Badshah sports eye patch after injury, links the injury to The Ba***ds of Bollywood: ‘Avtar ji ka mukka…’

Though the caption struck a light-hearted tone, the situation behind the eye patch is more serious. According to a Hindustan Times report, Badshah sustained a real eye injury during the final show of his North America tour. Something entered his eye at the beginning of the set. Despite the discomfort, he continued to perform. Upon returning to India, a doctor diagnosed him with a corneal abrasion after noticing his constant eye irritation. He later underwent a minor surgical procedure and was advised to wear an eye patch for five days.

The incident marked an unexpected end to what has been a record-breaking tour for the artist. The Unfinished Tour raked in over $6 million in ticket sales and drew more than 45,000 fans across sold-out venues in New Jersey, Virginia, Oakland, Seattle, Dallas, and Chicago. The production itself was reportedly worth $2 million, underscoring the scale and ambition of the tour.

Meanwhile, Aryan Khan’s directorial debut, The Ba***ds of Bollywood, continues to dominate Netflix globally. Produced under Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment and co-created by Bilal Siddiqui and Manav Chauhan, the show has sparked viral trends across social media, with memes and reels flooding the internet.
