During an appearance on the ABtalks podcast, he disclosed what years of medication had done to his body. He said, “I was on heavy medication for seven years.

Honey Singh talks about seven years of isolation from the world
Honey Singh also described the extent to which his condition forced him to withdraw entirely. After walking off stage mid-performance, he shut himself away completely. He said, “Then I called my sister and told her that something was happening to me. She said I would still have to do the show. I left midway after singing two songs. After that, I stayed inside my house for seven years. I didn’t want my fans to see me in that condition. I locked myself inside and didn’t even meet my childhood friends. There was no communication, no phone calls, no TV, no internet. People used to think the devil was talking to me.”The singer emphasised that getting clean was only the beginning of a much longer road back. “You won’t believe it, but even after I stopped doing drugs in 2014, it still took me seven to eight years to recover,” he revealed.
