Ed Sheeran, who is back in India to perform at the last leg of his ‘+–=÷× Mathematics Tour’ in Mumbai seems to be in awe of the country and the films that the subcontinent makes. From posing with Shah Rukh Khan, aping his signature pose to dancing to “Butta Bomma” alongside Armaan Malik, the English singer-songwriter is not missing any chance to appreciate Indian films as well as hanging out with Bollywood stars. In an interview with India Today, Ed called SS Ramajouli’s RRR “incredible.’” “RRR is mental. It is an incredible film,” he said. The film stars Ram Charan, Jr NTR and Alia Bhatt in leading roles. The film’s song “Naatu Naatu” won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 2023 and Golden Globes in the Best Original Song category.
In a recent interview with Zoom, the singer expressed his desire to work with Shah Rukh Khan, whom he called the “biggest superstar.”
Sharing his love for the country, where he returned the second time — he earlier performed in Mumbai in 2019 — the “Perfect” hitmaker said he loves Indians’ vibrant personalities which match his own. “I really feel the ‘love’ here, in India. Sometimes you can play in places and people can be very subdued. Like, even if they are feeling (the vibe) inside them, you can never read how people feel. I have played in certain countries where people have a subdued reaction, but here, in India, it’s a vibrant country. People are so excited! I have the same personality, so I like that (sic).”
Ed, who arrived in Mumbai on March 12, and is seen partying with many celebrities, also performed at a school in Dharavi. He is all set to perform on March 16.
