Honey Singh Cancels Punjab Concert, Exits Venue Over Security Concerns: Report

Rapper-singer Honey Singh recently cancelled his performance at an award show in Mohali, Punjab, citing security concerns.

According to India Today, Singh had arrived at the venue but pulled out after his security team was denied entry. Reportedly, the organisers and Punjab police already had security arrangements in place, but Singh insisted on having his own safety personnel, leading to a disagreement.

“A source told India Today, ‘As per the protocols, they did not allow any other external members on the ground for anyone. Honey Singh was persistent in getting his own safety unit as a precaution. Despite discussions, the organisers could not agree, and he left the venue, refusing to perform.’”

The incident reportedly occurred on August 23, and neither Honey Singh nor his team has issued a statement so far.

Meanwhile, Honey Singh recently collaborated with Shehnaaz Gill for his debut production project, Ikk Kudi, a Punjabi-language film written and directed by Amarjit. Originally scheduled for release on June 13, 2025, the film is now set to release on September 19 to coincide with the festive season.

In addition, Honey Singh is set to appear in a new music video titled Sajna. The first look, shared on Instagram, has impressed fans with its scale and glamour. The teaser hints at a collaboration blending Singh’s signature energy and edge with Shehnaaz Gill’s captivating presence, offering a fresh, modern twist on their combined star power.
