Popular Indian rapper Badshah has received a hate message on an Instagram* story for condoling the demise of 53-year-old singer KK, who passed away after a live performance in Kolkata city on 31 May.
Badshah paid tribute to KK by sharing a picture of the late singer with a broken heart emoji and wrote, "Why". But he immediately received a hate message from an Instagram user, who wrote "Tu kab marega..(When will you die)".
In response, the rapper posted screenshots of the message and shared what kind of hate artists face sometimes.
He wrote: "What you see is an illusion. What you hear is a lie. Some dying to meet you. Some pray for you to die".
