Emiway Bantai's prophet gave him a superstition to protect against evil eye: ‘Nothing can touch them, except death'
Indian rapper Emiway Bantai has just entered the vlogging sphere on the internet as he shared the first episode of his new vlog series on YouTube. The Bangalore-born, Mumbai-based artiste can be seen praying on the balcony of his luxurious Dubai apartment at the start of the video as he invited his fans for a sneak peek into his daily routine and practices. He is a new entry into the growing list of celebrities who have turned to vlogging recently, including Archana Puran Singh, and Farah Khan.
The video has been titled Day 2 Day episode-1, clearly indicating that Emiway is going to continue with this new video series. As mentioned before, he starts his day by praying on his balcony, which overlooks the Persian Gulf and the sprawling skyline of the city. After finishing up his prayers, the rapper talked about his habit of eating kalonji (nigella seeds) and how his prophet has advised him that 'whoever eats kalonji, nothing can touch them, except death.' He was presumably talking about evil eye and curses here. He said that the drink made with nigella seeds, ginger and turmeric helps him with his immunity.

The rapper then took out his laptop and put one of his songs on export before hitting the gym. He said, 'I will put it on export now, and I will listen to it while working out in the gym and think of what else I can do with the song. The one that I am working on right now is called 'Paisa'.' He added that he has been following the same routine for the last six months but decided to relax for last four days. He then got ready to hit the weights and shared the number of health supplements he takes before he starts his gym routine, including a pre-workout drink, creatine and an EAA protein supplement.
In some subtle shots scattered across the video, Emiway showcased his lavish home and some of the amenities that it comes with, including a fancy self-operational door lock. The rapper then shared some highlights from the gym and the beach, where he did some cardio to end his workout. He ended the day with working on some music at his home studio set-up, dinner comprising of meat, eggs and corn, and some more praying.
Interestingly, Emiway has been making a lot of noise lately, as the rapper's last released single was a tribute song for Sidhu Moosewala to honour his upcoming birth anniversary. Emiway's last studio album came out in 2023 and was titled 'King of the Street'.
