Indian rapper Badshah has found himself at the center of a major online controversy after making a controversial comment about British pop star Dua Lipa. It all began when Badshah posted a tweet saying “Dua Lipa ❤️.” When a fan asked whether the two artists would ever collaborate, Badshah replied, “I’d rather make babies with her, bro.” The response sparked immediate backlash across social media, with many users labeling the remark as “cheap,” “creepy,” and “tone-deaf.” Reddit and Twitter users criticized the rapper for what they saw as an objectifying and inappropriate comment, especially in the context of a public figure speaking about a woman he’s never publicly interacted with. As the criticism mounted, Badshah responded by defending his words rather than issuing an apology. He claimed that his statement was meant as a compliment, stating, “I think one of the most beautiful compliments that you could give to a woman that you really admire is to wish for her to mother your children.” He further added, “Meri soch nahi, tumhari soch saamne aayi hai,” implying that the backlash was more reflective of his critics' mindset than his own intentions. This response did little to calm the storm, with many social media users doubling down on their disapproval, arguing that such remarks perpetuate objectification under the guise of admiration. Adding fuel to the fire, rapper Honey Singh—Badshah’s long-time rival—entered the conversation with a sarcastic jab. Commenting on a post about the controversy, Honey Singh wrote, “Genius,” a remark widely interpreted as a mockery of Badshah’s explanation. The comment has revived public interest in the simmering feud between the two music stars, with fans and media speculating whether this might escalate into another round of public sparring. While some fans have defended Badshah, insisting his comment was harmless and humorous, others see it as an example of celebrity entitlement and the normalization of problematic behavior. The episode has sparked broader conversations about respect, language, and boundaries in public discourse especially in an era where even casual remarks are instantly scrutinized by millions. Whether this controversy will have a lasting impact on Badshah’s public image or simply fade into the ever spinning cycle of online outrage remains to be seen.
