Rapper Naezy, also known as Naved Sheikh, one of the contestants on Bigg Boss OTT 3, often shares intriguing stories from his life. He has made several surprising revelations on the show, from discussing the negative impact of Gully Boy on his life to struggling with a lack of funds to make music. In the latest episode, Naezy opened up once again, sharing how his parents were against his passion for rap.
In last night’s episode, Naezy was seen telling Ranveer about his lifelong passion for cinema. He revealed that he loved watching films and listening to music, but his parents would not allow him to indulge in these activities.
Naezy said, “Maine bahut movies dekha when I was growing up. Main ghar waalon se bach bach ke chup chup ke (I watched a lot of movies when I was growing up. I would hide and sneak around to avoid getting caught by my family).” When Ranveer asked why, Naezy replied, “Ghar par mana karte the—no theatre, no TV, nothing. No music (At home, they forbade it—no theater, no TV, nothing. No music at all).”
Ranveer guessed it was because of an orthodox family background, to which Naezy agreed. He then asked how Naezy managed to pursue his passion for music. Naezy responded, “Chup chup ke, I became a rebel now. It was very difficult to convince my parents but kis hadh tak main kamiyab hua, ab 10 saal hogaye na mujhe, unko ab thoda toh samajhta hai, ke jaane do tera dil kar raha hai toh tu kar le. Tu galat hai, sahi hai woh Allah ko pata hai, tujhe pata hai. Aisi understanding mein hoon main. Lekin family mein baaki logon ne bhi thoda bhadkaya (I used to sneak around and now I’ve become a rebel. It was very difficult to convince my parents, but over the past 10 years, they have somewhat come to understand. Now they tell me, ‘Go ahead and do what you love. Whether it’s right or wrong, only Allah knows, and you know.’ That’s the understanding we have now. However, other family members also stirred things up a bit).”
Ranveer added, “The people who instigate parents are the ones who are jealous of your success. They don’t like that someone else’s son is doing well in life. This is human nature.”
