Singer Yo Yo Honey Singh was on a roll when he was churning out back-to-back chartbusters in Bollywood. He delivered bangers like Cocktail, Chennai Express, Yaariyaan, Ragini MMS 2, Bhoothnath Returns, Boss, and Khiladi 786. The singer has spoken openly about his battle with depression and alcoholism and how it took his career to an asbolute ebb.

In an episode of ABtalks podcast, the singer opened his heart out and said, “I was not in my senses. My ideology was different at that time. When I made it, I used to walk differently, talk differently, and disrespect everyone. I used to think that I did it all. I even used to call myself God. I didn’t like that version of myself.”

What Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar said

“
They used to observe me and tell me to stay away from what I was doing because it was wrong. Especially Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar. Shah Rukh Khan told me many times, ‘This is going to spoil you, finish you, and destroy you.’”

The controversy of the singer

But 
Honey Singh has landed in another massive controversy after a video of the singer surfaced from Delhi. At Nanku and Karun’s Delhi concert, the singer said something that has invited a lot of backlash- “Sisterf****r, the cold of Delhi! It’s so much more fun to have sex in the car, in this cold. Have sex in the car, in the cold of Delhi. Use condoms, guys, please. Play safe!”

The singer on his addiction

In an interview with The Lallantop, the singer said, “Few big names, few very big names, very influential names. And they teased me, ‘Arey, Sardar bada tu Punjabi hai, daaru pee leta hai, yeh karke dikha.’ Main kaha, ‘Kya hai ismei, do karta hu.’ Kuch hua hi nahi. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, phir uski addiction lag gayi. [They said, ‘Sardar, you are a Punjabi and drink alcohol, now do this. I said, ‘What’s the problem, give and I will do’. Nothing happened. Gradually I got addicted.”
