Netflix is set to release a documentary on Indian rapper and singer Yo Yo Honey Singh on Dec 20. Titled Yo Yo Honey Singh: Famous, the film traces the music icon’s journey from fame to adversity and his eventual comeback.
The platform recently unveiled the trailer, offering a glimpse into the documentary’s in-depth portrayal of Honey Singh’s life.
Directed by Mozez Singh and produced by Sikhya Entertainment, known for its Oscar-winning productions, the documentary will provide a comprehensive look at Honey Singh’s personal and professional life. It includes unseen footage and candid accounts from his family, friends, and collaborators.
Speaking about the film, Honey Singh said, “For years, there have been countless conjectures about me in the media, and I have never really shared my side of the story. This documentary is the right opportunity to tell my story.”
“My fans have always stood by me, even in my absence, and for that, I am eternally grateful. This docu-film on Netflix goes beyond the spotlight to reveal the real me — the highs, the lows, and everything in between.”
Producers Guneet Monga Kapoor and Achin Jain from Sikhya Entertainment highlighted the depth of Honey Singh’s story, stating, “Documenting a career as colourful as Yo Yo Honey Singh’s has been an extremely memorable journey for our crew along with Netflix. It was fascinating to discover how little we knew about the real person behind the stage name. True to the spirit of a docu-film, we’re excited to share the untold aspects of the journey of one of India’s most beloved music icons.”
Director Mozez Singh expressed gratitude for the trust placed in him by Honey Singh. “It has been a privilege to make this film. Honey has given me unprecedented access into his life and the fact that he has trusted me with his story has been a real moment of truth for me, not just as a filmmaker but as a human being too. I’m very proud of Famous and hope the world will love watching it as much as I have loved making it.”
