Honey Singh reveals he has a “short rap” in Salman Khan starrer Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan; says, “Salman Khan called me in Hyderabad and gave me a chance to perform”

Honey Singh admitted on a podcast with Raj Shamani that he doesn't have any pals but does have mentors and godbrothers. Honey said, “Akshay Kumar, Shah Rukh Khan and even Amitabh Bachchan, he is like my godfather. Bachchan saab ne apne sath khada hone ka chance de diya. They have given me a chance; they have stood by me when I was out of the scene and was unwell. Honestly, I was focussed on independent music and wasn’t keen on Bollywood. But last year, Akshay paaji said that I want you in my film Selfiee. He just said you are back, looking fit and happy. Salman bhai also gave me a short rap in Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan. He called me in Hyderabad and gave me a chance to perform. They are such wise people; working with them is such a blessing. There are lots of people more talented than me, but I feel I am gifted by God.”

Additionally, he discussed his time working with Shah Rukh Khan and how the actor gave him valuable guidance. He said, “Around 10 years back, he asked me how do you work. I said that from my heart. He told me SRK, AR Rahman, Gulzar and Mani Ratnam made a film Dil Se (from heart) but it flopped. He told me that once in a while you also have to work using your mind. That’s when I decided that while I will use my heart while making the audio, I will use my mind when packaging it.”

Honey also recounted a time when he questioned SRK about not acting in any action movies when they were on tour abroad. To which Shah Rukh replied, “I currently have a zone set, but I'll do it in ten years. And after that, I'll create a body as no one else has ever done it. And look, he did it today.”
