Several years ago, it had been reported that Yo Yo Honey Singh was slapped by Shah Rukh Khan during a tour they did together. Neither Honey Singh nor SRK ever spoke about it. This tour in particular took place in the United States and the reports also suggested that Honey Singh had to take stitches on his head after SRK hit him.
In a recent documentary, based on the life of the rapper, the alleged incident is finally being addressed.
“Now, nine years later, let me tell you what really happened. Nobody knows what I’m going to tell you on camera now. Someone started the rumor that Shah Rukh Khan slapped me. That man loves me he’ll never raise his hand on me,” said the rapper.
He continued, “When they took me to Chicago for the show, I said, ‘I don’t want to perform’. I was sure that i was going to die during that show… My managers came over and they said, ‘Why aren’t you getting ready?’ I said, ‘I’m not going’.” Honey also mentioned the lengths he went up to avoid his performance such as trimming off his hairs and smashing a coffee mug on his head.
He explained that smashing coffee mug was how he got injured and was the reason for him to get stitches.
