Great feeling to perform after such a long time: Honey Singh

Popular rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh, who set the stage on fire with his performance at an award function in Dubai after an 18-month hiatus, feels great to perform after a long time.

"I am overwhelmed with the response and love showered on my performance. It was a great feeling to perform after such a long time," Singh said in a statement.

The "Blue eyes" crooner was missing from the limelight for 18 months due to his struggle with bipolar disorder and alcoholism.

Singh, who was one of the performers at the event, was seen shaking a leg with Bollywood' livewire actor Ranveer Singh who did an impromptu dance to the song "Pinga". It was picturised on actresses Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra from filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansal's magnum opus "Bajirao Mastani".

The "Angrezi beat" rapper also shared the stage with actress Jacqueline Fernandez on the hit number "Yaar naa miley" from the Salman Khan starrer "Kick".

Actor Varun Dhawan, who is known for his electrifying dance moves, even dedicated a special on-the-spot rap song for the "Dheere dheere" crooner to welcome him on stage.
