In the beginning of 2021, when I got tested positive for Covid and was really sick, I listened to ‘Na Na Na Na re Na re Na re’ And the coronavirus got scared and left my body. I got better instantly. Thanks to your unique Pop Folk Ethnic Music Style that healed me. 🙏🏻

However, the singer has been surrounded by controversies as his farmhouse near Damdama Lake in Sohna was sealed by the Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP).
Moreover, in July 2022, he was sentenced to 2 years of jail in a 2003 human trafficking case by the Patiala court. In 2003, a case was registered against Daler Mehndi and his brother Shamsher Singh -- who died in October 2017 -- and two others, after it was alleged that the accused took money from people to the tune of Rs 1 crore on the pretext of taking them abroad.
On the work front, Daker Mehndi recently released the song 'Gadbad Gadbad' on the occasion of Lohri.
