Justin Bieber, the international pop icon, has been making the headlines ever since he performed at his maiden concert in India. The singer had come to Mumbai for his Purpose World Tour. And while several things were reported about the star, one of the first few things that went viral during his visit to the country was Justin interacting with underprivileged kids in a bus. Though everyone reported about it a couple of days back, only a few people realised how the innocent kids failed to recognise Bieber. In fact, we even heard a couple of kids addressing him as Indian rapper – Yo Yo Honey Singh. In a video posted on social media, which has been grabbing a lot of eyeballs and has become a topic of discussion, the kids are seen innocently shouting out to him as Yo Yo Honey Singh.” JB, however, kept interacting with the kids, hugging them and even playing with them.
Honey Singh has been a popular name in the Indian music industry, so much so that his name is used as a synonym to pop music. The music sensation’s popularity spreads across the length and breadth of the country, with the fans residing across quarters. Yo Yo seems to hold a prime spot in the hearts of the Indian audience, with his songs having topped charts and his chartbuster Dheere Dheere being the first Indian song to cross 200 million views. So when Bieber came and the kids in Dharavi were informed that a pop star is coming to visit them, you cannot blame them to get confused with one of the biggest stars of the country.
