After standing tall on the music charts and being on a massive career high, Yo Yo Honey Singh left everyone in shock after he decided to quit the industry post suffering from alcoholism and depression. After remaining on a break, he did bounce back and proved all of his detractors wrong.
He has a documentary on Netflix and in an interview with The Lallantop, the singer said, “Few big names, few very big names, very influential names. And they teased me, ‘Arey, Sardar bada tu Punjabi hai, daaru pee leta hai, yeh karke dikha.’ Main kaha, ‘Kya hai ismei, do karta hu.’ Kuch hua hi nahi. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, phir uski addiction lag gayi. [They said, ‘Sardar, you are a Punjabi and drink alcohol, now do this. I said, ‘What’s the problem, give and I will do’. Nothing happened. Gradually I got addicted.”
It is pertinent to note that Honey Singh has struggled with several issues and has seen the darkest of times, besides the stardom that he enjoyed. Speaking of which, Honey Singh has on several instances opened up on his journey and struggles.
