Badshah & Sunidhi on What’s Buzzing About ‘Dil Hai Hindustani 2’
Sunidhi Chauhan and Badshah will be judging the new season of ‘Dil Hai Hindustani,’ along with Pritam.
Playback singer Sunidhi Chauhan and rapper Badshah will be judging the second season of the reality show Dil Hai Hindustani, along with Bollywood singer Pritam. The show, which first aired on 7 January 2017, provides a platform for people from all over the world and of varying age groups to showcase their talent in Indian music.
Both artists are extremely excited to judge the show, though they have different reasons for being a part of it.
Badshah, on the other hand, is eager to spread awareness about rap as an art form. He feels that rap, along with dance and stand-up comedy, is not taken seriously as art forms, and that this misconception should change. That is one of the main reasons why he has chosen to be a judge on the show.
“But apart from that, I’m here to have fun as well, and have a better connection with the audience,” the rapper adds.
Badshah recognises the massive reach of television, while acknowledging that the scope of digital media is growing everyday.
Sunidhi goes on to talk about her experience of crooning the song Main Badhiya Tu Bhi Badhiya for the Sanjay Dutt biopic, Sanju.
She shares that many people did not recognise her voice in the song. “That was the idea,” she says, explaining that director Rajkumar Hirani specifically asked her to sing like people did in the old days, to create a sense of nostalgia.
But this wasn’t easy. Sunidhi says she struggled with the high pitch of the song, but managed to deliver eventually. She is now very excited to watch the final product on screen, and has high expectations from the film.
So, there is a lot to look forward to. The new season of Dil Hai Hindustani is scheduled to premiere soon, while Sanju is all set to release on 29 June.
