Yo Yo Honey Singh Famous review: Lacking the rapper’s edge, this documentary has nothing much to offer
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.
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 for the expletive-laden song ‘Ch*t’ are touched upon- and immediately brushed aside when Singh says ‘I didn’t make it’. Well, he has said the same in the past, too, in countless interviews. What makes this docu any different then?
