Badshah's ‘Would Rather Make Babies With Dua Lipa' Comment Sparks Online Backlash
Recently, Badshah has surprised fans by showing off a noticeably leaner and fitter frame. The rapper revealed his struggles with stamina during live performances.
Badshah has been making waves on social media — not with a new song, but with a bold tweet about international pop star Dua Lipa. The rapper recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to post a simple message: 'Dua Lipa ❤️". While it seemed like a casual appreciation post, the internet went into overdrive when a fan replied asking if the rapper was planning a music collaboration with her. Badshah's cheeky response? 'I'd rather make babies with her bro."
His unfiltered remark quickly went viral, prompting reactions ranging from amusement to criticism. Some fans found it hilarious and praised his confidence, while others called it inappropriate and tone-deaf. Nonetheless, the tweet added fuel to the ongoing buzz around the rapper, especially after his dramatic physical transformation.

Recently, Badshah has surprised fans by showing off a noticeably leaner and fitter frame. The rapper, who is known for tracks like DJ Waley Babu, Genda Phool, and Mercy, revealed his struggles with stamina during live performances. Speaking to Shilpa Shetty on her wellness show, he said, 'My work involves me moving around for 120 minutes or so when performing on stage," adding that earlier he would start panting just 15 minutes in.
As his photos began circulating online, some speculated whether the rapper had used weight-loss medication like Ozempic. Addressing the rumors, Badshah firmly denied taking any shortcuts. He credited his transformation to consistent workouts and a healthier lifestyle. According to reports, he has lost more than 20 kilograms.
On the professional front, Badshah has been actively releasing music. His recent tracks include Naina, Khwabida, Gore Gore Mukhde Pe, and Gori Hai Kalaiyan. The 39-year-old artist, who initially rose to fame with DJ Waley Babu in 2018, also tried his hand at acting with the 2019 film Khandani Shafakhana, co-starring Sonakshi Sinha and Varun Sharma.

Vijay Sethupathi breaks silence on sexual abuse, casting couch allegations: 'My family...'
Actor Vijay Sethupathi is one of Tamil cinema's most respected actors. He has been making headlines recently for being accused of sexually abusing a girl. The claims, made by an X (formerly Twitter) user named Ramya Mohan, quickly drew attention before the tweets were deleted. While Ramya didn't directly mention the victim's name or provide specific dates, she accused Vijay Sethupathi. Now, the actor has finally issued a statement reacting to these claims. He has categorically dismissed the allegations and stated that he remains unfazed, confirming that he has initiated legal action in response. What has Vijay Sethupathi said about sexual abuse allegations against him? Vijay Sethupathi has broken his silence on the casting couch accusations and told in his statement to Deccan Chronicle journalist Subhash K Jha, 'Anyone who knows me even remotely will laugh at this. I know myself too.' Sethupathi continued by saying that his family is upset. 'This kind of filthy accusation can't upset me. My family and close friends are upset, but I tell them, 'Let it slide. This woman is obviously doing it to be noticed. She has her few minutes of fame, let her enjoy it', he added. Sethupathi concluded and made it clear that he intends to pursue the matter legally. He said, 'We've complained to cybercrime. I've faced all kinds of whispering campaigns for seven years. Such targeting has not affected me so far. It never will.' What are the allegations against Vijay Sethupathi? In the deleted post, user Ramya Mohan alleged actor Vijay Sethupathi is involved in promoting a toxic culture within the film industry. Her post involved words like drugs, manipulation, casting couch practices, and exploitation of vulnerable individuals. The long-deleted post read: 'Kollywood's drug & casting couch culture isn't a joke. A girl I know now a known face in media was dragged into a world she never signed up for. She's now in rehab center. Dr**, manipulation, and transactional exploitation disguised as industry norm. @VijaySethuOffl has offered Rs. 2L for 'caravan favors', Rs. 50k for 'drives' and acts like saint on social media. She was used by him for years. This isn't one story. It's many and the media worships these men like they are saints. The drug-sx nexus is real. Not a joke.' The social media user expressed frustration over the lack of empathy from the public in another post. She said, 'It's insane how some insensitive morons are more focused on questioning the source or blaming the victim than actually acknowledging the truth. This truth hit the family like a storm when they went through her diary and phone chats. This wasn't just some story. This was her life, her pain…'
