‘Indian Kanye West': Badshah's ‘I'd rather make babies with her' comment for Dua Lipa irks the internet

The rapper's response to a fan's question about a potential collaboration with the global pop star has sparked backlash online.

On Friday, Badshah took to X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, 'Dua Lipa ❤️.' A fan then asked if he was making a track with the singer, to which Badshah replied, 'I'd rather make babies with her, bro.' While some fans found his remark hilarious and praised his confidence, others called it inappropriate and tone-deaf.
A Reddit user shared his tweets on the platform and wrote, 'Badshah sir, ye kaisi Dua?' Another commented, 'WHAT'S WITH THIS 'HAVE BABIES' JOKE? How can you say that and not be so disgusted with yourself you want to bathe!' A third user said, 'EWWWWW, what a creep. Women really can't catch a break online or in real life.' Others added, 'Indian Kanye West,' 'This is disgusting,' and 'This is too much.' Some fans, however, made light of the comment.
Badshah recently raised eyebrows with his dramatic weight loss transformation. Some praised his new look, and others compared him to AP Dhillon. In 2022, he opened up about his weight loss journey during an appearance on Shilpa Shetty Kundra's show. He said, 'I had many reasons for losing weight. We did no shows during the lockdown, and when live performances resumed, I realised I didn't have the stamina. My work requires me to be active for 120 minutes or so when performing on stage. I started panting in just 15 minutes. As a performer, I have to give my best. That was a major reason.'
Meanwhile, Badshah is now gearing up for his The Un-Finished Tour in the US. The tour kicks off with a show in Virginia on September 5, followed by performances in New Jersey, the Bay Area, Seattle, and Dallas, before concluding on September 20 at Now Arena in Chicago.

Sidhu Moosewala's father writes to Mumbai Police to stop the proposed screening of a documentary about his son on June 11
Bathinda: The father of slain Punjabi rapper Sidhu Moosewala has called on Mumbai Police to block the public screening of a BBC documentary about his son's murder, alleging it could compromise the ongoing trial and infringe upon the family's rights. Balkaur Singh, father of the late artist — whose real name was Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu — has filed formal complaints with the Mumbai Police commissioner and Juhu police station, urging authorities to stop the screening scheduled for June 11 at Soho House, Juhu. The event, organised by the BBC World Service, is being advertised as an "investigative documentary" that claims to reveal hidden details about Moosewala's killing. Moosewala's father has also expressed concern that the film includes "unauthorised and unpublished" material, including private testimonies and sensitive information related to his son's life and death. He writes in his complaint that the documentary uses Moosewala's name, image and personal history without family consent, and could prejudice the ongoing murder trial. "The screening could misrepresent and exploit my son's story, interfere with judicial proceedings, and provoke public unrest due to the sensitive subject matter," Balkaur Singh wrote, warning the public that the film might violate Indian legal protections on privacy, defamation, and posthumous dignity. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Discover Effortless Glucose Monitoring: Request a Free Trial Dexcom Click Here Undo Enclosing a copy of the invitation, Balkaur Singh said the screening was set to run from 3 to 6 pm on June 11, and called for police intervention, including the deployment of officers at the venue and the issuance of prohibitory orders under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) or other applicable laws. He also claimed to be preparing civil and legal action against the film's producers and organisers. However, he emphasised that immediate steps were needed to "safeguard the dignity and legacy" of his late son and prevent the circulation of "unlawful or defamatory content." Sidhu Moosewala was shot during May 2022 in Punjab's Mansa district. His killing triggered public outrage and remains the subject of a high-profile criminal investigation. MSID:: 121696740 413 |

Karan Johar Reportedly Gets A Face Insurance; What Does It Really Mean?
Last Updated: Karan Johar has reportedly insured his face, inspired by a friend. Find out what does a face insurance really mean. Karan Johar has reportedly insured his face. Well, the filmmaker-producer has yet to confirm the development, but a viral Reddit post claimed so. Insurance of one's face or other bodily assets is becoming a popular trend. But what exactly does face insurance mean? Let's find out. What does face insurance mean? For actors, models, and high-profile influencers, appearance is more than just aesthetics – it's a crucial part of their brand and a main source of income. In these cases, the face becomes an asset worth protecting, and insurance companies are now offering specialised policies. Face insurance generally covers injuries, disfigurement, and other facial damages –whether from accidents, botched cosmetic procedures, or unexpected health issues – that could impair a celebrity's ability to work. This financial protection compensates for potential loss of earnings and, in some instances, medical expenses. Celebrities find it a logical progression for those whose careers heavily depend on their appearance. If an actor or model loses a significant endorsement due to facial damage, the financial impact can be substantial. Insurance also provides peace of mind and is often required by studios or brands. While the practice may seem extreme to some, it is similar to other forms of body-part insurance already popular among celebrities – from singers insuring their vocal cords to athletes covering their legs or hands. What is the rumour about Karan Johar's face insurance? A recent viral Reddit post claims KJo recently insured his face. The post recently caught everyone's attention by stating that KJo flew to South Korea to get his face insured. Reportedly, the filmmaker was 'inspired' by a close friend from the South film industry to take this step. 'Rumour has it Karan Johar secretly flew to South Korea multiple times to get… his face insured. Yup, inspired by a close friend, and apparently it's a trend there. Insiders say he's been way more chill since—smiling more, less snappy, even gave a rare compliment at work. No word from him yet, but now we're all wondering: does this cover acne, sunburns, wrinkles? And how much is that premium?!" the post read. Amitabh Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, John Abraham have insured their assets Karan Johar is not the first Indian celebrity to insure a body part. Amitabh Bachchan has his voice insured, and it is said that John Abraham has insured his buttocks. Hollywood celebs, too, have spent exorbitant amounts to insure their precious assets. Jennifer Lopez have reportedly insured her curves for a reported $27 million, while Mariah Carey insured her legs and vocal cords for an astonishing $70 million. David Beckham, renowned for his football skills and marketability, insured his legs for about $70 million during his career. Supermodel Heidi Klum insured her legs, with one leg reportedly valued higher due to a scar on the other. First Published:
