"Jab mujhe shohorat milne lagi, tab upar wale ka shukrana karna chaiye tha. but I started glorifying satanic powers and tabse meri zindagi aur dimag kharab honi shuru ho gay." He said even his songs, he didn't respect the divine but glorified negative aspects.?

"If you look at me in This Party Getting Hot video, that is not me; that is somebody else. I am not ashamed, but galti insaan nahi karta. Humare kismat mein likhi hoti hai ki yeh insaan yeh sab karega, aur upar wala bless karta hai ki humko yeh galti realise karwa dete hain. It was needed or I would not have reached where I am today," he added.?

He added that his song Chaar Bottle Vodka was also influenced by Satanic thoughts. He wrote it down after getting drunk in Australia during a world tour with Shah Rukh Khan. When he made Khan hear the song, he told him, "Are you crazy?"

2. Substance abuse

3. Relationship with Badshah and Raftaar

Talking about his strained relationship and tiff with Badshah and Raftaar, he said he would never ever collaborate with his "client" Badshah ever again. "Badshah ne jitne mere upar diss gane nikale hai, usse kahi zayada Raftaar ne nikale hai. Lekin mai Raftaar ki izzat karta hu kyuki voh, streets se utha hua talent hai aur maine usko usko pick kiya tha, voh baat aur hai ki baad mai voh kisi ke kehne pe mere hi khilaf ho gaya."

I did terrible things. I almost left Shalini and forgot about the family," he said.?
