Honey Singh Clarifies Delhi Concert Comment 'Gaadi Mein S*x Karo', Says It Was For Gen Z: New Gen Is Suffering

Yo Yo Honey Singh has issued an apology after a comment made at Nanku-Karun's concert in Delhi went viral. In a video shared on Instagram on 15 January, Yo Yo Honey Singh said the remark was meant as a health message for young listeners but many people found the language offensive.

The incident took place while Yo Yo Honey Singh was performing as a guest act at the Delhi show. During the performance, Yo Yo Honey Singh told the crowd to have sex in a car because of the cold weather. The line drew sharp criticism online, with several users objecting to the choice of words.

Yo Yo Honey Singh apology video and explanation

In the Instagram video, Yo Yo Honey Singh tried to explain how the controversial comment came about. Yo Yo Honey Singh said, "I was just a guest on the show and about two days before the concert, I had lunch with some gynaecologists and some sexologists. I was talking to them and they told me that the young generation is suffering a lot from sexually transmitted diseases."

Continuing in the same video, Yo Yo Honey Singh added, "This thing is going on and a lot of people are having unsafe sex. So when I went to this show, when I saw the Gen Z audience, I thought that I should give a message to Gen Z in their language that you should not have unprotected sex, use a condom."

Yo Yo Honey Singh apology, criticism and audience reaction

Yo Yo Honey Singh said the intention was to spread awareness in a style that Gen Z understands. However, Yo Yo Honey Singh acknowledged that the attempt backfired. Many people on social media flagged the sentence as vulgar rather than educational, and questioned the way the message was framed at a public concert.

Yo Yo Honey Singh addressed those complaints directly, saying in the video, "But I thought that in the language of OTT, the kind of OTT and films that Gen Z is watching these days, if I talk in that language, they will understand more. But many people found that language very bad. I apologise to all of you who found my language bad. I had no intention of insulting anyone. And man is a puppet of mistakes. I will try not to make such mistakes again after today. I will control my language when I say something and who I will say it to and how I will say it. And I will be careful that this thing can be edited and made viral in a wrong way. So anyway, I apologise to all of you."

Isme na gaadi mein lene mein bada maza aata hai, itni thand mein. Gaadi mein sex karo, Dilli ki thand mein. Use condoms guys, please. Play safe."
