Badshah recently proved that he’s the undisputed king not only when it comes to making fiery raps but also when it comes to losing weight. The rapper-singer created quite a stir when he showed off his new, lean look in a now-viral video.

A video shared on the official page of his clothing brand showcases Badshah discussing his upcoming collection. The clip immediately caught the attention of fans, sparking a wave of reactions online. One curious viewer commented, “Bhai, how did you get so slim? Drop some tips!” Another user questioned, “Is it just me, or does he resemble AP Dhillon a bit?” Meanwhile, someone else jokingly wrote, “AP Dhillon, stop hiding and come from your real account! ” Another admirer applauded his progress, commenting, “What an incredible transformation! ”

Netizens React

The video rapidly gained traction across social media, with fans flooding the comments section, expressing both amazement and admiration for his drastic physical change. Many praised Badshah’s unwavering commitment to fitness, acknowledging the effort and discipline behind his transformation. Others, however, couldn’t help but draw comparisons between him and singer AP Dhillon, pointing out their newfound resemblance.


One Instagram user wrote, "Is it just me or he is looking a bit like AP Dhillon?" Another commented, "Ek minute ye badsha he ya ap dhillon."

Beyond Instagram, the video also made waves on Reddit, where discussions took an interesting turn. Some users speculated whether Badshah’s weight loss was linked to the popular weight management drug, Ozempic. “Ozempic has made everyone lose weight!” one user remarked. Another chimed in, “First Karan Johar, now Badshah—is everyone hopping on the Ozempic trend?”

The renowned rapper has openly discussed his journey toward achieving better physical health and his unwavering commitment to leading a more active lifestyle. Over the past several years, he has undergone a remarkable transformation, embracing fitness with such dedication that his fans and social media followers have been left in awe. His persistence and hard work are clearly reflected in his most recent pictures and workout clips, showcasing his incredible progress.

In April 2022, Badshah candidly spoke about his weight loss journey and the key factors that pushed him to focus on his well-being. While appearing on Shilpa Shetty Kundra’s talk show, he detailed the pivotal moments that led to his lifestyle change.

He revealed, "There were several reasons behind my decision to lose weight. During the lockdown, live performances came to a halt. However, when events resumed, I quickly realized that my endurance was not what it used to be. Since my profession demands that I remain highly energetic on stage for nearly two hours, I found it alarming that I would run out of breath within just fifteen minutes. As an artist, giving my best performance is crucial, and this was one of the major reasons for my transformation."

He further elaborated on another significant health concern that prompted his decision. "I was dealing with sleep apnea, and the condition kept worsening over time. It is a serious issue that many people may not be aware of. Essentially, sleep apnea leads to severe snoring and can be quite dangerous. I struggled with it for a long time, but after making significant changes in my lifestyle, the problem has completely disappeared," he explained.

While maintaining his newfound fitness regime, Badshah continues to thrive in the music industry, consistently delivering chart-topping hits. His extensive list of blockbuster songs includes "Genda Phool," "Garmi," "Jugnu," "DJ Wale Babu," "Paani Paani," and "Kar Gayi Chul."
