Controversial release

Badshah's song Tateeree, released on March 1, 2026, has been facing backlash from the Haryana Women's Commission and various social organizations.

The commission served him a notice on March 6, 2026, summoning him to the SP office in Panipat on March 13.

However, the singer failed to appear, reportedly due to prior commitments.

Following public objections to the song over its "indecent" lyrics and visuals, Panchkula Police removed it from YouTube.
