00:00In his first concert in two years, Honey Singh took potshots at Badshah and Raftaar, reigniting
00:13an old feud that shaped Indian hip-hop. But what's the beef? Let's rewind. To the 2000s.
00:19Before Badshah became a chart-topping rapper and Raftaar built his independent career,
00:23they were all part of a group called Mafia Mundir, led by Honey Singh.
00:27But things didn't stay friendly.
00:35Internal disputes, creative differences and money matters led to an ugly split.
00:39Badshah and Raftaar went their separate ways,
00:42and they didn't hold back from calling out Honey Singh in interviews.
00:48Raftaar once claimed that Honey Singh took credit for songs he didn't write.
00:52Badshah hinted at unfair treatment in the group. Honey Singh, on the other hand,
00:56dismissed these allegations until now. At his Mumbai concert,
01:00Honey Singh took a dig at Raftaar, saying,
01:19a clear tone suggesting Raftaar's career is fading, and calling out Badshah directly.
01:25Well, Honey Singh has been trying to reclaim his throne after battling health issues.
01:30Meanwhile, Badshah and Raftaar have solidified their places in the industry.
01:34Could this be a way to spark controversy and grab attention? Fans are divided.
01:38Some are excited to see the rivalry reignited, while others think it's just a PR stunt.
01:42What do you think? Is this real hip-hop beef or just another marketing gimmick?
