Rapper and music producer Yo Yo Honey Singh paid a heartfelt tribute to legendary composer A.R. Rahman by getting a tattoo in his honour. Honey took to his Instagram handle to share a video of himself getting inked, calling Rahman a “living legend” and expressing his deep respect for the maestro’s contribution to Indian music.
In the video, the 42-year-old rapper is seen getting a tattoo on his back while singing Rahman’s popular track Tu Hi Re, as he gets his name tattooed on his right shoulder blade. He said, “This is for my love for the lovely legend Mr. A.R. Rahman. I love you sir. This is for you. Thank you for blessing me with your music. You are the reason why I am a musician today. I love you forever.”
Sharing the video, Honey wrote, “My third tattoo in one night for my lovely living legend @arrahman sir !! I love you sir thank you for everything.” The rapper has been vocal about his admiration for Rahman and has previously expressed his dream of collaborating with him. Honey Singh even hopes to produce a Grammy-worthy track with Rahman in the future.
In addition to this, he also got the tattoo of his mother’s signature on his arm. In a series of pictures posted, he flaunted his new tattoo that also features a baby representing him in a foetus attached to his mom’s signatures with an umblical chord.
“Got my first TATTOO DONE !! My mums signature THE RICHEST LADY on earth !! I love you mummy shoutout to my blood,” he further added.
