Yo Yo Honey Singh Famous review: Lacking the rapper’s edge, this documentary has nothing much to offer

Yo Yo Honey Singh Famous review: The Netflix documentary offers no new insights on the popular rapper’s controversial-yet-dazzling life. Yo Yo Honey Singh: Famous, a documentary on the life of the rapper-singer is out.

Unfortunately, the sole thing intriguing about it remains its teaser which dropped recently and made tall claims that this would be a ‘tell-all’. (Also read: Honey Singh recalls ‘wishing for death’ as he talks about fighting mental illness in his documentary)

Directed by Mozez Singh, known for directing the series Human, and produced by Guneet Monga, who has backed offbeat content, the story of Yo Yo has great potential.

A Delhi boy with humble beginnings goes on to become someone who left a big mark on the Indian music scene- the audience laps up a good underdog story. The docu starts off with footage of his teen days- and establishes a promising note instantly.

Nothing new to offer

However, it all just feels a bit tilted in Singh’s favour. The line of questioning seems to be something straight out of a typical masala film. The biggest controversies Honey found himself in, including being credited Well, he has said the same in the past, too, in countless interviews. What makes this docu any different then?

Same goes for the rumour about actor Shah Rukh Khan allegedly slapping Yo Yo during a concert tour. Yo Yo and his sister simply say ‘unhone nahi maara tha’- he has already claimed the same in the past as well. As for the bipolar diagnosis he received- he says ‘aaj tak kisi ko nahi bataya kya hua tha’- except he has been open about it all these years, and kudos to him for that.

There’s nothing revelatory about Yo Yo Honey Singh: Famous. One doesn’t come away learning something new or surprising about the person in question. Yes, his family’s appearance does make it more human. Honey breaking down as he recalls being at home, jobless, does tug at one’s heart, so does the family’s helplessness as they grappled with his deteriorating mental health at one point.

The big misses

Random sequences like a ‘super fan’ suddenly meeting the rapper on the roads at night and crying as he sings for her- that feeling of it being staged further brings down the credibility. When asked about his controversial divorce from Shalini some time back, Singh simply says ‘We have signed a MoU.

so I can’t talk about it’ I wonder then what’s the point of this Docu apart from merely being a compilation of things the singer has already revealed in the past.For example, there’s nothing about Mafia Mundeer apart from a fleeting mention when talking about a controversial song.

Overall, Yo Yo Honey Singh: Famous could have been so much more. But it’s reduced to being a whitewashing attempt, much like Sanju, which aims at only glorifying the subject, rather than being an objective take.

The documentary Yo Yo Honey Singh: Famous promises an intimate look into the life and career of the iconic Indian rapper but falls short of expectations. While it touches on his rise to fame and struggles with mental health, the narrative lacks depth and fails to capture the raw.

energy and charisma that made Honey Singh a sensation. The storytelling feels superficial, offering little insight into his creative process or the controversies that shaped his career. Fans hoping for an authentic exploration of the rapper’s journey may find this documentary underwhelming and lacking the edge that defined his music.
