Baba Sehgal Says South Industry Took Him 'Seriously': 'Bollywood Was Very Insecure With Me'
Last Updated: Baba Sehgal shared in 1998, he received a threat call from the underworld. At the time, such calls were common in the industry, but the rapper never expected to be on their radar. Popular rapper and music artist Baba Sehgal has opened up about his difficult relationship with the Hindi film industry, claiming that Bollywood was never fully supportive of his talent. In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, the singer revealed that the South Indian film industry treated him with far more respect and seriousness. 'South took me seriously," Baba Sehgal said, referring to his extensive work in regional music. 'I have done more than 250 Telugu film songs, 35–40 Tamil songs, and over 25 Kannada songs. Not only rap, I think the Telugu industry is my 'jungdata' (warrior). Bollywood was very insecure with me, right from the beginning." He explained that his straightforward personality might have clashed with Bollywood's expectations. 'Music directors would call me, but maybe they didn't like my body language or the way I spoke. Maybe I was too upfront," he shared. Baba rose to national fame in the early 1990s with Indipop hits like Thanda Thanda Paani, but his non-film success, he believes, made the Hindi film music circuit uncomfortable. In a striking revelation, Baba also shared that in 1998, he received a threat call from the underworld. At the time, such calls were common in the industry, but the rapper never expected to be on their radar. 'The underworld was very strong in 1998. I never thought I'd get a call because I was just a singer. But somehow, I too got one," he recalled. 'That time was very stressful – for me and for my family." According to Baba, the call wasn't about money but rather a directive to stop singing. 'They told me to stop making music. The tone wasn't very aggressive, but it was serious," he said. 'They used to call at night. It was a terrifying phase." Despite the threats, Baba continued to chart his own musical journey outside of Bollywood, relying on the support of his fan base and the South industry. He also spoke about the overall instability in the entertainment world during the late '90s. 'It was a confusing time. Non-film music crashed, remixes came in, and the underworld had entered the scene. The whole industry was shaken not just me," he said. First Published:
