In an unexpected turn of events, popular singer-rapper Badshah publicly ended his decade-long feud with fellow artist Honey Singh. The two renowned rappers, once close collaborators, had been estranged due to a misunderstanding. This significant reconciliation took place during a recent concert in Dehradun.
At GraFest 2024 in Dehradun, Badshah paused his performance to address the audience with a heartfelt message. The 38-year-old rapper expressed his desire to let go of past grievances and move forward.
“There was a phase in my life where I held this grudge against one, and now, I want to call it quits and leave that grudge behind—and that’s Honey Singh,” Badshah said, acknowledging the long-standing tension between them.
Letting Go of the Past
Badshah admitted that his unhappiness stemmed from a misunderstanding between him and Honey Singh. Reflecting on their past collaboration, he realized that while many people tried to tear them apart, few tried to keep them together.
“I was unhappy because of some misunderstanding, but then I realized when we were together, ‘jodne waale bahut kam the, todneh waale bahut the’ (there were few who tried to unite us, and many who tried to separate us). Today, I just want to let everyone know I’ve left that phase behind, and I wish him all the best,” he added.
Badshah and Honey Singh’s Feud History
Badshah and Honey Singh are two of the most prominent rappers in India, with massive fan followings.

The group produced several hit tracks, such as “Khol Botal,” “Begani Naar Buri,” and “Delhi ke Deewane.”
However, a public disagreement led to their separation, and the duo frequently took jabs at each other on social media, fueling their feud. Despite their differences, both artists continued to achieve significant success in their solo careers.
Moving Forward
As of now, Honey Singh, who is 41 years old, has not yet commented on Badshah’s statement. However, fans are hopeful that this gesture will pave the way for a renewed friendship and possibly future collaborations between the two artists.
