Indian rapper Badshah names his favourite Pakistani and no, it’s not Hania Aamir

Indian rapper and singer, Badshah took to answering some fan questions on Instagram Stories earlier this week, where he was asked who his favourite person from Pakistan is. The rapper then revealed that his favourite Pakistani was none other than the legendary pop icon, Nazia Hassan.

Badshah replied to the fan by simply posting a picture of the Boom Boom singer to his Instagram Story, along with the question, and captioned it, “Quite a few but she’d always be the most favourite.” Which makes us curious: just how many classic Pakistani pop hits is Badshah secretly jamming to on his headphones?

Fans of both the rapper and pop singer were thrilled at this revelation, as they flooded the comments section of those that reported the news. “The queen of pop music,” an Instagram user commented. Another wrote, “Nazia Hassan the legend, our childhood queen.” One user even stated that Nazia was “beloved all over the world.”

Another Pakistani Badshah has publicly praised is actor Hania Aamir. The pair’s frequent interactions fuelled dating rumours among both Pakistani and Indian fans that fully kicked off when the actor took to her Instagram Story to extend warm birthday wishes to Badshah. Since then, the two were spotted hanging out in Dubai multiple times. Hania has put any rumours regarding a romantic involvement between the two to bed. While on a recent podcast, she stated, “I sometimes think that my only problem is I am not married because if I was, I would have been away from so many of these rumours.”

Even after the actor debunked these rumours and acknowledged that their relationship was merely platonic, the fact that Badshah failed to name Hania as his favourite person from Pakistan did not go unnoticed by fans as they commented, “Hania Aamir crying in the corner,” and “Hania must be jealous.”
