Indian rapper Badshah has recently caught everyone’s attention, not for a new song, but for a surprising tweet about global pop sensation Dua Lipa. The popular rapper, known for his hit songs and flamboyant style, posted a tweet that instantly became a viral topic. His tweet simply read, “Dua Lipa (with a red heart),” which sparked a wave of speculation, curiosity, and reactions online. One tweet was all it took for fans to wonder if something big was coming, like a collaboration.
However, what really set the internet on fire was Badshah’s cheeky response to a fan’s reply. When someone asked if he was planning a music collab with Dua Lipa, Badshah replied, “I’d rather make babies with her bro.” The bold response received mixed reactions. While many found it hilarious and praised his confidence, others criticised the statement, calling it inappropriate and tone-deaf. One fan said, “This guy has guts, love the confidence,” while another replied, “Not cool. That’s a weird thing to say publicly.” The tweet quickly spread across platforms like X and Instagram, adding fuel to ongoing discussions about celebrity behaviour on social media.

Aside from the buzz his tweet caused, Badshah has also been making headlines for his dramatic weight loss. Fans were stunned to see the rapper looking much leaner and fitter in recent appearances. In a chat with Shilpa Shetty on her wellness show, Badshah opened up about his transformation. He shared that earlier, during live performances, he would start panting after just 15 minutes. “My job involves moving around for almost 120 minutes while performing on stage,” he explained. To improve his stamina, he committed to regular workouts and a healthier lifestyle. He also cleared up rumours about using weight-loss medication like Ozempic, saying his fitness journey was entirely natural.
Reports say the rapper has shed more than 20 kilograms, and the transformation hasn’t gone unnoticed. Social media has been flooded with praise for his dedication. Fans and fitness enthusiasts have applauded him for his hard work, saying it’s inspiring to see a public figure embrace a healthier lifestyle in a genuine way.
