"That was the biggest mistake of my life," Honey Singh said while reflecting on his career after achieving fame and wealth in 2012.

During a recent interview with an Indian journalist, he was talking about his journey of learning about Islam through spiritual leaders and Sufis.

He openly discussed his exploration of Islamic teachings and how it shaped his understanding of faith.

The India’s popular rapper and singer held his “glorifying satanic powers” responsible for his “life’s downward turn” while paying rich tributes to Prophets of Islam particularly Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

During the interview with The Lallantop, 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 Prophet Moses, Prophet Mohammed, and the role of Prophet Jesus in the Quran and Islam. I used to listen and it created a very different atmosphere when I sat with those saints.”

He maintained, “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.”

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.”

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.
