During a recent interview with The Lallantop, Honey Singh held his “glorifying satanic powers” responsible for his “life’s downward turn” while paid rich tributes to Prophets of Islam particularly Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
His respect for the religious personalities has garnered significant attention, particularly a segment where the artist spoke about his introduction to Islam and his spiritual journey.
During the interview, he said, “When I was in Punjab, I was introduced to Islam, though I was an atheist at the time. Through some saints, I learned about Musa alaihis-salam Prophet Moses, Sallahualiwasalam Prophet Mohammed, and the role of Isa alaihis salam in the Quran and Islam. I used to listen and it created a very different atmosphere when I sat with those saints.”
He added, “This was before I became Honey Singh, before I was famous. You won’t believe it, but when my time came in 2011-2012, and I gained fame, I should have been grateful to the Almighty. Instead, I began glorifying satanic powers. That’s when my mind started to deteriorate, and my life took a downward turn.”
Singh has captivated global audiences with chart-topping hits like Brown Rang, High Heels, Blue Eyes, Love Dose, and Desi Kalakaar. Once hailed as Bollywood’s highest-paid music artist, Honey Singh also made his mark in cinema with roles in films like The Xpose, Zorawar, Mirza: The Untold Story, and Tu Mera 22 Main Tera 22.
Now, viewers are praising Honey Singh for the respect and reverence with which he spoke about Islam.
One user commented, “The way he mentioned prophets is amazing with respect.” Another added, “How respectfully he talks about Islam…! Bravo.” A third wrote, “Bhai Tu Aise he Favourite nahi hai mera.”
However, Honey Singh has not declared his conversion to the world’s fastest growing religion.
