If I’m Rolls-Royce, Badshah is Nano: Honey Singh

March 11, 2016

Mumbai, Mar 11: They may have collaborated earlier on hit songs but now, rapper Honey Singh says the difference between his music and singer Badshah’s is that of a Rolls-Royce and a Nano. The duo worked together for six years until 2012 and collaborated on songs including tracks like “Get up Jawani” and “Khol Botal”. Badshah launched his first single in 2006 with Honey. During Honey’s ‘break’ from the music scene, Badshah gave chartbusters like “DJ Waley Babu” and the recent “Kar gayi chull” from “Kapoor & Sons”.

honeyWhen asked if Badshah has taken over the music scene in his absence, Honey told reporters, “Have you driven a Rolls -Royce? There is a difference between a Rolls-Royce (an ultra luxury car brand) and a Nano (the world’s cheapest car).” The 32-year-old singer was speaking at the trailer launch of his upcoming Punjabi film “Zorawar”. Honey’s last Bollywood song was 2015?s “Aankhon Aankhon” from Kunal Kemmu-starrer “Bhaag Johnny”.

The “Lungi Dance” singer, who reportedly was in rehab, did not divulge the reason for his absence but said it was an “important phase” of his life. “It’s a long story, I had disappeared for almost 18 months. There were lots of rumours about where I was. But today I’ll talk about my movie, very soon I’ll give an interview where I’ll tell you the entire story about what had happened with me. That’s an important phase of my life.” It was also reported that Honey had a fight with superstar Shah Rukh Khan during the latter’s world tour, but the “Angreji Beat” hitmaker dismissed the reports. “Nothing like that happened. We have great relations (with each other).

I met him after one-and-a-half years at an award function (recently), we couldn’t meet earlier.” “Zorawar” will feature Honey making his debut as a lead actor in films. He was earlier seen in Himesh Reshammiya’s “The Xpose”. The “Chaar Botal Vodka” singer says he wanted to try his hands at acting and feels it was a challenging task. “I don’t consider myself just a rapper or singer. I am a music producer, lyricist, poet… Acting is also a part of big entertainment. So it was something which was left. It is a tough job to portray a character and make it believable on screen.” Directed by Vinnil Markan, “Zorawar” is scheduled to release on May 6.

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie feels discrimination and impunity cannot be justified in any way, and says she hopes people in the US can come together to "address the deep structural wrongs in our society".

The Oscar-winning star, who turned 45 on Thursday, also donated $200,000 to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, reports people.com.

"Rights don't belong to any one group to give to another. Discrimination and impunity cannot be tolerated, explained away or justified. I hope we can come together as Americans to address the deep structural wrongs in our society," Jolie said.

"I stand with the NAACP Legal Defense Fund in their fight for racial equality, social justice, and their call for urgent legislative reform," she added.

Meanwhile, the actress celebrated her birthday amid lockdown with her six children -- Maddox, 18, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and 11-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

The actress and activist has been active since the COVID-19 pandemic spread around the world and has donated to different organisations.

Jolie previously donated $1 million to No Kid Hungry, the organisation working to feed children during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"I knew that there were problems in America, that there was poverty, but I could not believe when I realised how many school children in America were dependent on a meal to not go hungry. I was so disgusted that we have gotten to this point as a country and that we would let the most vulnerable be in such a state. I can't imagine what it feels like for those parents," she said while opening up about her reason to get associated with the organisation.

Mumbai, Apr 2: Ramayan, the over three-decade-old TV series based on Hindu mythology, garnered 170 million viewers in four shows over the last weekend in its new avatar, the BARC said on Thursday.

This catapulted the Ramanand Sagar production as the highest watched serial in the Hindi general entertainment space ever, the Broadcast Audience Research Council said.

The show was relaunched last Saturday amid the gloomy times of lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and a lot of thrust laid by the government machinery to popularise the series.

BARC's chief executive Sunil Lulla said the numbers notched up by the series was a bit surprising and called the move as a brilliant one by the Prasar Bharti.

He said eventually, we will also see advertisers flock the series which will be running for a few more days.

The inaugural show of the series on Saturday morning had 34 million viewers glued to their TV sets watching and enjoyed a rating of 3.4 per cent, while a telecast the same evening had 45 million viewers and a rating of 5.2 per cent.

The show bettered its performance on Sunday, with 40 million and 51 million people watching it in the morning and evening telecasts, respectively.

New Delhi, Jun 20: Taking cues from her own experience, actor Deepika Padukone on Saturday emphasised that people suffering from depression cannot 'snap out' of the mental health condition.

Continuing with her daily practice of posting mental health messages for people struggling with depression and other issues, Padukone posted the recent message on social media.

"Repeat after me: You cannot 'snap out' of depression," Padukone wrote on Twitter.

Padukone had started with the series of mental health quotes after the sudden demise of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who committed suicide by hanging himself at his Bandra residence in Mumbai.

The 'Tamasha' actor started voicing her opinion on the importance of mental health through her foundation 'The Live Love Laugh Foundation' (TLLLF) in June 2015. Through the platform, the actor keeps launching nationwide awareness as well as destigmatisation campaigns.

Meanwhile, scores of comments followed on her latest post on mental health, where netizens too shared their take on mental health.
