Badshah asks his dad to break down his outfit—the hilarious response will leave you in splits
Rapper Badshah recently shared a BTS glimpse with his fans that has gone viral on social media. The rapper asks his dad for a "drip check" in a now-viral Instagram reel, but instead of receiving praise, he receives a dose of traditional dad-level transparency. No matter how well-known you are, a desi father will always keep you grounded. This is shown when Badshah boldly displays his attire and requests a style breakdown, and his father hilariously mocks every piece. Watch the video here: "How much do you think this coat cost?" Badshah asks as the camera pans in on his father's outfit. 'I think this is at least ten years old,' his father says without hesitation. His father gives the ideal response when Badshah presses once more, "How much did it cost?" "Someone gave it," he says without missing a beat. The rapper continues by repeating the question while pointing to his shoes. In keeping with his tradition, his father remarks, "Those are from your wedding—cost around ₹4,000 back then." When Badshah finally inquires about the tie, he is met with the final zinger: "Even this is also given by someone." The internet is in splits as the entire moment is delivered with the ideal balance of fatherly sass and sarcastic humor. On the work front, Badshah is preparing for The Unfinished Tour 2025, which will take him across the United States, with stops scheduled in Seattle, Chicago, Dallas, and other cities. He is also preparing to make his debut in a fashion show, which will be a significant milestone for Indian representation in international fashion. Following the success of his album Ek Tha Raja, which received over 350 million streams, Badshah is currently working independently on a new hip-hop album.
