Honey shared that SRK first asked him to compose a Punjabi track for his film, which he refused. He then asked the superstar to narrate the film’s story which took two and half hours. After this meeting, he went to Mauritius where it struck him about Lungi Dance. He called SRK’s friend Karim and told him that the song is ready.

Honey further said that Karim asked him to mail the song, to which he responded confidently, 'jab banwana tha toh ghar bulaya and ab ban gaya toh mail karo.' (When it was to be made, I was called home and now it is made, you asked to mail). Eventually, he went to SRK and narrated the entire song.

Later, one of the women from the audience asked Honey about the song, ‘Aunty police bula legi’. She happened to be a school principal. Responding to her, the rapper revealed that when he began composing songs, his father would object to it and say that he won’t earn money from it, but his mom had supported him. “I wanted to throw a party when my parents won’t be home. And whenever I would throw one, the neighbourhood aunty would actually call the cops,” he shared.

Meanwhile, during the episode, Honey also revealed that Apache and Amar Singh Chamkila are an inspiration to him. He also shared how lyricist Gulzar improvised the lines of one of his songs for a movie by Vishal Bhardwaj.
