38,000
Of course. But at that time,
no one connected that.

524
00:31:38,083 --> 00:31:39,708
Exactly, even then!

525
00:31:43,333 --> 00:31:44,416
<i>We want justice!</i>

526
00:31:44,500 --> 00:31:50,166
{\an8}<i>On December 16th, a 23-year-old student</i>
<i>was brutally assaulted on a moving bus.</i>

527
00:31:50,958 --> 00:31:54,291
<i>Enraged students and women</i>
<i>held protests at India Gate,</i>

528
00:31:54,375 --> 00:31:56,541
{\an8}<i>in response to the rape,</i>
<i>demanding justice.</i>

529
00:31:57,416 --> 00:31:59,583
{\an8}We want justice! We want justice!

530
00:31:59,666 --> 00:32:02,166
{\an8}In 2012, when my brother's songs
were such a hit,

531
00:32:02,250 --> 00:32:04,458
{\an8}that was the time
the Nirbhaya case happened.

532
00:32:06,500 --> 00:32:08,750
I was there, protesting,

533
00:32:08,833 --> 00:32:11,458
{\an8}because being a woman,
I know, how does it feel, right?

534
00:32:11,541 --> 00:32:15,458
{\an8}After two,
or maybe three days, I was in office,

535
00:32:15,541 --> 00:32:18,833
and I just read this news
about my brother

536
00:32:18,916 --> 00:32:21,916
that you know, he made
this song to glorify rape.

537
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,416
He's sung a song called
"Main Hoon Balatkaari."

538
00:32:24,500 --> 00:32:27,208
He's sung such a dirty, filthy song…

539
00:32:27,291 --> 00:32:30,416
I heard it today
and my blood was boiling.

540
00:32:30,500 --> 00:32:31,875
I'm hardly able to talk.

541
00:32:31,958 --> 00:32:34,750
We've asked for the FIR to be registered.

542
00:32:34,833 --> 00:32:37,166
{\an8}<i>Strong protests</i>
<i>against Rapper Honey Singh's</i>

543
00:32:37,250 --> 00:32:39,166
{\an8}<i>upcoming concert in Vadodara, Gujarat.</i>

544
00:32:39,250 --> 00:32:42,916
{\an8}<i>Honey Singh's film, </i>Tu Mera Bhai,
Main Tera Bhai<i> is releasing today…</i>

545
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,500
<i>People are demonstrating</i>
<i>against the film.</i>

546
00:32:47,666 --> 00:32:49,041
<i>Ban Honey Singh's film!</i>

547
00:32:49,125 --> 00:32:50,750
{\an8}<i>Ban Honey Singh's film!</i>

548
00:32:57,500 --> 00:33:00,875
{\an8}Media changed everything
with one news.

549
00:33:00,958 --> 00:33:04,375
{\an8}Media didn't think
it was necessary to even

550
00:33:04,458 --> 00:33:08,166
figure out whether
it was even Honey Singh's song.

551
00:33:08,250 --> 00:33:10,833
{\an8}I didn't even sing the song,
"Main Hoon Balatkaari,"

552
00:33:10,916 --> 00:33:13,375
{\an8}but I'm being dragged
into courts for the last ten months.

553
00:33:13,458 --> 00:33:17,000
{\an8}When the PIL was dismissed,
CFSN was registered.

554
00:33:17,083 --> 00:33:18,500
{\an8}This is now just too much.

555
00:33:18,583 --> 00:33:21,500
Going by the kind of songs he's made,
it's rather obvious

556
00:33:21,583 --> 00:33:22,541
that maybe…

557
00:33:22,625 --> 00:33:25,416
I'll give him the benefit
of a "maybe" that he wrote it.

558
00:33:25,500 --> 00:33:28,375
{\an8}I've never written or sung
the song "Main Hoon Balatkaari."

559
00:33:29,541 --> 00:33:32,583
{\an8}He was all over media.

560
00:33:32,666 --> 00:33:34,333
Everyone started hating him.

561
00:33:34,416 --> 00:33:36,000
Everyone started…

562
00:33:37,083 --> 00:33:39,208
{\an8}accusing him
as if he is the rapist.

563
00:33:39,291 --> 00:33:42,416
{\an8}What is this obscenity that
you've spread all over the country?

564
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:44,250
{\an8}Obscene songs, obscene lyrics…

565
00:33:44,333 --> 00:33:47,500
{\an8}Whatever I've learnt about
the world, or the way I speak,

566
00:33:47,583 --> 00:33:50,791
{\an8}I've learnt all this by listening to
and living amongst people.

567
00:33:50,875 --> 00:33:52,833
{\an8}This is the society itself.

568
00:33:53,833 --> 00:33:55,541
{\an8}People like blaming artists.

569
00:33:55,625 --> 00:33:59,708
{\an8}We've just gotten used to it now.
People will talk. It doesn't matter.

570
00:33:59,791 --> 00:34:03,000
{\an8}But the whole family gets abused, man.

571
00:34:03,083 --> 00:34:04,791
We used to get threats.

572
00:34:04,875 --> 00:34:05,958
People used to say,

573
00:34:07,083 --> 00:34:09,833
"We'll shoot him,
whenever we'll see him."

574
00:34:12,625 --> 00:34:14,291
We lived in fear.

575
00:34:15,250 --> 00:34:18,083
{\an8}Finally, I can breathe
after six-seven months.

576
00:34:18,166 --> 00:34:20,416
The humiliation I faced,
for no fault of mine,

577
00:34:20,500 --> 00:34:23,166
no one will understand
what I went through, except me.

578
00:34:23,250 --> 00:34:25,291
Maybe you'll see it
reflected in my future songs.

579
00:34:53,875 --> 00:34:55,791
So we know he didn't sing
the song "Balatkaari,"

580
00:34:55,875 --> 00:34:57,750
but he did sing the song
"Choot", right?

581
00:34:57,833 --> 00:34:58,750
{\an8}Haven't heard it.

582
00:34:58,833 --> 00:35:00,041
{\an8}- Never?
- Never.

583
00:35:01,125 --> 00:35:02,458
{\an8}I love it. We groove it.

584
00:35:03,416 --> 00:35:05,750
{\an8}I've never listened
to that song complete…

585
00:35:06,375 --> 00:35:08,375
{\an8}I heard, but I don't know if it's him.

586
00:35:10,541 --> 00:35:14,291
So "Choot Vol. 1" is this song
that these guys apparently wrote.

587
00:35:14,375 --> 00:35:17,333
Mafia Mundeer,
which is Badshah, Honey Singh,

588
00:35:17,416 --> 00:35:20,541
and Ikka, Lil Golu,
and Raftaar.

589
00:35:20,625 --> 00:35:24,666
{\an8}The ones who've redefined
a genre of music,

590
00:35:24,750 --> 00:35:27,166
{\an8}they don't feel like the world
is any match for them.

591
00:35:27,250 --> 00:35:28,375
They can win over it.

592
00:35:28,458 --> 00:35:33,791
{\an8}You know there's that immature period
that teenagers always go through,

593
00:35:33,875 --> 00:35:36,333
we also went through that.
We were kids.

594
00:35:36,416 --> 00:35:38,250
We were growing up,
learning about the world.

595
00:35:38,333 --> 00:35:39,791
{\an8}<i>"You've been fucked by 25 villages</i>

596
00:35:39,875 --> 00:35:42,541
{\an8}<i>My dick is now ready</i>

597
00:35:42,625 --> 00:35:44,375
{\an8}<i>I'll take your pussy home with me today"</i>

598
00:35:44,458 --> 00:35:47,833
{\an8}So basically, they're saying
that I'm going to fuck you.

599
00:35:47,916 --> 00:35:50,708
{\an8}And my dick
has prepared itself for that.

600
00:35:50,791 --> 00:35:53,541
So, you know my masculinity
is dependent on the fact

601
00:35:53,625 --> 00:35:55,125
that I'm going to fuck you.

602
00:35:55,208 --> 00:35:57,333
It's very aggressive, very sort of…

603
00:35:58,583 --> 00:36:02,791
Like, bordering on violent
in terms of its imagery.

604
00:36:02,875 --> 00:36:06,583
It's not just about women
and how they feel.

605
00:36:06,666 --> 00:36:09,041
It's also about the fact that
the man who's writing this,

606
00:36:09,125 --> 00:36:10,333
where's he coming from?

607
00:36:10,875 --> 00:36:14,833
And wherever he's coming from,
has he now, whatever his age is…

608
00:36:14,916 --> 00:36:17,375
As a 30-year-old something,
40-year-old something,

609
00:36:17,458 --> 00:36:20,041
has he now reflected back on it?

610
00:36:20,125 --> 00:36:23,250
- Do you regret doing the song?
- I didn't do it.

611
00:36:24,041 --> 00:36:26,208
- You're saying it's not your song?
- No.

612
00:36:26,291 --> 00:36:28,208
But it's been attributed as your song.

613
00:36:28,291 --> 00:36:30,375
It's been attributed
as a Mafia Mundeer song,

614
00:36:30,458 --> 00:36:33,166
with you and Badshah and Ikka
and it's not just your song--

615
00:36:33,250 --> 00:36:34,708
One can upload many songs like this

616
00:36:34,791 --> 00:36:36,583
on the Internet
under Mozez Singh's name.

617
00:36:36,666 --> 00:36:37,750
Should I get it done?

618
00:36:38,416 --> 00:36:40,625
- Come on, you know it is your song.
- Nope.

619
00:36:41,791 --> 00:36:45,791
A lot of artists have horrible songs
somewhere on their hard disks.

620
00:36:45,875 --> 00:36:50,000
For me, the bigger problem is not that
he did a song like "Choot" which is awful,

621
00:36:50,083 --> 00:36:52,125
but also not intended
for mass release.

622
00:36:52,208 --> 00:36:58,625
The issue is that, the attitudes
that are available, visible on that song,

623
00:36:58,708 --> 00:37:01,833
it's the same idea of
what role women play in their music.

624
00:37:01,916 --> 00:37:03,583
It's a little more grown-up,

625
00:37:03,666 --> 00:37:06,875
less in-your-face, less raw version
of the same sort of thinking.

626
00:37:09,916 --> 00:37:13,208
I don't feel particularly comfortable
listening to his songs.

627
00:37:20,291 --> 00:37:22,250
Money, cars…

628
00:37:22,333 --> 00:37:24,791
Comparing brown girls, white girls…

629
00:37:25,416 --> 00:37:27,375
How many chicks you had,
break-ups you had…

630
00:37:27,458 --> 00:37:30,250
Close-up shots of waists and hips…

631
00:37:30,333 --> 00:37:34,166
Yes, his songs
are a bit misogynistic, for sure. But…

632
00:37:34,250 --> 00:37:35,500
But… childhood love!

633
00:37:35,583 --> 00:37:37,208
We've grown up
on Honey Singh's music.

634
00:37:37,291 --> 00:37:39,750
Feels good to hear them,
but he's creating something.

635
00:37:43,333 --> 00:37:45,000
When you listen to a song like this,

636
00:37:45,083 --> 00:37:48,291
and it comes from this
immense source of star power,

637
00:37:48,375 --> 00:37:52,083
when that gives it validation
that "Honey Singh too is singing this.

638
00:37:52,166 --> 00:37:54,416
See where he's reached
by singing such songs."

639
00:37:55,166 --> 00:37:56,833
That is what I had an issue with.

640
00:37:56,916 --> 00:37:58,250
I just wanted to work.

641
00:37:58,333 --> 00:38:01,291
I took this decision
when I shot "Dope Shope."

642
00:38:05,416 --> 00:38:08,083
At that time,
I saw girls in Delhi smoking weed.

643
00:38:14,750 --> 00:38:18,791
I saw them dance to Enrique Iglesias'
"Tonight I'm Fucking You."

644
00:38:19,625 --> 00:38:22,875
I thought, if this guy is writing
such bold lyrics,

645
00:38:22,958 --> 00:38:28,083
and takes two girls on a yacht
and kisses them in the video…

646
00:38:28,166 --> 00:38:32,166
The same girls are going crazy over it
and smoking weed. Should I try this?

647
00:38:32,250 --> 00:38:33,833
So, I shot on a yacht too…

648
00:38:33,916 --> 00:38:36,416
See the "Dope Shope" video.
I've also…

649
00:38:36,500 --> 00:38:39,041
The girl is in skimpy clothes,
and we're dancing.

650
00:38:39,125 --> 00:38:42,083
I did it too. People accepted it
and liked it.

651
00:38:42,666 --> 00:38:44,416
So I tried something and it worked.

652
00:38:44,500 --> 00:38:45,916
Then I just continued.

653
00:38:47,875 --> 00:38:50,583
They all say like, "This is
what the audience wants."

654
00:38:50,666 --> 00:38:53,916
Which is the worst cop-out. Ever.

655
00:38:54,625 --> 00:38:56,541
Why? But it is what they want.

656
00:38:56,625 --> 00:39:00,708
Yes, and then are you an artist?
Or are you a supplier?

657
00:39:00,791 --> 00:39:01,791
Are you a vendor?

658
00:39:04,833 --> 00:39:08,083
No person has a motive to hurt anyone.

659
00:39:08,166 --> 00:39:09,000
It's not…

660
00:39:09,083 --> 00:39:10,583
It's just to entertain people.

661
00:39:10,666 --> 00:39:13,083
And then getting so much hate,
for no reason…

662
00:39:13,166 --> 00:39:14,750
An accusation is an accusation,
right?

663
00:39:14,833 --> 00:39:17,833
Any normal person
would be mentally disturbed by this.

664
00:39:17,916 --> 00:39:18,875
It will.

665
00:39:18,958 --> 00:39:24,083
I still remember, he was working
on two projects simultaneously.

666
00:39:24,166 --> 00:39:28,000
There was Raw Star,
and then this Temptation tour.

667
00:39:35,083 --> 00:39:36,750
I'm so tired, dude!

668
00:39:37,416 --> 00:39:38,875
That was a very stressful project.

669
00:39:38,958 --> 00:39:42,083
At the same time, I was also
doing shows and releasing albums.

670
00:39:42,583 --> 00:39:44,666
I was shooting "Blue Eyes,"
"Lungi Dance."

671
00:39:44,750 --> 00:39:48,541
All this was happening at that time.
Everything was so new for me.

672
00:39:48,625 --> 00:39:51,000
I just didn't feel like
saying no to anything.

673
00:39:51,083 --> 00:39:53,916
I wanted to do everything.
But I forgot that I'm not Superman.

674
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:57,458
{\an8}We took seven hours
to get here from Mumbai.

675
00:39:58,250 --> 00:40:00,333
{\an8}One can reach England
in so much time.

676
00:40:00,416 --> 00:40:04,666
<i>Early 2014, I saw a change in him.</i>

677
00:40:05,958 --> 00:40:09,375
{\an8}<i>The first time ever,</i>
<i>I saw him questioning,</i>

678
00:40:09,458 --> 00:40:10,875
{\an8}<i>"How am I going to do this?"</i>

679
00:40:12,750 --> 00:40:15,208
<i>He did three-four shows in a day.</i>

680
00:40:15,291 --> 00:40:16,875
<i>Even in Noida where we stayed,</i>

681
00:40:16,958 --> 00:40:20,208
<i>he traveled for his shows and didn't</i>
<i>come home much. He was so busy.</i>

682
00:40:20,291 --> 00:40:26,000
<i>He was so busy that we didn't</i>
<i>see him for 300 out of 365 days.</i>

683
00:40:27,333 --> 00:40:29,291
<i>He hardly spent time with us.</i>

684
00:40:30,166 --> 00:40:32,083
<i>He was in almost complete isolation.</i>

685
00:40:34,041 --> 00:40:35,791
<i>He'd started drinking a lot.</i>

686
00:40:36,375 --> 00:40:38,083
<i>I got to know this much later.</i>

687
00:40:40,208 --> 00:40:43,625
<i>When a car with a puncture continues</i>
<i>to be driven, what will be its condition?</i>

688
00:40:43,708 --> 00:40:46,541
<i>We were helpless</i>
<i>that he's just driving on</i>

689
00:40:46,625 --> 00:40:49,041
<i>with the steering wheel</i>
<i>in someone else's hands, not his own.</i>

690
00:40:49,125 --> 00:40:52,708
<i>Right now I'm in Ranchi!</i>
<i>Ranchi, make some noise!</i>

691
00:40:56,458 --> 00:40:58,291
<i>India's Raw Star</i> was to be launched,

692
00:40:58,375 --> 00:41:01,291
and Shah Rukh <i>Bhai</i> invited me
to go on the Slam Tour with him.

693
00:41:01,375 --> 00:41:02,833
So, I said, "Okay, let's go."

694
00:41:02,916 --> 00:41:05,625
We had to catch a flight to America
the very next day.

695
00:41:05,708 --> 00:41:08,083
In ten days, we flew
to America four times.

696
00:41:08,166 --> 00:41:09,791
- Back and forth?
- Back and forth.

697
00:41:09,875 --> 00:41:12,375
Coming and going, coming and going…

698
00:41:12,916 --> 00:41:15,750
{\an8}It was the second shoot for Raw Star.

699
00:41:15,833 --> 00:41:19,375
{\an8}I got this news that
the first episode did not go well.

700
00:41:19,458 --> 00:41:21,000
{\an8}He was not confident.

701
00:41:21,083 --> 00:41:23,708
{\an8}Very fearful.
And he was not himself.

702
00:41:24,791 --> 00:41:28,458
We weren't able to decide then
if we had to stop right now,

703
00:41:29,291 --> 00:41:30,875
and go back home and rest.

704
00:41:30,958 --> 00:41:33,083
And it took us a while to understand this,

705
00:41:33,833 --> 00:41:36,416
and to cancel existing commitments.

706
00:41:36,500 --> 00:41:39,166
At the same time, he'd also
go on the Temptation Tour.

707
00:41:40,875 --> 00:41:42,916
Yo, here's your boy, Yo Yo Honey Singh.

708
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,583
I'm coming with the one
and only biggest superstar,

709
00:41:45,666 --> 00:41:46,625
Mr. Shah Rukh Khan.

710
00:41:49,041 --> 00:41:50,625
This show is going to rock!

711
00:41:50,708 --> 00:41:52,666
Slowly, my symptoms started appearing.

712
00:41:53,458 --> 00:41:56,291
I started getting suspicious.

713
00:41:56,375 --> 00:41:58,791
That someone is planning
a conspiracy against me.

714
00:41:58,875 --> 00:42:00,125
That I'm going to be trapped.

715
00:42:00,208 --> 00:42:02,916
They're going to do something.
They'll put a court case on me.

716
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,000
I couldn't understand
what was happening to me.

717
00:42:05,083 --> 00:42:06,291
Why was I feeling like that?

718
00:42:06,375 --> 00:42:12,041
It was 3:00 a.m. in India when
it was morning there in the US.

719
00:42:12,125 --> 00:42:14,166
And he was supposed
to go for his sound check.

720
00:42:14,250 --> 00:42:16,208
He messaged me. "I'm not feeling okay."

721
00:42:16,833 --> 00:42:19,125
And this was the first time he conveyed.

722
00:42:21,875 --> 00:42:23,708
I was in my room. He messaged.

723
00:42:23,791 --> 00:42:26,416
"Something is not right with me.
See what I'm doing."

724
00:42:26,500 --> 00:42:27,708
I said, <i>"Bhai,</i> what happened?"

725
00:42:27,791 --> 00:42:30,291
He said, "Can you come on Skype?"
I said "Yes."

726
00:42:30,375 --> 00:42:33,000
- And then he said…
- "Please get me back."

727
00:42:33,083 --> 00:42:34,250
"Please save me."

728
00:42:34,875 --> 00:42:36,958
He said, <i>"Gudiya, </i>please save me."

729
00:42:41,041 --> 00:42:41,958
And then…

730
00:42:43,916 --> 00:42:44,916
he disconnected.

731
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,333
And I was trying to reach out to Shalini.

732
00:42:48,416 --> 00:42:50,416
She said, "He has to do this shoot.

733
00:42:50,500 --> 00:42:52,541
You convince him to do this show."

734
00:42:52,625 --> 00:42:56,791
I said, "I can't. Because, see,
this is what he's sending me."

735
00:42:56,875 --> 00:43:00,541
He just sent that he's not feeling okay.
Something bad is happening.

736
00:43:00,625 --> 00:43:03,208
Neither his body, nor his mind
are allowing this.

737
00:43:03,291 --> 00:43:05,250
And, for three hours,

738
00:43:06,708 --> 00:43:08,375
there was no contact from them.

739
00:43:09,166 --> 00:43:13,000
Then after three hours, I get the news
that he's in hospital.

740
00:43:13,666 --> 00:43:15,041
He got stitches.

741
00:43:17,916 --> 00:43:20,958
{\an8}<i>During the Slam Tour promotion,</i>
<i>the news has come to the fore</i>

742
00:43:21,041 --> 00:43:23,166
{\an8}<i>that Honey Singh</i>
<i>was slapped by Shah Rukh Khan.</i>

743
00:43:23,250 --> 00:43:25,375
<i>Because of his unethical behavior,</i>
<i>Shah Rukh Khan…</i>

744
00:43:25,458 --> 00:43:28,916
<i>After slapping Honey Singh,</i>
<i>the superstar asked him to leave the show.</i>

745
00:43:29,708 --> 00:43:33,083
Someone spread a rumor that
Shah Rukh Khan slapped Honey Singh.

746
00:43:33,166 --> 00:43:35,708
And that man loves me so much.
He'd never do that.

747
00:43:36,375 --> 00:43:38,958
Now I'll tell you
what happened nine years later.

748
00:43:39,041 --> 00:43:41,958
I'm going to reveal on camera
something that no one knows.

749
00:43:42,500 --> 00:43:43,750
No one at all.

750
00:43:45,291 --> 00:43:47,750
When they took me along
to the Chicago show,

751
00:43:47,833 --> 00:43:51,041
I refused to do the show.
I thought I'll die on that show.

752
00:43:51,458 --> 00:43:52,750
I wasn't getting ready.

753
00:43:52,833 --> 00:43:54,458
Everyone said, "Get him ready."

754
00:43:54,541 --> 00:43:57,541
My management came in saying,
"Why aren't you getting ready?"

755
00:43:57,625 --> 00:43:59,833
People who were with me
told me, "Get ready."

756
00:43:59,916 --> 00:44:02,958
I said, "I already said I'm not going."

757
00:44:03,041 --> 00:44:06,250
I went to the washroom, grabbed
the trimmer and trimmed my hair.

758
00:44:06,333 --> 00:44:07,750
I said, "Now how can I perform?"

759
00:44:07,833 --> 00:44:09,833
They said, "Wear a cap and perform."

760
00:44:09,916 --> 00:44:11,916
I said, "You aren't listening to me."

761
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,500
"I don't want to go!
I don't want to go!"

762
00:44:14,583 --> 00:44:17,750
I stubbornly sat on the chair
and said, "I don't want to perform today."

763
00:44:18,416 --> 00:44:21,625
There was a coffee mug lying there.
I picked it up and smashed it on my head.

764
00:44:29,875 --> 00:44:33,708
That day, I think I was very assertive
and I said, "Bring him back."

765
00:44:34,833 --> 00:44:35,875
He's everything.

766
00:44:35,958 --> 00:44:39,875
If he's not there,
then there's no point. So…

767
00:44:40,583 --> 00:44:43,625
we took this decision
that he needs to stop working.

768
00:44:43,708 --> 00:44:47,333
"You come home. We'll see
how to go ahead from here."

769
00:45:11,500 --> 00:45:12,833
It's bipolar disorder

770
00:45:12,916 --> 00:45:16,500
with psychotic symptoms.

771
00:45:16,583 --> 00:45:21,000
My brain would overwork
and spiral out of my control.

772
00:45:21,583 --> 00:45:23,041
You think random things.

773
00:45:23,666 --> 00:45:26,500
Totally random, unrelated things.

774
00:45:26,583 --> 00:45:30,875
It's like your dreams
are playing out in real life.

775
00:45:34,583 --> 00:45:37,041
Even the house help used to scare me.

776
00:45:37,166 --> 00:45:39,625
"See how she's watching me.
She's laughing at me."

777
00:45:39,708 --> 00:45:44,833
If she's mopping, I'd feel,
"She's cleaning the blood fallen there."

778
00:45:45,500 --> 00:45:47,333
I used to feel all these things.

779
00:45:49,666 --> 00:45:53,208
I had a strange feeling that I won't be
able to meet my parents ever again,

780
00:45:53,291 --> 00:45:54,833
that I'd get trapped.

781
00:45:59,791 --> 00:46:02,875
People say, "I've been through hell."
I saw hell.

782
00:46:02,958 --> 00:46:05,583
I saw death.
I wished for death, every day.

783
00:46:05,666 --> 00:46:08,041
Sir, sir, Honey Sir!
You're okay now?

784
00:46:08,125 --> 00:46:10,000
Sir, we heard
you were depressed.

785
00:46:10,083 --> 00:46:11,750
- Honey sir, is this true?
- Please! Hi! Hi!

786
00:46:12,500 --> 00:46:16,291
I let my hair and beard grow out.
I didn't meet anyone.

787
00:46:16,375 --> 00:46:19,083
I slept all the time. Cried all the time.

788
00:46:21,291 --> 00:46:23,083
I looked at the moon, all night.

789
00:46:23,875 --> 00:46:25,500
How it's changing…

790
00:46:26,958 --> 00:46:31,500
I looked at it for a really long time.
I felt like six-seven hours had passed.

791
00:46:31,583 --> 00:46:33,541
But in reality, it would be 15 minutes.

792
00:46:34,041 --> 00:46:35,500
My day wouldn't end.

793
00:46:36,083 --> 00:46:37,875
I didn't know what to do.

794
00:46:38,666 --> 00:46:41,458
Shut in one room, I just wouldn't get out.

795
00:46:42,291 --> 00:46:45,000
I felt like someone was going to die.

796
00:46:46,333 --> 00:46:48,958
That's why prayers are being held at home.

797
00:46:49,041 --> 00:46:51,416
Someone will die. Then I used
to wait to see who will die.

798
00:46:51,500 --> 00:46:52,791
I used to keep watch.
Who died?

799
00:46:52,875 --> 00:46:55,125
I used to go into the room
and check who died.

800
00:46:55,208 --> 00:46:57,208
No one has died here.

801
00:46:57,291 --> 00:47:00,750
I used to think, "Maybe I'm going
to die. That's why there's a prayer.

802
00:47:00,833 --> 00:47:02,833
Maybe I'm going to die today."

803
00:47:08,958 --> 00:47:12,416
I know it gets really boring
that I keep mentioning this,

804
00:47:12,500 --> 00:47:15,916
but I want to say, "Fuckers,
you don't know what it was."

805
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,250
This is a motherfucker of a disease.

806
00:47:18,333 --> 00:47:21,500
If your liver or kidney fails,
a brother is ready to lend you a kidney.

807
00:47:21,583 --> 00:47:24,625
If not, you can buy a kidney
from the market.

808
00:47:24,708 --> 00:47:26,958
Your brain is fucked.
Who'll give you one?

809
00:47:27,916 --> 00:47:29,708
Where will I get one?
How will I get okay?

810
00:47:29,791 --> 00:47:32,583
I used to think,
"How will this ever get okay?"

811
00:47:32,666 --> 00:47:35,541
During that time,
my constant try used to be…

812
00:47:35,625 --> 00:47:37,333
"He's low. Make him happy."

813
00:47:37,416 --> 00:47:41,625
"Do something. Do something silly.
Talk. Memories. Childhood.

814
00:47:41,708 --> 00:47:43,875
Get something that he really likes."

815
00:47:43,958 --> 00:47:47,041
Now, when I'm telling you all of this,

816
00:47:47,791 --> 00:47:52,166
I actually feel very stupid because
I'm more educated about the illness now.

817
00:47:52,250 --> 00:47:54,416
You know, we met really good doctors.

818
00:47:54,500 --> 00:47:57,958
{\an8}And… They really helped us
and they really educated us.

819
00:48:00,291 --> 00:48:03,291
Everyone at home
is now aware about this.

820
00:48:03,375 --> 00:48:04,916
About mental health issues.

821
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:08,958
My family has seen it all.
They've seen me get destroyed.

822
00:48:09,750 --> 00:48:11,750
They've understood
what this illness is.

823
00:48:11,833 --> 00:48:13,916
My mother used to go
to doctors, hauling my files.

824
00:48:14,541 --> 00:48:18,625
My sister, my wife…
From one doctor to another.

825
00:48:21,208 --> 00:48:24,458
He said it himself,
"I need a doctor."

826
00:48:25,083 --> 00:48:28,041
- He said, "Take me to a doctor."
- "I don't know what's happening to me."

827
00:48:28,125 --> 00:48:31,291
"I don't know what's happening to me.
I want a doctor."

828
00:48:31,375 --> 00:48:36,500
The day he accepted that
"These are my symptoms,

829
00:48:36,583 --> 00:48:39,625
These are my thoughts.
I have to work on it."

830
00:48:40,208 --> 00:48:45,041
That day, we saw
the improvement in his health.

831
00:48:45,125 --> 00:48:49,291
So, that took us a long time
to reach there, to that point.

832
00:48:50,958 --> 00:48:52,083
More than a year.

833
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,416
Yeah… More than a year.

834
00:48:55,500 --> 00:48:57,416
<i>Yo Yo Honey Singh!</i>

835
00:48:58,625 --> 00:49:03,666
{\an8}I still remember, in 2016,
when my brother's health got better,

836
00:49:03,750 --> 00:49:06,666
the first award ceremony
he attended,

837
00:49:06,750 --> 00:49:09,083
he was sitting
right next to Shah Rukh Khan.

838
00:49:09,166 --> 00:49:11,958
So that media should know,
nothing happened.

839
00:49:12,041 --> 00:49:14,791
And he was really nice to my brother.

840
00:49:16,375 --> 00:49:18,875
2016, 2017…

841
00:49:18,958 --> 00:49:21,458
By 2018, my brother

842
00:49:22,291 --> 00:49:23,583
started getting better.

843
00:49:23,666 --> 00:49:26,333
And he started talking about work.

844
00:49:26,416 --> 00:49:28,541
He was still on his medication, you know…

845
00:49:28,625 --> 00:49:30,583
He knew he had gained weight.

846
00:49:30,666 --> 00:49:34,583
Again, he would just
carry himself with grace.

847
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:39,791
At that time, there was
some pressure of "Makhna,"

848
00:49:39,875 --> 00:49:40,875
to go to Cuba.

849
00:49:41,916 --> 00:49:44,166
{\an8}Yo Yo… It's your boy, Yo Yo Honey Singh.

850
00:49:44,250 --> 00:49:47,000
{\an8}Singsta's here, TDO is here,
Nidhi is here.

851
00:49:47,083 --> 00:49:48,458
My wife is there.

852
00:49:51,041 --> 00:49:53,041
{\an8}He got a lot of criticism on his looks.

853
00:49:54,833 --> 00:49:57,416
{\an8}Long hair. What's happened
to his face?

854
00:49:57,500 --> 00:49:59,000
{\an8}His thought process was, like,

855
00:49:59,083 --> 00:50:01,875
{\an8}"I don't think my fans
will accept me the way I look."

856
00:50:02,458 --> 00:50:05,875
He started thinking on the lines of,
"Now I'm going to compose music.

857
00:50:06,666 --> 00:50:10,791
Give songs to…"
I was like, "No! They want to see you."

858
00:50:11,875 --> 00:50:14,541
Our family's spiritual Guru, Acharyaji,

859
00:50:14,625 --> 00:50:17,666
he also motivated my brother
a lot at that time.

860
00:50:17,750 --> 00:50:18,875
We saw change.

861
00:50:18,958 --> 00:50:20,166
{\an8}He lost weight.

862
00:50:20,250 --> 00:50:22,541
{\an8}We saw him getting fine.

863
00:50:22,625 --> 00:50:27,583
{\an8}We saw that confidence back.
That smile on his face.

864
00:50:32,416 --> 00:50:34,833
The doctors have given him a routine,

865
00:50:34,916 --> 00:50:38,083
but for him to follow his routine,
is very important.

866
00:50:38,166 --> 00:50:39,458
And his sleep…

867
00:50:39,541 --> 00:50:41,208
His sleep shouldn't be disturbed.

868
00:50:41,291 --> 00:50:42,541
And he shouldn't miss his dose.

869
00:50:42,625 --> 00:50:47,583
If we go to perform anywhere,
we reach that city one day in advance.

870
00:50:47,666 --> 00:50:49,166
We sleep well.

871
00:50:49,250 --> 00:50:51,666
We rest well and wake up
leisurely the next day,

872
00:50:51,750 --> 00:50:53,875
perform and go back to sleep again.

873
00:50:53,958 --> 00:50:55,333
Wake up late the next day,

874
00:50:55,416 --> 00:50:57,666
and take the night flight
to the next city.

875
00:50:57,750 --> 00:51:02,125
Even if he gets free at 2:00 or 3:00 a.m.,
I keep talking to him.

876
00:51:02,208 --> 00:51:05,041
What time he woke up that day,
what he ate or didn't eat.

877
00:51:05,125 --> 00:51:06,583
Whether he's relaxed…

878
00:51:06,666 --> 00:51:10,666
If he's working too much,
I ask him to take a break.

879
00:51:10,750 --> 00:51:14,083
When I didn't have work
for 2-2.5 years, it was a terrible time.

880
00:51:14,166 --> 00:51:17,958
Their young son is sitting at home
and sleeping till 12:30.

881
00:51:18,041 --> 00:51:21,125
Papa goes to work and comes back.
And I'm just watching.

882
00:51:21,208 --> 00:51:22,791
When our eyes would meet,

883
00:51:22,875 --> 00:51:24,583
I'd feel such shame…

884
00:51:24,666 --> 00:51:28,666
I'm not earning money
and my father is earning at his age.

885
00:51:49,041 --> 00:51:51,375
My parents did a lot for me.

886
00:51:52,083 --> 00:51:54,416
I couldn't do anything for them.

887
00:51:57,041 --> 00:52:00,791
Now they just keep waiting for me.
"When will he come? When will he come?"

888
00:52:00,875 --> 00:52:02,625
I can't even sit with them.

889
00:52:06,875 --> 00:52:10,791
And when I was with them,
I was a corpse. A mad corpse.

890
00:52:16,708 --> 00:52:20,000
What have they seen till now?
I have seen everything.

891
00:52:27,666 --> 00:52:31,583
Now I'm trying to be aware that
no matter how busy I get,

892
00:52:31,666 --> 00:52:34,000
I take care of them.

893
00:52:35,125 --> 00:52:37,333
I just want to say that

894
00:52:37,916 --> 00:52:41,416
whoever is watching this documentary,
just take care of your parents.

895
00:52:42,666 --> 00:52:45,208
Once they are gone,
they won't come back.

896
00:52:57,750 --> 00:52:59,708
These are my medicines.

897
00:53:00,583 --> 00:53:04,833
Mom makes me this pouch.
I can make it myself. I'm a grown man.

898
00:53:06,458 --> 00:53:08,791
See, she prepares my dose for me.

899
00:53:11,541 --> 00:53:13,250
This is my whole dose, all cut up.

900
00:53:13,333 --> 00:53:17,208
This much of this, three pills of this,
two pills of that, one pill of this…

901
00:53:17,291 --> 00:53:19,791
- This is one time, one day's dose?
- One day's dose.

902
00:53:21,916 --> 00:53:25,416
The medication starts taking effect
about an hour after I take it.

903
00:53:25,500 --> 00:53:27,125
And I start feeling sleepy.

904
00:53:27,208 --> 00:53:29,125
I'm too '"up" now.

905
00:53:29,208 --> 00:53:32,208
And if I don't take my medication now,
I can't sleep.

906
00:53:32,333 --> 00:53:35,916
And if I don't sleep,
I won't be able to function the next day.

907
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,291
And something or the other
might go wrong.

908
00:53:51,166 --> 00:53:53,125
In my life…

909
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:56,166
I never want to be out of my control.

910
00:53:56,250 --> 00:53:58,125
That's why I want to tell you that

911
00:53:58,208 --> 00:54:01,916
I never liked my brain
to be out of control.

912
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:03,666
And that's exactly what happened.

913
00:54:03,750 --> 00:54:05,875
I fell sick and my brain
went out of hand.

914
00:54:06,500 --> 00:54:09,166
So, I've maintained a balance
with great difficulty.

915
00:54:09,250 --> 00:54:10,833
I don't want to play with that.

916
00:54:10,916 --> 00:54:14,500
With drugs, alcohol, too much of work,

917
00:54:14,583 --> 00:54:17,375
or less of sleep, too much of exertion…

918
00:54:17,458 --> 00:54:19,041
I don't want to risk it again.

919
00:54:19,125 --> 00:54:21,833
Because, I don't want that thing
back again in my life.

920
00:55:20,750 --> 00:55:22,833
{\an8}I plan a lot of things myself.

921
00:55:22,916 --> 00:55:25,541
I try to design my career
based on the possibilities.

922
00:55:25,625 --> 00:55:28,666
My guru, Acharya <i>ji</i> keeps telling me
that I'm God's child.

923
00:55:28,750 --> 00:55:31,416
Whatever you think will happen.
And it does happen.

924
00:55:31,500 --> 00:55:33,666
If I plan four things… big ones…

925
00:55:33,750 --> 00:55:36,708
14 things happen on their own.
They come to me.

926
00:55:37,541 --> 00:55:40,916
Mr. Salman Khan has sent me a song.

927
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,041
The song is ready,
and they're shooting it after two days.

928
00:55:44,125 --> 00:55:48,250
So, I'm getting an opportunity.
I just have to sing it.

929
00:55:48,333 --> 00:55:51,125
He said, "If you want
to try some rap on this, then…"

930
00:55:51,208 --> 00:55:54,000
We'll try, if we can write some rap,
then we'll sing some rap too.

931
00:56:18,666 --> 00:56:20,250
We'll have to do some rap here.

932
00:56:21,750 --> 00:56:23,333
What's the chorus of this song?

933
00:56:23,833 --> 00:56:26,416
That's what I was thinking.
There's no chorus.

934
00:56:26,500 --> 00:56:28,750
You just sing the chorus.
We'll make a chorus.

935
00:56:31,041 --> 00:56:32,958
We can do something cartoon style.

936
00:56:33,041 --> 00:56:34,291
Something from the film--

937
00:56:34,375 --> 00:56:36,791
We can at least say,
"I'm in love with a girl."

938
00:56:37,500 --> 00:56:39,583
I'm usually a brave boy.
I'm a bit scared.

939
00:56:39,666 --> 00:56:42,208
{\an8}Someone please tell her this.
Explain this to her…

940
00:56:42,291 --> 00:56:44,916
{\an8}I'm her Nobita, she's my Shizuka.
I want to meet her.

941
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:46,083
I don't know.

942
00:56:47,083 --> 00:56:48,833
- I. Don't. Know.
- I don't know.

943
00:56:59,833 --> 00:57:02,833
Make this beat and bounce it.
We'll write it outside.

944
00:57:08,666 --> 00:57:11,875
We'll start this… Let's start this.

945
00:57:14,041 --> 00:57:16,041
- "C'mon everybody, sing with me."
- Start.

946
00:57:17,958 --> 00:57:20,333
Everyone… Golu, Molu,
Bunty, Babli, Tinku, Goli…

947
00:57:26,125 --> 00:57:27,583
{\an8}<i>And, action!</i>

948
00:57:35,458 --> 00:57:39,125
{\an8}We were shooting for <i>Bhaijaan</i>
in Hyderabad and I had this thought.

949
00:57:39,208 --> 00:57:41,750
And so I gave it to Honey.

950
00:57:41,833 --> 00:57:45,166
He went to the studio,
and in half an hour, he finished the rap.

951
00:57:45,250 --> 00:57:48,000
And then, I requested Honey to come

952
00:57:48,083 --> 00:57:50,208
and to be in this song with us…

953
00:57:50,916 --> 00:57:54,375
It's a really cool song for kids.

954
00:57:56,833 --> 00:57:58,333
<i>Lots of things are happening.</i>

955
00:57:58,416 --> 00:58:00,333
<i>A lot of songs are getting made,</i>
<i>lots of shoots.</i>

956
00:58:01,541 --> 00:58:04,500
{\an8}<i>I'm doing back to back shows</i>
<i>as I wasn't doing a lot before.</i>

957
00:58:05,083 --> 00:58:08,125
<i>I also do a lot</i>
<i>of wedding performances.</i>

958
00:58:08,208 --> 00:58:10,458
<i>The demand for that</i>
<i>has grown so much</i>

959
00:58:10,541 --> 00:58:12,541
<i>that we're not able to sort out dates.</i>

960
00:58:12,625 --> 00:58:14,958
<i>What dates to give and what not to.</i>

961
00:58:18,166 --> 00:58:21,791
{\an8}<i>Thank God, he started working out</i>
<i>and let the negativity go out.</i>

962
00:58:21,875 --> 00:58:24,125
{\an8}<i>And… he's back.</i>

963
00:58:25,708 --> 00:58:29,083
We thought life is good,
and everything is sorted now.

964
00:58:29,166 --> 00:58:31,583
And he's working. He's happy.
He's feeling okay.

965
00:58:31,666 --> 00:58:35,041
I started working too
and we all got busy.

966
00:58:35,125 --> 00:58:39,916
When I actually decided, "Okay,
now things are fine," you know…

967
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:43,083
Everyone is sorted,
Mom, Dad, my brother…

968
00:58:43,166 --> 00:58:44,791
Then, a major setback happened.

969
00:58:44,875 --> 00:58:49,000
<i>Yo Yo Honey Singh has been accused</i>
<i>of domestic violence.</i>

970
00:58:49,083 --> 00:58:51,375
<i>Honey Singh's wife, Shalini Talwar,</i>

971
00:58:51,458 --> 00:58:55,041
<i>has moved a plea</i>
<i>in Delhi's Tis Hazari Court.</i>

972
00:58:55,125 --> 00:58:57,750
I just want to say
that today was my hearing.

973
00:58:57,833 --> 00:58:59,875
I couldn't make it to the last one
as I was sick.

974
00:58:59,958 --> 00:59:03,416
And the Hon'ble Judge
has counselled Shalini and me well.

975
00:59:03,500 --> 00:59:05,625
I have full faith in the judiciary.

976
00:59:05,708 --> 00:59:07,916
Whatever will happen
will be the best for me.

977
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:11,500
We want you to know that Shalini Singh
has not just blamed Honey Singh,

978
00:59:11,583 --> 00:59:16,625
but has also accused his mother, father
and younger sister with exploitation.

979
00:59:16,708 --> 00:59:19,833
Who do we prove ourselves to?
No one will believe us.

980
00:59:19,916 --> 00:59:23,666
Because the outside world
was very difficult.

981
00:59:23,750 --> 00:59:25,666
And what controversies were happening.

982
00:59:25,750 --> 00:59:28,416
So, yeah, it was a difficult time.

983
00:59:35,041 --> 00:59:39,500
<i>Honey Singh's love story that started</i>
<i>in school has come to an end now.</i>

984
00:59:39,583 --> 00:59:41,708
<i>There has been an out-of-court settlement.</i>

985
00:59:41,791 --> 00:59:44,666
<i>Shalini Talwar has dropped all charges.</i>

986
00:59:44,750 --> 00:59:48,166
<i>Both of them are now legally divorced.</i>

987
00:59:48,958 --> 00:59:51,375
Do you want to talk a little bit
about the divorce, Honey?

988
00:59:51,458 --> 00:59:53,250
Do you wanna tell me what happened?

989
00:59:53,875 --> 00:59:57,416
We've both signed an MoU.
So, we cannot talk about it.

990
00:59:57,500 --> 00:59:59,875
But, I wish her all the best in her life.

991
01:00:00,750 --> 01:00:03,083
I wish she has a good life ahead.

992
01:00:03,708 --> 01:00:05,916
What I said about the circle,

993
01:00:06,458 --> 01:00:08,041
our life is in this circle.

994
01:00:09,500 --> 01:00:13,625
This circle will keep coming back
and will get balanced.

995
01:00:13,708 --> 01:00:15,416
You get what you give.

996
01:00:15,500 --> 01:00:18,500
What goes around comes around.
There's a saying in English.

997
01:00:19,166 --> 01:00:21,166
But I believe in this.

998
01:00:48,916 --> 01:00:51,958
<i>We've had one trouble</i>
<i>after the other, since 2012.</i>

999
01:00:52,041 --> 01:00:55,458
<i>So as a family, we haven't enjoyed life.</i>

1000
01:00:55,541 --> 01:00:57,541
<i>Now his health is better.</i>

1001
01:00:57,625 --> 01:00:59,083
<i>And all his struggles,</i>

1002
01:00:59,166 --> 01:01:01,000
<i>all the set backs that he has seen…</i>

1003
01:01:01,083 --> 01:01:02,625
<i>Now he's coming back.</i>

1004
01:01:03,333 --> 01:01:05,416
<i>I think the "Designer" launch</i>
<i>is tomorrow.</i>

1005
01:01:05,500 --> 01:01:07,416
{\an8}<i>And after some time, the collaboration</i>

1006
01:01:07,500 --> 01:01:09,625
{\an8}<i>with Lil Pump, "Casanova"</i>
<i>is being planned.</i>

1007
01:01:09,708 --> 01:01:13,416
{\an8}<i>So, the pressure on him to give</i>
<i>a hit song like before is very high.</i>

1008
01:01:14,250 --> 01:01:16,625
<i>We're all a bit tense too.</i>
<i>But we are praying.</i>

1009
01:01:19,875 --> 01:01:22,000
{\an8}Ready for what happens with you now?

1010
01:01:22,083 --> 01:01:24,166
{\an8}Sir, I'm born ready for everything, okay?

1011
01:01:24,250 --> 01:01:26,208
{\an8}I'm ready for hits.
I'm ready for flops.

1012
01:01:26,291 --> 01:01:29,000
I'm ready for more success.
I'm ready for more failure.

1013
01:01:29,083 --> 01:01:32,291
{\an8}Yo Yo, it's your boy, Honey Singh.
A big shoutout to all my fans…

1014
01:01:32,375 --> 01:01:34,250
{\an8}You can now listen to my latest song…

1015
01:01:34,333 --> 01:01:37,708
{\an8}You can now listen to my latest song,
"Designer." Download it, my new song.

1016
01:01:37,791 --> 01:01:38,833
On Apple Music.

1017
01:01:38,916 --> 01:01:40,083
On Wynk Music app.

1018
01:01:40,166 --> 01:01:43,166
{\an8}On the Hungama Music app.
May there be <i>hungama.</i>

1019
01:01:43,250 --> 01:01:45,666
<i>I was waiting for this for a long time.</i>
<i>Finally…</i>

1020
01:02:01,166 --> 01:02:06,291
<i>Make your own reels on my song,</i>
<i>"Designer" using #designer.</i>

1021
01:02:06,375 --> 01:02:08,625
<i>We will share the best one</i>
<i>on Instagram.</i>

1022
01:02:11,916 --> 01:02:14,375
{\an8}This sound will go everywhere.

1023
01:02:15,708 --> 01:02:17,541
Baila, baila, baila, baby!

1024
01:02:25,625 --> 01:02:29,333
<i>Hi, this is Lil' Pump. I'm coming to Dubai</i>
<i>to shoot the biggest song ever.</i>

1025
01:02:29,416 --> 01:02:33,041
<i>With Yo Yo Honey Singh and DJ Shadow.</i>
<i>We're making history. Let's get it!</i>

1026
01:02:43,958 --> 01:02:46,583
<i>The latest songs that he has made,</i>

1027
01:02:46,666 --> 01:02:50,416
<i>some were good</i>
<i>and some weren't very old school.</i>

1028
01:02:50,500 --> 01:02:52,958
He's making new songs,
but they aren't that great.

1029
01:02:53,041 --> 01:02:54,833
I like his old songs.

1030
01:02:54,916 --> 01:02:56,083
I'm a little disappointed.

1031
01:02:56,166 --> 01:03:00,750
A vibe like "Dope Shope…"

1032
01:03:00,833 --> 01:03:02,333
We are still waiting for that.

1033
01:03:02,416 --> 01:03:04,958
At one time, Honey's songs
would be played by every DJ.

1034
01:03:05,041 --> 01:03:06,916
Bring back the old you.

1035
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:10,708
Not exactly at the top of his game,
but he's going to get there soon.

1036
01:03:10,791 --> 01:03:12,791
I think he's already climbed the ladder.

1037
01:03:12,875 --> 01:03:16,500
So, after getting down,
he won't be able to climb that high.

1038
01:04:05,416 --> 01:04:09,041
<i>My audience from ten years back</i>
<i>was young then.</i>

1039
01:04:09,125 --> 01:04:11,333
<i>I used to write songs about alcohol,</i>

1040
01:04:11,416 --> 01:04:13,541
<i>smoking up and such things.</i>

1041
01:04:13,625 --> 01:04:14,875
<i>They enjoyed that.</i>

1042
01:04:14,958 --> 01:04:16,166
<i>Now they're all married.</i>

1043
01:04:16,250 --> 01:04:18,250
<i>Now they won't play it</i>
<i>for their children</i>

1044
01:04:18,333 --> 01:04:20,750
<i>if I sing songs</i>
<i>like "Manali Trance" again.</i>

1045
01:04:20,833 --> 01:04:22,916
<i>I don't want to make</i>
<i>gangster-like content.</i>

1046
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:25,416
<i>I had sung those in my youth…</i>
<i>"Panga" and others.</i>

1047
01:04:25,500 --> 01:04:27,291
<i>But people only want that from me.</i>

1048
01:04:27,375 --> 01:04:29,333
<i>So I don't understand</i>
<i>what I should do.</i>

1049
01:04:30,416 --> 01:04:31,541
<i>I don't feel like it.</i>

1050
01:04:31,625 --> 01:04:33,166
<i>I don't know. Let's see.</i>

1051
01:04:33,250 --> 01:04:35,875
<i>If nothing else works,</i>
<i>I will write and sing it</i>

1052
01:04:35,958 --> 01:04:37,958
<i>if that's all they want to hear from me.</i>

1053
01:04:39,958 --> 01:04:44,125
<i>I think he has a very good understanding</i>
<i>that he has to change with time.</i>

1054
01:04:44,208 --> 01:04:47,958
<i>And, with all these years,</i>
<i>we have seen that change in him.</i>

1055
01:04:49,291 --> 01:04:52,625
He's had time to kind of
reflect on and do all those things.

1056
01:04:52,708 --> 01:04:55,375
So maybe there'll be an understanding
or a shift in all that stuff.

1057
01:04:55,458 --> 01:04:58,083
But to me, I think,
it's part of an artist's journey.

1058
01:04:58,166 --> 01:05:00,083
{\an8}Taking everything
that's going on around them

1059
01:05:00,166 --> 01:05:01,625
{\an8}in the community and society,

1060
01:05:01,708 --> 01:05:03,875
{\an8}and how they navigate that
into their music,

1061
01:05:03,958 --> 01:05:06,958
and how they push that forward.
Man, that's being an artist.

1062
01:05:15,250 --> 01:05:16,291
Hello.

1063
01:05:24,541 --> 01:05:26,375
Good morning!

1064
01:05:26,458 --> 01:05:27,458
Hi.

1065
01:05:29,166 --> 01:05:30,250
I'm hungry.

1066
01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:32,083
Momos!

1067
01:05:33,291 --> 01:05:34,208
Manish!

1068
01:05:34,791 --> 01:05:36,708
- What are you making?
- Kadai chicken.

1069
01:05:36,791 --> 01:05:39,166
Making chicken in a <i>kadai.</i>
That's kadai chicken.

1070
01:05:40,291 --> 01:05:41,583
Give me some green juice.

1071
01:05:42,958 --> 01:05:44,000
Have a bite.

1072
01:05:44,833 --> 01:05:46,250
You eat. I'm not eating now.

1073
01:05:46,333 --> 01:05:47,500
- Huh?
- Not now.

1074
01:05:48,291 --> 01:05:49,958
No, I don't want to eat this.

1075
01:05:50,041 --> 01:05:52,916
- Manish, give me some green juice.
- That was unexpected.

1076
01:05:54,416 --> 01:05:55,583
That was unexpected.

1077
01:05:56,625 --> 01:05:57,791
Did you eat anything?

1078
01:05:57,875 --> 01:05:59,583
- Did you?
- Just get me some green juice.

1079
01:05:59,666 --> 01:06:01,791
Green juice? No momos?

1080
01:06:01,875 --> 01:06:03,333
- I don't feel like it.
- Why?

1081
01:06:03,416 --> 01:06:04,583
Okay, I'll eat later.

1082
01:06:08,791 --> 01:06:10,875
- Manish, get me some water.
- What?

1083
01:06:12,541 --> 01:06:13,833
Give him some water, son.

1084
01:06:30,791 --> 01:06:34,875
Listen, give me only
two pieces of chicken.

1085
01:06:34,958 --> 01:06:37,000
The chicken that Papa made.

1086
01:06:38,291 --> 01:06:40,208
This will taste best with bread.

1087
01:06:45,916 --> 01:06:46,916
It's yummy!

1088
01:06:47,666 --> 01:06:50,625
He really wants to…

1089
01:06:51,750 --> 01:06:53,750
adopt a child. A girl.

1090
01:06:53,833 --> 01:06:57,875
He often tells me.
I said, "Yes, let's adopt a child."

1091
01:07:00,666 --> 01:07:02,791
The date hasn't been announced yet?

1092
01:07:02,875 --> 01:07:04,916
Because I have a show on 19th.

1093
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:06,500
So…

1094
01:07:06,583 --> 01:07:09,625
It's in India. I mean,
I've to get back to India by the 17th.

1095
01:07:09,708 --> 01:07:11,333
I'm going to America now.

1096
01:07:11,416 --> 01:07:13,791
We have a corporate show on 10th.

1097
01:07:14,416 --> 01:07:18,708
It's going to be 75% whites
and 25% Indians.

1098
01:07:22,958 --> 01:07:24,125
Okay, bye.

1099
01:07:26,750 --> 01:07:29,375
Oh, it's raining heavily.

1100
01:07:29,458 --> 01:07:30,500
Bye.

1101
01:07:47,708 --> 01:07:50,708
Our show was
one day after we reached Chicago.

1102
01:07:51,958 --> 01:07:53,458
As we were coming out of the airport,

1103
01:07:53,541 --> 01:07:56,333
on a signboard,
it was written, "Chicago Loop."

1104
01:07:57,416 --> 01:07:59,291
And then it clicked, damn it, "Loop!"

1105
01:08:00,666 --> 01:08:05,000
Which city did I leave from
after the Slam Tour?

1106
01:08:05,083 --> 01:08:06,708
I thought, damn, it was Chicago!

1107
01:08:07,458 --> 01:08:08,791
We reached the hotel.

1108
01:08:09,750 --> 01:08:11,750
I told Indo, "Bro, it's the same hotel."

1109
01:08:11,833 --> 01:08:14,041
He asked "Same hotel?
We're here for the first time."

1110
01:08:14,125 --> 01:08:16,041
I said, "Remember we came here
nine years back?

1111
01:08:16,125 --> 01:08:17,791
When all that mayhem happened?"

1112
01:08:17,875 --> 01:08:21,166
Believe me, I entered and saw
that my suite was the same too."

1113
01:08:21,250 --> 01:08:22,666
It was the same TV.

1114
01:08:22,750 --> 01:08:26,916
The spot from where I had called
my mother and Gudiya on Skype,

1115
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:29,125
crying that I didn't want to do that show.

1116
01:08:29,208 --> 01:08:32,041
I felt as though I went back nine years.

1117
01:08:32,125 --> 01:08:33,250
I said, "No way.

1118
01:08:33,333 --> 01:08:34,833
God is testing me."

1119
01:08:35,583 --> 01:08:39,333
Next day, everything was normal.
Show day, so I woke up at 3:00 p.m.

1120
01:08:39,416 --> 01:08:41,833
As the show time approached,

1121
01:08:42,583 --> 01:08:45,125
I started getting anxious again.

1122
01:08:45,208 --> 01:08:47,333
The bad thoughts began coming up again.

1123
01:08:47,416 --> 01:08:51,916
That I had avoided my death back then.
But this time, I was sure to die.

1124
01:08:52,875 --> 01:08:54,083
And it's today.

1125
01:08:54,166 --> 01:08:55,750
It's written in Chicago.

1126
01:08:55,833 --> 01:08:57,000
I was trimming my beard

1127
01:08:57,083 --> 01:09:00,625
and flashes of me trimming my head
with the same trimmer come up.

1128
01:09:00,708 --> 01:09:04,125
And my hand kept going up,
"Should I trim them again today?"

1129
01:09:04,208 --> 01:09:05,875
I didn't know what to do.

1130
01:09:05,958 --> 01:09:08,416
I sat in the car and rang up my doctor.

1131
01:09:09,458 --> 01:09:10,791
My doctor is my angel.

1132
01:09:12,208 --> 01:09:13,333
He said, "What will happen?"

1133
01:09:13,416 --> 01:09:15,583
"You ruined it nine years ago.
Do the same thing again.

1134
01:09:15,666 --> 01:09:17,125
What can you do that's worse?

1135
01:09:17,208 --> 01:09:19,375
Ruin the show and come back. Don't worry.

1136
01:09:19,458 --> 01:09:22,541
Don't ruin your health.
If the show gets ruined, that's fine.

1137
01:09:23,125 --> 01:09:24,833
I felt lighter, when it struck me…

1138
01:09:24,916 --> 01:09:28,041
The worst that can happen is the show
getting ruined and me not performing.

1139
01:09:28,125 --> 01:09:30,125
I'm anxious. I'm scared.

1140
01:09:30,208 --> 01:09:33,458
I managed to perform, but I didn't make
any eye contact with the people.

1141
01:09:33,541 --> 01:09:38,708
Whether it's 2,000 or 20,000 people,
when I perform,

1142
01:09:38,791 --> 01:09:41,208
I make sure
I make eye contact with every person.

1143
01:09:41,291 --> 01:09:44,416
I get energy and strength from that.

1144
01:09:44,500 --> 01:09:46,166
By looking into my fans' eyes.

1145
01:09:47,500 --> 01:09:50,125
I was checking on the time continuously.

1146
01:09:50,208 --> 01:09:52,458
Time was up and we left.

1147
01:09:52,541 --> 01:09:55,000
After that when I sat in the car,
I felt relaxed.

1148
01:09:56,208 --> 01:09:57,666
That's all it was.

1149
01:09:58,958 --> 01:10:00,500
I said one thing on stage, though.

1150
01:10:00,583 --> 01:10:03,708
<i>I left this show midway last time,</i>
<i>because I got sick.</i>

1151
01:10:03,791 --> 01:10:06,166
<i>Because of you people, I came back.</i>

1152
01:10:06,916 --> 01:10:08,458
<i>You brought me back!</i>

1153
01:10:08,541 --> 01:10:12,916
I lost everything in this city.
So I had to complete the loop here.

1154
01:10:14,083 --> 01:10:17,458
I took my medication,
slept that night, woke up happy.

1155
01:10:17,541 --> 01:10:18,916
Completed my America tour.

1156
01:10:52,416 --> 01:10:57,375
A person can make a lot of plans,
but God decides

1157
01:10:57,458 --> 01:11:00,541
when some things
will be placed in your life.

1158
01:11:01,500 --> 01:11:03,875
Things will come into your life

1159
01:11:03,958 --> 01:11:07,500
at a predecided time and will also
go away when their time is up.

1160
01:11:08,916 --> 01:11:12,666
We can try our best
saying we did this and that,

1161
01:11:12,750 --> 01:11:14,333
I have built this empire…

1162
01:11:15,083 --> 01:11:17,000
I bought a bungalow, a mansion, a car…

1163
01:11:17,583 --> 01:11:19,875
God decides when things come,

1164
01:11:19,958 --> 01:11:23,166
and when He decides they won't,
they'll be gone.

1165
01:11:23,708 --> 01:11:26,750
Whatever projects, songs, films,

1166
01:11:26,833 --> 01:11:28,458
documentaries…

1167
01:11:28,541 --> 01:11:30,750
God has already written those stories.

1168
01:11:32,041 --> 01:11:35,708
All we're doing is enjoying them.

1169
01:11:40,083 --> 01:11:41,125
With so much,

1170
01:11:41,208 --> 01:11:44,458
I think my brother thinks
this way now too, "We'll handle it."

1171
01:11:45,416 --> 01:11:46,458
We'll fix it.

1172
01:11:48,041 --> 01:11:49,291
The worry will never go.

1173
01:11:50,083 --> 01:11:50,958
I don't know why…

1174
01:11:52,166 --> 01:11:54,583
What I know is that he's a fighter.

1175
01:11:55,333 --> 01:11:56,666
And he will fight.

1176
01:11:56,750 --> 01:12:00,833
If he can come back, not once,
not twice, not thrice…

1177
01:12:01,625 --> 01:12:04,708
He will come for the 1000th time again.
But he will come back.

1178
01:12:10,875 --> 01:12:14,083
<i>Earlier when I created something,</i>
<i>I used to be sure it will work.</i>

1179
01:12:14,166 --> 01:12:16,375
<i>Today, I have 52 songs in my bank.</i>

1180
01:12:16,458 --> 01:12:19,333
<i>I can't say about any one song,</i>
<i>"This will work for sure."</i>

1181
01:12:19,416 --> 01:12:21,125
<i>Not that my confidence is shaken.</i>

1182
01:12:21,208 --> 01:12:22,791
<i>But the scene has changed now.</i>

1183
01:12:22,875 --> 01:12:26,000
<i>No song runs for more than two weeks.</i>

1184
01:12:26,083 --> 01:12:28,333
<i>I'll have to understand this new trend.</i>

1185
01:12:28,416 --> 01:12:31,291
<i>When I made my entry first,</i>
<i>people thought,</i>

1186
01:12:31,375 --> 01:12:33,750
<i>"Where did this Honey Singh</i>
<i>suddenly come from?"</i>

1187
01:12:33,833 --> 01:12:36,208
<i>But I had been doing my homework</i>
<i>for ten years before that.</i>

1188
01:12:36,958 --> 01:12:39,250
<i>Now that homework has begun again.</i>

1189
01:12:42,333 --> 01:12:43,958
<i>Make some noise!</i>

1190
01:12:47,583 --> 01:12:49,625
<i>If someone disappears for seven minutes</i>

1191
01:12:49,708 --> 01:12:52,666
<i>or seven days,</i>
<i>people forget them instantly.</i>

1192
01:12:52,750 --> 01:12:55,375
<i>But even after seven-eight years</i>
<i>people still remember me,</i>

1193
01:12:55,458 --> 01:12:58,583
<i>listen to my songs, buy my tickets.</i>
<i>They come to see my shows.</i>

1194
01:12:58,666 --> 01:13:00,791
<i>So I just wanna keep trying</i>
<i>and keep going.</i>

1195
01:13:24,791 --> 01:13:27,250
Honey Singh! Honey Singh!

1196
01:13:41,416 --> 01:13:44,083
<i>Earlier you'd said that</i>
<i>this is gonna be your comeback year.</i>

1197
01:13:44,166 --> 01:13:46,083
<i>No, no. This is not the comeback.</i>

1198
01:13:46,166 --> 01:13:47,750
<i>I wanna blow the fucking world!</i>

1199
01:13:47,833 --> 01:13:51,125
<i>I'll make the world go crazy, once again.</i>

1200
01:13:54,083 --> 01:13:58,708
<i>The first shot of Part 2 will be Dr. Dre</i>
<i>and me sitting together in the studio.</i>

1201
01:13:59,791 --> 01:14:01,291
<i>And it will fucking happen.</i>

1202
01:15:08,666 --> 01:15:11,625
{\an8}I've to turn off this speaker.
Cameraman, move back, please.

1203
01:15:11,708 --> 01:15:14,208
{\an8}I turn this switch off
and the shop is closed.

1204
01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:16,375
{\an8}There, it's off.
